James 1:13-16

13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God “; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death. 16 Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.

 

God does not create any person to live a lifestyle or act in any way that is sinfully contrary to His Word, so don’t blame God.  Sin is a completely human choice, but God can, and will, graciously turn sinners from their sin through the power of Jesus’ death and resurrection if they will repent and trust in Him. ~ PDJ
