James continues to urge believers to live mature Christian lives, this time focusing on withstanding temptation. Temptation is not a sin, but left unchecked it can lead to desire, then lust, and finally sinful actions. Christians must remember that God never tempts us and will help us withstand temptation, but the battle is won or lost at the start, before it becomes lust.
