Welcome
to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand
strong in the face of sexual temptation. With this study, we
take a third look at a short passage in the book of
Job. Passage:
Job 31:1-4
(New International Version*) 2. For what is man's lot
from God above, his heritage from the Almighty on
high? 3. Is it not ruin for the
wicked, disaster for those who do wrong? 4. Does he not see my
ways and count my every step? Questions 2. When it's two in the
morning, and the office door is closed, and everyone
else is asleep, and you're being really quiet, who
knows which web sites you visit? Who counts every

help 14. from his dwelling
place he watches all who live on earth
— 15. he who forms the

loves you. He wants you to make the right choices. In
fact, He will empower you to make them if you'll trust
Him to. If you're not sure how to trust Him, surf to
"Not
a Christian or Are
Unsure?".

girl.
1. How often do you
come within one mouse click of entering a porn site
and base your next move on something like this:
"Nobody but me knows, and God probably isn't paying
attention"?
The Bible says that God
knows and sees all. Today's study passage is just one
example. Another is Psalm 33:13-15 (New International
Version*).
13. From heaven
the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;
