James 1:13-18

This Week Kylie, Eleanor, and Jenna will be going over James 13-18 .                                           
                                                          
13 No one undergoing a trial should say, “I am being tempted by God.” For God is not tempted by evil,[a] and He Himself doesn’t tempt anyone. 14 But each person is tempted when he is drawn away and enticed by his own evil desires. 15 Then after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and when sin is fully grown, it gives birth to death.


16 Don’t be deceived, my dearly loved brothers. 17 Every generous act and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights; with Him there is no variation or shadow cast by turning. 18 By His own choice, He gave us a new birth by the message of truth[b] so that we would be the firstfruits of His creatures.

                Here are our QUESTIONS!                 
Question 1- Why does God not tempt anyone? If God doesn't tempt anyone one who does?
                    Have you ever been tempted? Give one example.

Question 2- Why do you think "Us" or "We" are tempted in the first place?

Question 3- When the passage says "Don't be deceived". What does that mean?

Questions 4-  In verse 17 God says ,'' Every gift from above comes from heaven'' What gifts have
                     you recieved from God?
