James 1:12-18 - Testing And Tempting
12 Happy the man who endures temptation: for being tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to them loving him.
13 Let none say being tempted, that I am tempted of God: for God is not tempted of evils, and he tempts none: 14 And each is tempted from his own lust, being drawn out, and decoyed. 15 So then lust conceiving, brings forth sin: and sin performed, produces death.
16 Be not led astray, my dearly beloved brethren. 17 Every good donation and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom not one change, or shadow of turning. 18 Having willed he brought forth by the word of truth, for us to be some first fruit of his creatures.
