Temptation itself isn’t a consequence of original sin. Otherwise Adam and Eve wouldn’t have been tempted by the serpent, since they were created without original sin.

Alright...I'll rephrase that...Temptation is a consequence of a sinful nature...

Although people tried to tempt God, God could not be tempted...Jesus on the other hand could be tempted but he did not succumb to sin...
