Thematic Bible: The trying of your faith
Thematic Bible
Faith/faithfulness » The trying of your faith
Let it be all joy to you, my brothers, when you undergo tests of every sort; Because you have the knowledge that the testing of your faith gives you the power of going on in hope;
You have cause for great joy in this, though it may have been necessary for you to be troubled for a little time, being tested in all sorts of ways, So that the true metal of your faith, being of much greater value than gold (which, though it comes to an end, is tested by fire), may come to light in praise and glory and honour, at the revelation of Jesus Christ: To whom your love is given, though you have not seen him; and the faith which you have in him, though you do not see him now, gives you joy greater than words and full of glory: read more.
For so you have the true end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
For so you have the true end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.
