What causes us to be tempted? Where do we get our desire to do that which the Lord has commanded us not to do? James explains the way we are tempted, where our temptation comes from, and where our temptation leads us.

Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings ...read more

Christmas Eve -The Power Of Belief
