Passage: Matthew 18:7* "Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Such things must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!" — Jesus Christ Questions 1. What does this verse say about temptations to sin?   2. Do any of your friends or associates think it's OK to surf porn sites because you do?   Practical help Maybe you're at a place with your porn habit that instead of dealing with its destructive effects you're rationalizing it as an acceptable activity? Maybe you're doing this by encouraging others to try it? After all, the more people you know who think it's OK, the more OK it seems to be. If this is where you're at, then let this verse be a wake-up call. Temptations to sin are always going to lay before you, and you're not always going to resist them. The warning here is that sin will always be sin no matter how you package it. If you find you're easing the guilt by starting an "Acceptability Club," then you'd best put the brakes on that direction and say whoa, or the next step may lead to woe! eXXit homepage Index of three-minute studies Copyright 1999 by eXXit *Scriptures are from The Holy Bible: New International Version, © Copyright 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society.
