2 Elements to Temptation

“There are two elements to temptation—
*the lust that is common within our own nature
*and the enticement we experience from an outside source.

Each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires
[lusts] and enticed.
James 1:14.
The New Testament typically uses the word lust to describe a very strong, forbidden and unlawful desire."
StepsToLife

Temptations from without find an answering chord within the heart, and the feet slide imperceptibly into sin.” 
E.G.W.
