- Go to TEMPTATION! IS IT GOOD OR BAD?? MY OPINION. ------------------------------
I think it was Oscar Wilde who said
"The only way to deal with temptation is to yield to it.
I really do believe in yielding to temptation. To resist temptation is to deny oneself pleasure. I don't believe God wants us to do that. He gave us pleasurable things for us to enjoy.
I used to have a bumper sticker that said "Lead me not into temptation, I can find it myself."
