scripture
James 1:13-15
When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
En Espanol, Santiago 1:13-15

Knowledge of God's Word is a bulwark against deception, temptation, accusation, even persecution.

scripture
Psalm 141:3-4
Set a guard over my mouth, LORD; keep watch over the door of my lips.
Do not let my heart be drawn to what is evil so that I take part in wicked deeds along with those who are evildoers; do not let me eat their delicacies.
En Espanol, Salmos 141:3-4

While you are proclaiming peace with your lips, be careful to have it even more fully in your heart.

dW
scripture
Jonah 1:1-3
The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD.
En Espanol, Jonás 1:1-3
quote
Man can certainly flee from God but he cannot escape him. He can certainly hate God and be hateful to God, but he cannot change into its opposite the eternal love of God which triumphs even in his hate.
Karl Barth
