James 1:14

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

FROM whence come wars and conflicts among you? spring they not from hence, even from your passions, which war in your members?

but I say unto you, That every one who looketh upon a woman to lust after her, hath already committed adultery with her in his heart.

But the things which go forth out of the mouth, come out of the heart, and they are the things which defile a man:

For from within out of the heart of men proceed wicked reasonings, adulteries, whoredoms, murders,

For sin, seizing the occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and thereby slew me.

that ye put off respecting your former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful passions;

but exhort one another daily, whilst to-day remains, that no one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.

But, said he, what cometh out of a man, that makes a man unclean.
