0763. THE TRIAL OF FAITH.
THE TRIAL OF FAITH.
1Pe_1:7.
1. What is to be Tried? Your faith? Some have "no faith." Some have "little faith." Some have "great faith."
2. How is Faith Tried? Our faith may be tried-
Like Job’s, by prolonged adversity.
Like Abraham’s, by a call to sacrifice.
Like Joseph’s, by a temptation to sin.
Like Daniel’s, by evil workers.
3. Why is Faith Tried? Because, like silver and gold, it becomes more precious (2Pe_1:1). Because it makes it more fruitful. "Praise and honour and glory."
