I. God is not the Problem James 1:13 &16

A. False view of God. (verse 13)

Who are the ones who have these encorrect or false view of God? (Verse 16)
It is Christians-
When we are in a stage in a immaturity.

It is very important for us Christian to be mature so that we will have the right view of God..

Look at closely verse 13
Notice the Word "when"
It means certainty. Or it is going to happen.

You may hide yourself in the desert or in the highest mountains, but you will still be tempted..

Main point of the passage " do not say, " I am being tempted by God, to say so is to say that God is mo different from satan who is opitome in evil.
It is wrong!

Because God cannot be tempted by evil.

Question if God is holy , would he tempt anyone to evil?

Answer is of course not! It would be possible because it is explained in verse 13.. "God cannot be tempted"

*God allows us to be tempted by the devil but it doesnt mean God is the one who temp us.
God permit the devil to temp anyone.
Luke 22:31-32

When God permit the devil and allow temptation in our lives do not mis understood but realize this God is going to show His power to help you overcome as your trust Him.

He will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we cant bare.

*when you and i are tempted remember Christ pray for us.
Verse 32 and hebrews He keep intercession for us.

One of the reason why Jesus prays for us is to restore us and grant us His power..
2cor 12:7-10
