• James 1:13-15
  Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
   
• Matthew 5:27-29
  "You have heard that it was said to those of old, 'You shall not commit adultery.' But I say to you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast it from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.
   
• 1 John 2:16-17
  For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not of the Father but is of the world. And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.
   
• Mark 7:20-22
  And He said, "What comes out of a man, that defiles a man. For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adulteries, fornications, murders, thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lewdness, an evil eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness.
   
• 1 Timothy 6:9-10
  But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and perdition. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed from the faith in their greediness, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
   
• James 4:1-4
  Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures. Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.
   
• Isaiah 56:10-12
  His watchmen are blind,
  They are all ignorant;
  They are all dumb dogs,
  They cannot bark;
  Sleeping, lying down, loving to slumber.
  Yes, they are greedy dogs
  Which never have enough.
  And they are shepherds
  Who cannot understand;
  They all look to their own way,
  Every one for his own gain,
  From his own territory.
  " Come," one says, "I will bring wine,
  And we will fill ourselves with intoxicating drink;
  Tomorrow will be as today,
  And much more abundant."
   
• Joshua 7:20-21
  And Achan answered Joshua and said, “Indeed I have sinned against the LORD God of Israel, and this is what I have done: When I saw among the spoils a beautiful Babylonian garment, two hundred shekels of silver, and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. And there they are, hidden in the earth in the midst of my tent, with the silver under it.”
   
• 2 Samuel 13:1-2
  After this Absalom the son of David had a lovely sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her. Amnon was so distressed over his sister Tamar that he became sick; for she was a virgin. And it was improper for Amnon to do anything to her.
   
• Isaiah 2:6-8
  For You have forsaken Your people, the house of Jacob,
  Because they are filled with eastern ways;
  They are soothsayers like the Philistines,
  And they are pleased with the children of foreigners.
  Their land is also full of silver and gold,
  And there is no end to their treasures;
  Their land is also full of horses,
  And there is no end to their chariots.
  Their land is also full of idols;
  They worship the work of their own hands,
  That which their own fingers have made.
  
   
• 1 Corinthians 6:9-10
  Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God.
   
• Titus 2:11-14

• 2 Samuel 11:2-4
  Then it happened one evening that David arose from his bed and walked on the roof of the king’s house. And from the roof he saw a woman bathing, and the woman was very beautiful to behold. So David sent and inquired about the woman. And someone said, “Is this not Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite?” Then David sent messengers, and took her; and she came to him, and he lay with her, for she was cleansed from her impurity; and she returned to her house.
