Listen to the original Jack:

Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is. After all, you find out the strength of the German army by fighting against it, not by giving in. You find out the strength of a wind by trying to talk against it, not by lying down. A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in. We never find out the strength of the evil impulse inside us until we try to fight it: and Christ , because He was the only man who never yielded to temptation, is also the only man who knows to the full what temptation means - the only complete realist.
-C.S. Lewis

WOW! What power, what strength, what sheer goodness to resist temptation for a lifetime, that like a snowball down a hill would have only increased in size and intensity. I'll never read the following verse the same way again:

For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet was without sin. (Hebrews 4:15)

When I think of it that way, Jesus isn't just good. He isn't just better than us. He's waaay gooder than I ever realized.
