Discovery Bible Study: Victory over Sin
Section 1: Original Sin

The Process of Sin: Genesis 3:1-24


 * What caught your attention (or What did you like best?) Why?
 * Why did Adam and Eve fall into sin?
 * List the process of the fall

Summary:
 * We don’t know the truth (don’t know God’s Word or are confused about the truth or -believe a lie – truth is mixed with non-truth)
 * We don’t believe (or are unsure about) what God says. Satan tries to raise doubts using deceit and lies (that’s the reason why he is called the deceiver).
 * We give into our natural desires.

Section 2: Temptations

Worldly Desires: 1 John 2:15-17

Temptation: James 1:13-15


 * What caught your attention (or What did you like best?) Why?
 * How can Satan tempt people in each of these ways? Ask participants to share specific examples.

Summary:

Section 3: Gaining the Victory

Jesus had Victory over Temptation: Luke 4:1-13

Truth about Sin: Romans 6:6-11

Our Victory over Temptation: Romans 6:12-14; 1 Peter 5:8-9; James 4:6-10; James 5:16


 * What caught your attention (or What did you like best?) Why?
 * What actions can we take to overcome sin?

Summary: Submit, Resist, Come Near, Victory

One: Submit


 * Confess that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior (Romans 10:9-10).
 * Say James 4:6-8 to remind you about the way out of temptation
 * Remember your commitment that the old self is “dead” (Romans 6:11).
 * Offer yourself to God in prayer (Romans 6:13).

Two: Resist


 * Remember you have authority over the powers of darkness in Jesus Christ (Luke 10:17-19; Romans 6:6-7).
 * Stand firm in resisting Satan’s deception and temptations (1 Peter 5:8-9).
 * Say Scriptures that remind you of the truth about that situation (Luke 4:1-11).

Three: Come Near


 * Pray asking for Jesus’ strength to resist the spirit or temptation. Pray continually until you can have victory and give thanks (Philippians 4:6-7).
 * Ask other believers to pray with you (James 5:16).

Fourth: Victory


 * Experience the peace of God (Philippians 4:6-7).
 * Give thanks to God every time you have victory over temptation (1 Thessalonians 5:18).

''There is a normal process of falling into sin: See > Desire (increasingly) > Give into sin > Eexperience the consequences of sin (judgment/death). We can practice these four points to help us overcome temptation and sin: Submit, Resist, Come Near, Victory. One of the purposes of the church is to provide a community of believers to help us fight temptation to sin.''
