James 1:15-17

15 Then the desire, having conceived, gives-birth to sin. And the sin, having been fully-formed[a], brings-forth death. 16 Do not be deceived!
Receive God’s Lifegiving Gift of The Implanted Word With Gentleness Toward Others, Not Anger
My[b] beloved brothers, 17 every good gift-giving[c] and every perfect gift-given is from-above, coming down from the Father of lights[d], with Whom there is no variation[e] or shadow[f] of turning.
