“耶和华这样说: “你们要站在路上察看, 寻访远古的路径, 看哪一条是美善的路,就走在其中; 这样,你们心里就必得安息。 他们却说:‘我们不走在其中。’”
耶利米书 6:16
“This is what the Lord says: “Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, ‘We will not walk in it.’”
Jeremiah 6:16
Temptation is a choice between the old path (God's will for us) and a new path provided by Satan. So often Satan's path is presented to us as a shortcut to happiness, prosperity, and accomplishment.
However, this path leads us away from God and the blessings He longs to give us. Let's not be like the people of God in Jeremiah's day who refused God's way and said, "We will not walk in it." The outcome of their choice was their own destruction.
