Resisting evil is something we have the power to do; but many have refused to accept this extraordinary power for the sake of vain pleasures. What I mean by that is- many don’t resist evil, for reasons, the pleasures derived are desired to be continued.
Definitely, our conscious behaviors have proven to be different; therefore, allowing everyone to calculate (resisting evil) to suit himself. However, the Bible defines, resisting evil as, “To Stand Against.” “From whence come wars and fighting among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members?” James 4:1
"To Stand Against," begins with us working on ourselves. “Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” James 4: 7 By strengthening our moral awareness we can do a profound inward check. First, we must create a conscious recall in our minds, by accepting Jesus Christ as our Savior. His Grace is the forgiving power, and his blood cleanses us from all evil, and blots out our transgressions. Then, as we look in the mirror, we don’t see the next person, but we realize the person starring back at us is capable of resisting evil.
