Thematic Bible: The trying of your faith


Thematic Bible



Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you are involved in various trials, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.

You greatly rejoice in this, even though you have to suffer various kinds of trials for a little while, so that your genuine faith, which is more valuable than gold that perishes when tested by fire, may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus, the Messiah, is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him. And even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, read more.
because you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
