"The
Bible mentions three great sources of temptation--the world,
the flesh and Satan. The outward world is so correlated to our
susceptibilities as to excite them and thus beget a temptation
to self-indulgence. The flesh with its appetites and passions
clamor for gratification; and hence the flesh and the outward
world become temptations. Satan also presents his temptations
in every form which subtle malignity can devise."
