Day 204. What are the sources of temptation? (2025)

Today is day 204 and we are on the section The Sixth Petition: "And lead us not into temptation".

204. What are the sources of temptation?

I am tempted by the false promises of the world, the selfish desires of my flesh, and the lies of the devil, all of which war against God and my spiritual well-being. (Genesis 3:1–8; Proverbs 30:7–9; Mark 7:15; James 1:13; 1 John 2:15–17)

We will conclude today with The First Collect for Compline found on page 63 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
