Quiz result:

Self-Indulgence

According to your answers, common vices that may cause you to stumble might be related to self-indulgence. If the enemy is going to take you out, he is going to draw you toward behaviors with short-term gratification but long-term damages. The enemy’s choice weapon in this case is guilt that draws you away from God. I want you to look at this quiz result without attributing any guilt to yourself. Maybe you struggle with greed, lustful appetites, or entitlement – God still loves you. Instead of surrendering to these vices, I hope you will allow the Holy Spirit to grow virtues in you. I wrote Why Do I Do What I don’t Want to Do to be a tool to help you in that process. For example, Chapter 3 of the book talks about what it means to replace greed with generosity. Chapter 5 looks at replacing lust with self-control, and Chapter 7 replacing entitlement with gratitude. I truly believe that you can build positive habits by focusing on godly virtues in place of dangerous vices. You can order Why Do I Do What I don’t Want to Do below to read these chapters more in-depth.
