That would depend on what the temptation was for and its purpose.

For example, if the temptation were for a harmless purpose, and perhaps even

for something that would be helpful to the person, then it would not constitute a sin. For example, if a friend needed to take a remedial math class during the

summer prior to the start of the regular fall classes, then to tempt him or her to

take the class would not be a sin, but a benefit to the person.

On the other hand, if the temptation were for something that would be harmful

to the person, then it would be a sin. For example, if the person desperately

needed to lose weight, and he or she were tempted to eat a gallon of ice cream, that would be a sin.

Are temptations Venial Sins?

According to Roman Catholicism, a venial sin (meaning "forgivable" sin) is a lesser sin that does not result in a complete separation from God and eternal damnation in Hell. A venial sin involves a "partial loss of grace" from God. Then, a temptation is the act of tempting or the condition of being tempted or something tempting or enticing. It can be a venial sin if you are thinking of doing it, but if you are just being tempted and not falls to it. it is not a venial sin. Thus, it depends upon the situation. Hope this helps.
