In this lesson, The Lordly Dish of Butter, we learn, temptation to the devil, is almost a sport. A game. But to those who are serving God, temptation is a matter of life and death. Temptation is not a sin for we will be tempted every day of our life. However, the challenge with temptation is, overcoming it in such a way, that it does not lead to our own personal failure. Our temptations are no different than anyone else's. Except that, we have probably become more spiritually desensitized to our own shortcomings than we have learned to live with them. We have to awaken out of our own sleep before it is too late!
