Temptation: anything that promises satisfaction at the cost of obedience to God.
What are some examples of temptations?
“If you think you can’t fall into sexual sin, then you’re godlier than David, stronger than Samson, and wiser than Solomon.”
– Bill Perkins (Christianity Today)

What are the differences between temptations and tests?
"Why would I put myself in a position to resist a temptation in the future - when I have the power to eliminate it today."
