To sin intentionally means to follow the evil desires of oneself, to give into the devil, to indicate the not yet softened heart of oneself, to show that one has not yet submitted to the will of God and is not worthy of salvation.

Is tempting someone a sin?

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.
