/12 //Blessed is anyone who *endures temptation*.

Such a one has stood the test and will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.

13 No one, when tempted, should say, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one.

14 But one is tempted *by one’s own desire*, being lured and enticed by it; 15 then, when that desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and that sin, when it is fully grown, gives birth to death.

/*James** 1:12-15*

/10 //Jesus// straightened up and said to her, “Woman, where are they?

Has no one condemned you?” 11 She said, “No one, sir.”

/9//Do you not know that wrongdoers will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived!

Fornicators, idolaters, *adulterers*, male prostitutes, sodomites, thieves, the greedy, drunkards, revilers, robbers—none of these will inherit the kingdom of God.

And this is what some of you *used to be*.

But you were *washed*, you were *sanctified*, you were *justified* in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God/.

*1 Corinthians 6:9-11*
