Part 2
So, I believe self-control goes hand in hand with it. Whereas temptation comes from Satan, self-control comes from Christ. And it all comes down to your choice between them.

Do you know how it feels to be sinning sexually and God allowing self-control to distract you? It's fine if you choose God. But if you continue to be tempted, you will ask God and tell him that this is the last time, just an excuse to ignore him this time and choose your interest.
