The Difference between Temptation and Sin

Temptation is not a sin; temptation is an opportunity to sin or to worship God. Jesus was tempted. You will be tempted. Jesus said no to temptation and yes to God. And you can do that by the power of the Holy Spirit.

This clip is excerpted from the sermon "Receive Power" part #4 of our current sermon series, God's Work, Our Witness. It was recorded at Mars Hill Church Albuquerque in New Mexico and released online January 1, 2012.

The logic we must use to combat satanic LGBT doctrine.

[Galatians112]

@iLLmaticRhymes and putting your question in-line with the teaching here, when you get tempted to do drugs, that is not sin, but when you do drug, it becomes sin.

[Galatians112]

@iLLmaticRhymes anything that does not please God is sin... Smoking Marijuana is not pleasing to God, so yes, it's a sin. In smoking marijuana, you are being a bad steward of your body and life, and you are feeding your flesh and not trusting God and finding your satisfaction in Him alone. I pray God gives you the grace to resist doing drugs if you do so already.

#ShortAnswer.... Yes, it's a sin.
