Was Jesus Tempted by Evil Desires?

Summary

The sermon addresses the apparent contradiction between Jesus being tempted in every way and James 1:14's definition of temptation stemming from one's own desires. It clarifies that while God tests and Jesus was tested and could sympathize with our weaknesses, Jesus did not possess sinful desires to be lured into sin. The practical takeaway is that temptation, as defined by James, arises when legitimate desires become a controlling lure leading to active sin.
