Living the Victorious Life
James 1:12-18
Verse 12
1 John 2:15-16-“Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world.”
1 Peter 5:8-“Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.”

No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.”
1 John 4:8-“He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”
