Back Today's
Three-minute Bible Study
Passage:
Proverbs
7:6-10* 7. I saw among
the simple, I noticed among the young men, a youth who
lacked judgment. 8. He was going
down the street near her corner, walking along in the
direction of her house 9. at twilight,
as the day was fading, as the dark of night set
in. 10. Then out
came a woman to meet him, dressed like a prostitute
and with crafty intent. Questions 2. How are these
actions similar to those that lead people to Internet
pornography? 3. What can the
youth do to avoid further entrapment? 4. What are two
steps you can do right now to escape web
porn? Practical
help 2.
Then ask him to help you focus on avoiding that
one step. 3.
Avoid looking downstream at what would have
been subsequent steps to the temptation. Just
focus on the next step. 4. Then
step back. Many people
like you have stepped back with God's help.
They're cheering you on to do likewise. You can do
it!

Welcome
to eXXit, the web site designed to help you stand
strong in the face of sexual temptation.6. At the
window of my house I looked out through the
lattice.
1. What
actions led the youth to cross paths with the
prostitute?
The path
to Internet pornography is not a slippery slope. It's
a series of steps that can be interrupted at any time.
If you're on the path to web porn (whether for the
first time or a return visit), you can reverse course
right now. How?
1.
Ask God to help you identify the next
step leading to the current temptation.
