    About this ebook

    I am pleased to write a description which gives you a glimpse at this book Stand Firm Not to Fall. First of all, let me say that I am a volunteer partner with my readers with a view to contributing towards their attainment of the best lifestyle that can produce success in life for them.
    This book calls the attention of the reader to the deceptive nature of temptation, which, coupled with man’s vulnerability to sin, leaves the tempted helpless unless he or she is equipped to resist the temptation.
    The book defines temptation, discusses how temptation develops into sin and how sin grows continually if not renounced. The reader is given tips on how to resist temptation and avoid the afflictions which those who yield to it suffer. Personal integrity is the greatest wish I have for the reader.
    Stand Firm Not to Fall is a little over five thousand words and is number 3 in the series I have named ‘King Solomon’s Way.’ Books in the series are composed of concise ideas, similar to King Solomon’s proverbs that convey truth, exhortation, wisdom, and counsel. They are written for people of all levels of Christian spirituality, meant to help the weak grow strong and the strong gain even more strength.
