Describes the broader spiritual context of temptation as a war
and leads believers to a rich understanding of the triumph they
have in Christ.
Although temptation is a common and well-acknowledged part of
the human experience, few realize the truth behind temptation and
fewer still know how to defeat it. Tempted and Tried will not
reassure Christians by claiming that temptation is less powerful or
less prevalent than it is; instead, it will prepare believers for
battle by telling the truth about the cosmic war that is raging.
Moore shows that the temptation of every Christian is part of a
broader conspiracy against God, a conspiracy that confronts
everyone who shares the flesh of Jesus through human birth and
especially confronts those who share the Spirit of Christ through
the new birth of redemption.
Moore walks readers through the Devil's ancient strategies for
temptation revealed in Jesus' wilderness testing. Moore considers
how those strategies might appear in a contemporary context and
points readers to a way of escape. Tempted and Tried will remind
Christians that temptation must be understood in terms of warfare,
encouraging them with the truth that victory has already been
secured through the triumph of Christ.
