If you apply a magnet to the end of a needle that moves freely on its pivot,the needle affected by the strong attraction-approaches the magnet as if it loved it.Reverse the order and apply the magnet now to the other pole-the magnet and the needle shrinks away trembling as if it did not love but hated it.
So it is with temptation.One man rushes into the arms of vice- another recoils from it in horror.
According to the nature it addresses is holy or unholy- temptation attracts or repels- is loved or hated.
What do you do when you are tempted?
