5 degrees of temptation Five degrees of temptation(James 1:14-15): 1. Dragging away (the mind) 2. Enticing (the affections) 3. Conceiving sin (in the will) 4. The birth of sin (in action, words, thoughts, and so on) 5. Death by sin (Enslavement to sin is spiritual death) (But this is never reached in true believers). (Kris Lundgaard, "the enemy within")
