Proving Your Faith
Proving Your Faith
John MacArthur: This is John MacArthur inviting you to join me for Portraits of Grace.
Many Christians fear trials and persecution, believing that those things can rob them of their joy. But scripture teaches us that joy is actually the result of trouble.
Every trial you face is designed to test and perfect your faith, and God carefully controls their parameters to accomplish that purpose.
Peter likened our trials to the refining process of gold. Just as the refiner's fire burns away the dross and leaves only the pure gold, so God purges you through trials to reveal the purity of your faith.
Once your faith has been proven to be genuine, joy and assurance will replace any doubts about your salvation.
Don't fear trials, embrace them, they lead to joy. This is John MacArthur, trusting your lives are portraits of grace.
