James 1:12-18 - Testing And Tempting

12 Happy is the man that endureth temptation: for when he hath been proved, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.

13 Let no man when he is tempted say, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man. 14 But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own desire and inticed. 15 Then desire having conceived, bringeth forth sin; and sin being perfected, bringeth forth death.

16 Do not err, my beloved brethren. Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, 17 descending from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning. 18 Of his own will begat he us by the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.
