Most temptations are self-serving. The only effective way to combat it is to forget the self and focus on God and on following His will.
Most people believe that once people gain their freedom from oppressors, they became free. History shows that's not necessarily true. Our oppressors are not outside us but within us--pride, fear, covetousness... These sinful vices keep people in bondage using chains that no amount of uprising can break.
