Testing And Tempting

13 No one should think when he is tempted that his temptation comes from God, for God is incapable of being tempted by what is evil, and he does not tempt anyone. 14 When anyone is tempted, it is by his own desire that he is enticed and allured. 15 Then desire conceives and gives birth to sin, and when sin is mature, it brings forth death.
