One of the 101 Lies Taught In Church Every Sunday. You can see the rest on my blog at www.gracewalkministries.blogspot.com or through my web site at www.gracewalk.org (more)
I agree that striving in the flesh is not the way to overcome temptation. Faith, trust and rest in Him to be the overcomer within you.

Psalm 119:11 "Your Word have I hidden in my heart that I may not sin against you."
