Deliver Me Not Into Temptation July 30, 2025

True salvation

is deliverance,

from our own self-will

and our worldly self-life

in exchange for God’s life.

Deliverance

from the power of evil

is not accomplished,

by merely,

“turning over a new leaf,”

or by

making a few

superficial changes

in how we live.

True deliverance

saves us from

the “I will”

that is the root of all sin.

Satan’s original

and most successful temptation

is that we can “be like God.”

Man’s greatest

and most destructive error

is the self-centered determination,

that we

are the lord of our life.

If Christ

is not Lord of all

He

is not Lord at all.
