The word resist is found 10 times in the NKJ Bible

Daniel 1 verse, Matthew 1 verse, Luke 1 verse, Acts 2 verses, Romans 1 verse, 2 Timothy 1 verse,

James 2 verses, 1 Peter 1 verse.

In the New Testament verses the word is a translation of the Greek word 'anthistemi' which means to withstand, to oppose, resist.

In English the word resist can have slightly different meanings for example it can mean:

If you resist something such as change, you refuse to accept it.

Or it can mean you fight back against something, someone.

Or you can resist a temptation; stop yourself from doing something.
