'Putting' in the Bible

But it is from Him that you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God [revealing His plan of salvation], and righteousness [making us acceptable to God], and sanctification [making us holy and setting us apart for God], and redemption [providing our ransom from the penalty for sin],

And when I came to you, my brothers, I did not come with wise words of knowledge, putting before you the secret of God.

Not as putting you to shame do I write these things, but as my beloved children I do admonish,

Let's stop putting the Lord to the test, as some of them were doing, and were destroyed by snakes.

What? have you not houses to take your meals in? or have you no respect for the church of God, putting the poor to shame? What am I to say to you? am I to give you praise? certainly not.
