Do Not Be Deceived | James 1:12-18

We’re all tempted to sin, but when we give in we’ve only got ourselves to blame. Only good comes from God! Those who demonstrate that they genuinely love God by enduring through the various trials of life will be rewarded with eternal life. During trials, some will want to accuse God of tempting them to sin. Not the case, says James. Rather, there’s only one person to blame when we are tempted to sin: ourselves. Only good comes from God. The greatest evidence of His goodness is our very salvation. Salvation is a good and perfect gift given to us wholly by God’s own will. What we could never achieve ourselves due to our sin nature has been achieved for us through the word of truth.
