In this book, Young discusses temptation. He argues that Jesus knew temptation, and that, even though his temptation may not have been identical to human temptation, the experiences are comparable. He asserts that each person has an inclination to do wrong things, and that Christians are not exempt from temptation. Drawing from Wesley, the author differentiates between the heaviness of temptation and darkness of disobedience. Young also discusses the idea of God permitting the temptation of humans, which usually stem from three areas: the world, the flesh in its sinful nature, and the devil. He then discusses Biblical examples of temptation and how to overcome temptation. Young concludes with an exhortation to believers to expect, identify, and battle temptation when it arises.
