For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; 14 but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. 15 Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.

Temptation is the desire or inclination to act against God's will. All humans experience desires contrary to God's will at some point in their lives. Feeling the desires is not in and of itself a sin. However, sin occurs when we act upon these temptations. Because temptation is part of the human experience, the Bible has much to say on this topic.
