Complacency Breeds Sin, Rebellion, Disobedience
INWARDLY• The sequence of sin – James 1:13-16• Temptation = carried away, enticed
by his own lust• Lust conceives, gives birth to sin• Sin brings forth death • For the believer, we breach sweet
fellowship with the Lord• For the unbeliever, eternity in hell
