Sinful TemptationJames 1:13-17 Let no man say when he is enticed, That they are being tempted by God; As it is not possible for God or Christ, For they are neither weak nor flawed. Since God can not be tested by evil, And never puts any man to the test; But evil is only the work of the devil, Who thoroughly enjoys such a quest. Everyone is tested when they detour, From some attraction of their desire; Then as the time comes for the lure, The birth of a sin will light its fire. When the sin becomes fully grown, It shall also give birth to your death; Since God will be leaving you alone, At the time of your last dying breath. Do not be down hearted or dismay, For unto you an opportunity is given; When you confess your sins this day, God will give you a ticket to Heaven.
