Answer:

According to James 1:15, sin develops from the evil desires of a person (tempted by Satan) and this desire grew into something bigger until it completely overtakes the person and kills him, 'condemned' to eternal death/ suffering without the forgiving grace of God.

Explanation:

James 1: 15 states <em>"Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death."</em>

This is a metaphor for how sin emerges in a person.

James addresses how sin came into the world and entice people to do evil in the eyes of the Lord. According to him, sin develops in a person only from Satan and not from God, <em>"For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone"(1:13)</em>. And when a person is tempted, the sin 'enters' into him, grows inside, and then just like childbirth, gives birth to another sin, or a much bigger sin. This means that sin develops and emerges bigger until it is completely removed and destroyed.

To put it simply, it's like this. A person is tempted by Satan to do sin, be it murder or anything. Then, this desire to do it will lead to an infatuation, of sorts. And once this desire is acted out, it will lead to more sins if not curbed or stopped. And as this sinful act grows, it will mature and eventually lead to the death of the person if he doesn't stop or repent.

Likewise, sin is conceived from the negative desire within a person, which then grows and if not curbed, or repented, it will only lead to the death of the person without the graceful forgiving act of God, and thus, the person becomes eternally dam ned.

hichkok12 [17]

Nicolás Machiavelli was a diplomat, civil servant, political philosopher and Italian writer, considered father of modern Political Science. He was also a relevant figure of the Italian Renaissance. His thinking translates the philosophical tradition of ancient political thought in which political practice is overshadowed by the idealization of governments and utopian cities.

Machiavelli states that the actual exercise of politics involves real situations with real men and peoples, whose behavior, decisions and actions, usually do not necessarily respond to morality but to the laws of power
