God has made us pure

Do not bring a detestable thing into your house or you, like it, will be set apart for destruction. Utterly abhor and detest it, for it is set apart for destruction. — Deuteronomy 7:26

A little corruption, a little poison, and a little rotten are all oxymorons. God has made us pure and perfect in Jesus. What a glorious thought! Why would we want to stain his perfection with what is evil. Our Father wants us to dedicate ourselves to him, and to living as his holy people (Rom. 12:1-2; 1 Pet. 1:13-16).

Tempt 

. Why do you tempt the Lord

Exodus 17:2

So they quarreled with Moses and said, “Give us water  to drink.” 

 Moses replied, “Why do you quarrel with me? Why do you put the Lord to the test?”

. They even tempt God

Malachi 3:15

But now we call the arrogant  blessed. Certainly evildoers  prosper,  and even when they put God to the test, they get away with it.’”

. Tempt the LORD your God

Matthew 4:7

Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”

. That Satan dos not tempt

1 Corinthians 10:9

We should not test Christ,  as some of them did—and were killed by snakes.

. Nor does He Himself tempt

James 1:13

When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone;

Bible Tells Us  – 

.Timeless Saviour – John 8:58

“Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born,  I am!”
