Why does God test people? In this video we trace the repeated theme of testing in the Bible and see how God determines the loyalty and trust of his covenant partners. Though these tests are rarely easy, they offer God’s people important opportunities for growth and transformation.

  4. I had to look up the etymology of test before fully watching it.

    The connecting notion is "ascertaining the quality of a metal by melting it in a pot."

    Meaning the connotation is a metal Smith heating an iron ore to remove impurities from it. (Or any metal)
    In Japan for instance, the Iron quality was so impure they had to put it in a huge earthen furnace to get comparatively small amounts of pure good raw steel, before then combining the best steels, both soft and hard, folding it about 10 times to get the carbon steel to where a katana wouldn't easily break. Uts still not as pure as modern steels, but from a molecular perspective, a good blade from an expert Smith is near perfect for seemingly primitive technology.
    The only steel I'm aware of that's more pure is Crucible Steel, and it's made from a similar process, though the iron quality is usually better already.

    To make pure great steel requires great heat and pressure at just the right amounts, and a quick oil quench. Holy crap… you're literally baptizing a blade in oil to properly temper it…

  8. If you regret your obedience to God, if you regret answering His call like I did – ask Him to change your mind/heart about the situation. In much time or little, you will see that The Lord's call for your obedience was and is for your benefit. Also that the work is already done and God's decision produces the absolute best results. You are not losing when you obey The Lord, you are winning! You work/press toward the win because you work/press for God.

  15. I think it has what to do with DNA, this is a creation on variations, billions of people have been borned everyone is different and a drop of them have fully understood God's message and had a will to follow Jesus's message. To born, to die, a neccesary step to real second death in the lost of soul so in hell or second life with God presence forever so second life, the true one?

  18. What I recognized from the illustrations here is that God's way always looks scarier. It's full of flames and stuff, and the other gate just looks calm and easy. I think to recognize God's gate, and to pass his tests is to always choose the way that needs courage. So what we really need is courage. Not to not be afraid, but to face things even if afraid.

  21. 🤔 .. no no no.. I kind of disagree. God is not a psicho that puts danger in front of people to "test" them to see if they will trust in Him or not.. TOTAL FAIL ON THIS THEOLOGY..NOPE. YOUR ARE DEFORMING THE CHARACTER OF GOD

  26. So this has recently been so profound for me. Temptation has strings attached. It’s not arbitrary.

    Does anyone know what James meant though when he says God can’t be tempted by evil and he himself tempts no one (James 1:13)? This seems contrary to “Jesus, being full of the holy spirt, returned from the Jordan river and was led by the spirit into the wilderness where he was tempted…(Luke 4:1)

    I really need help with this. Thanks!

    Edit: … “into the wilderness where he was tempted *by the devil*”

  27. Good video! The only thing is the whistle sound effect feels so out of place. The whistle sound adds a layer of cheap spaghetti western feel and is quite opposite of the thought provoking and insightful message. No disrespect to the sound design team besides that awesome video keep up the good work!
