Charles Spurgeon Commentary James 1:14

"but each man is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed." — James 1:14 (ASV)

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

This is the essence of an evil temptation, a man's own lust.

But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.

This is the wanton harlot that deceives the heart of man: his own desire grown strong and hot until it becomes lust. This draws a man away; it baits the hook, and man swallows it and is thus entrapped and enticed.
