“Let
men look for it that are exposed unto temptations, as who is not? They will
have a season wherein their solicitations will be more urgent, their reasonings
more plausible, pretences more glorious, hopes of recovery more appearing,
opportunities more broad and open, the doors of evil made more beautiful than
ever they have been. Blessed is he who is prepared for such a season; without
which there is no escaping.” – John Owen, Of
Temptation, in The Works of John Owen, Volume 6: Temptation and Sin, 98-99.
