"But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed."
Who is responsible when you are drawn away to do evil? The Devil is not responsible. You are responsible.
My friend, you could solve a great deal of your problems for which you are blaming someone else if you would say to the living Jesus Christ who is right now at God's right hand, "I'm a sinner. I'm guilty." Then He will remove your guilt complex. He is the only one that can do that.
Evil is attractive today. We are told that Moses was caught up at first in the pleasures of sin. Man can be enticed; the hook can be baited. If he yields, before long a person will become an alcoholic or a dope addict. James says that it is of your own lust that you are drawn away into sin.
What we need to do is center our thoughts and focus on the Lord Jesus Christ.
