428. What is meant in the Lord's Prayer by temptation ? Any conjuncture of circumstances in which there is imminent danger of losing the faith, or falling into great sin. 429. Whence come such temptations? From our flesh, from the world, or other people, and from the devil. 430. What do we ask in these words of the prayer, Lead us not into temptation? First, that God suffer us not to be led into temptation; secondly, that if it be needful for us to be tried and purified through temptation, he give us not up wholly to temptation, nor suffer us to fall.
