No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man

1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Temptation itself is not sin and many of us need to be reminded of that. To be human means that we will be tempted. The temptation itself is different for different people, in fact it fits the nature of that person. The level of temptation is according to the level of control or inner nature of that person. It may confuse people, but it actually raises the awareness of what is good and bad. God allows us to be tempted to the degree we can bear and He walks with us through it.

temptation, overtaken, faithful, escape, bear
