Temptation and how to overcome it

Temptation is a time of trial. It is a time of test. You can not be tempted above you powers. God can't tempt any man neither he tempted any man.
The first point here is to point out those who were tempted in the Bible but failed. The first is David. David was tempted from what he saw. He saw a woman bathing 🛀. He could not resist.Another one is Gehazi he was tempted of possession that Naman brought to his Master.That cost him to be leprous and he lost the priesthood. Absalom was tempted of power.He could not resist that cost him his life. You should not be intoxicated by power. Judas was tempted by money 💰 be sold our Lord.Solomon was tempted by women 👭 he could not resist but was carried away by woman 👭 and their idols.
However there are characters in the Bible who  were tempted but overcame the temptations.
The first is Abraham. Another one is Job he was tempted even until death but he overcame.Joseph was tempted of a woman 👩  but he resisted and he overcame. Our Lord Jesus overcame the temptations of the devil when he was tempted thrice.
 The last point is how to over the temptation. To overcome temptation you use the word of God. That is what Jesus used to overcome the devil.You can overcome temptation by been prayerful. You can overcome temptation my always doing your devotion. You can overcome temptation by always fellowshiping with brethren.You can overcome temptation my sharing the things that God has done for you. You can overcome temptation by always pleading the blood of Jesus. Note that the sources of the temptation is the devil and sometimes the devil  uses human beings.

Hooliganism and thuggery in the Bible

 If you read John 8:1-the end you will see hooliganism in that chapter. They gave it to Jesus Jesus gave it back to them. Jesus understood their mindset from that engagement. Hooliganism and thuggery shouldn't be in our society. My research in school was on political thuggery. That chapter was pure Judaism thuggery. It was Israelites thuggery. They almost killed Jesus. If you are to settle a matter don't settle it with hooliganism and thuggery. It is better to dialogue and peacefully demand for your right. The daughters of Zelophehard demanded for their inheritance in dialogue with the leaders of Israel. They demanded for their right peacefully. People in every nation shouldn't demand for their rights in hooliganism and thuggery manner. Students shouldn't burn down school properties,destroy school properties and destabilize the schools in demand for their rights. Infact,schooling is a privilege so it shouldn't be misunderstood. If you want to demand for your right d...
