A lot of us are like that. We give excuses, instead of owning up to the fact that we have made a choice to sin. Sin is not just an event, it is a process. Sin doesn t just happen. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
Sin begins with our own desires.
All desires are not necessarily bad. We can have a desire to do great things for God. That s a good desire. But verse 14 specifically speaks of evil desires. When an evil desire is conceived, it gives birth to sin.
