Do you actually read the entire thread before you bring out the guns?
I should have only responded to your post and then put my personal feelings after on another post so as not to make you think I was referring to you. Anyways give me proof that the previous verse is referring to married women when the verse explicitly says A woman. Let me show you where I get my proof for the following verse.

Excuse me? Now we interpret the Word of God according to modern day English? Here is the verse with the Strongs #s after each word. Following this is the Kings James Concordance with every instance of the word and its translation.

Jas 1:15 ThenG1534 when lustG1939 hath conceived,G4815 it bringeth forthG5088 sin:G266 andG1161 sin,G266 when it is finished,G658 bringeth forthG616 death.G2288


ep-ee-thoo-mee'-ah
From G1937; a longing (especially for what is forbidden): - concupiscence, desire, lust (after).
