Thematic Bible: The trying of your faith
Thematic Bible
Faith/faithfulness » The trying of your faith
My brothers and sisters, consider it nothing but joy when you fall into all sorts of trials, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
This brings you great joy, although you may have to suffer for a short time in various trials. Such trials show the proven character of your faith, which is much more valuable than gold -- gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away -- and will bring praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. You have not seen him, but you love him. You do not see him now but you believe in him, and so you rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy, read more.
because you are attaining the goal of your faith -- the salvation of your souls.
because you are attaining the goal of your faith -- the salvation of your souls.
