The Truth About Temptation
Nothing is as it appears
Temptation explained by Joel Goldsmith:
The truth is that we are not in the world: the world is in us, and we are externalizing in our lives our own states of consciousness.
Jesus was by himself, alone, when suddenly the devil appeared before him. That was the appearance, but there was no devil there. The devil was what was being projected out of his state of consciousness. He was not being tempted from outside; he was being tempted from within.
We always project the temptation so that it appears outside of us.
No thing and no one have the power to tempt any one of us except insofar as they are facets of whatever our own weakness may be.
No one really has dominion in his life until he comes to an understanding of the truth that he embraces within his own consciousness all that he is to externalize in his experience.
Realize that the perception of temptation has no power and it will dissolve before your very eyes.
