Temptation And A Conclusion

Let us must today from James 1:15 and a proper Encounter With Temptation on the road to God’s Blessings. This is our last thought on temptation before we move on in James. Let us look today at Temptation’s Conclusion. The word ‘finished‘ in verse 15 means to cease from being pregnant. Remember from yesterday there was a conception between our lustful thought and the devil’s stimulation. We were told to call the baby’s name ‘sin’. Now that we are finished with the pregnancy our baby whose name is sin is bringing forth death. There is only one thing that sin will produce. It may be a little sin, big sin, grey sin, or black sin but it can only bring forth death. The Bible says ‘For the wages of sin is death.’ I am so glad for the child of God that He has thrown my sin as far as the east is from the west. There are no poles for east and west to meet and neither will my sin meet with me again. He has suffered the condemnation of my sin when He died on the cross.
