James 1:12-18 | Undivided: Grace for Change from the Book of James | Trent Hunter

Each of us has a love/hate relationship with temptation. On the one hand, we have been down this road before, reaping the consequences of the sins we willingly commit. On the other hand, we are going down this road again because somehow we actually believe the promise of sin over the reality of sin's consequences. This is no way to stability, to completeness, to wholeness. Sin is inherently destabilizing and disintegrating. Where do we begin in our fight against temptation? We begin with God. Not because he is the tempter, but because temptation gets its power by lying to us about him in order that we might believe lies about everything else. Are you a sinner? You need this sermon.
