Testing And Tempting

13 Let no man say when he is tempted: God tempts me. God cannot be tempted with evil, and he tempts (entices) (tests) (trys) no one. 14 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then evil desires, when conceived, give birth to sin: and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.
