Re: What is the opposite of temptation?
- Strength to say "no" to things that might harm you or lead you astray
- Ability to make good choices and stick to them
- Power to resist things that might be appealing but aren't good for you
- Willpower to stay focused on what's important and right
In essence, it's about being in control of your thoughts, feelings, and actions, and making choices that align with your values and goals.

Re: What is the opposite of temptation?
1. Self-control
2. Resistance
3. Discipline
4. Willpower
5. Virtue
6. Integrity
7. Character
8. Moral strength
9. Inner strength
10. Spiritual strength
However, some might also argue that the opposite of temptation is:
1. Freedom
2. Liberation
3. Empowerment
4. Enlightenment
5. Wisdom
These words represent the ability to resist or overcome temptation, as well as the state of being free from the influence of tempting forces.
