'Trial' in the Bible

How that in a great trial of affliction the abundance of their joy and their deep poverty abounded unto the riches of their liberality.

Test and evaluate yourselves to see whether you are in the faith and living your lives as [committed] believers. Examine yourselves [not me]! Or do you not recognize this about yourselves [by an ongoing experience] that Jesus Christ is in you—unless indeed you fail the test and are rejected as counterfeit?

But I hope you will acknowledge that we do not fail the test nor are we to be rejected.
