What does the Bible say about temptations?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that temptations are allowed by God for our growth and to demonstrate His power in our weakness.

The Scriptures affirm that God permits temptations to test and purify His people. In James 1:2-4, believers are encouraged to count it all joy when facing trials, as these produce perseverance and maturity in faith. Additionally, Romans 8:28 reminds us that all things, including temptations, work together for the good of those who love God. Through these trials, we are humbled, brought to a deeper dependence on God's grace, and fortified in our faith.
