I would say that Jesus and James were talking about two different things. In my opinion, trials are not the same as temptations. Trials are external...
Jesus taught his disciples to pray, “do not lead us into temptation” (Matt. 6:13). But James says here, “count it all joy when you fall into various trials.”
