James 1:15
“Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.”
Verse in context — James 1
13
Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
14
But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.
15
Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.
16
Don't be deceived, my beloved brothers.
17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom can be no variation, nor turning shadow.
