Now that you are a Christian that does not mean that life will be
without any difficulties. Now you have an enemy called the devil. He is
going to oppose you and try anything within his power to stunt your
Christian growth. Many of the attacks of the devil come through trials
and temptations. To be tempted is not a sin, even Jesus was tempted
(Hebrews 4:15). It is only sin when we fall and submit to the
temptation. God promises us that He will never allow the devil to tempt
us beyond what we are able to resist.

"No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is
faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But
when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can
stand up under it." 1 Corinthians 10:13

Everyone is born with a nature that likes to sin (Psalm 51:5). When we
accept Jesus, we are born again (John 3:3) and this sinful nature dies
and a new nature is born (Romans 6:5-6). This new nature likes to follow
and obey God. Why then do we still struggle with sin? The sinful nature
is dead (Romans 6:8, 11, 12) but our flesh is still alive and still
attracted to sin. It is against the flesh that we must fight. How can we
win? The victory can only be found in Christ. We need to put on the mind
of Christ and learn to live by the power of His Spirit. Read Galatians
5:16-26 to learn how to live the victorious Christian life.
