That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ.(1Pet.1:7)
Job was Surely Tried through his Awful Trials, with the result that Satan was made to Learn that our Lord's Salvation, when Given to a man, is Secure, and cannot be Shaken. And Job was also Made Stronger Spiritually by his Tribulations, as he 'Repented in Dust and Ashes' before our Lord and King. (Job42:6) I don't believe Trials come to us to show our Lord if our Faith is Sound or not, because He Knows All Things already, but to show us, so we will be Strengthened in our Continuing Endurance through Grace, and Know we are Truly Predestined to Life.
Thank you. It's nice that some people don't think of God as someone who would tempt us. I know that in my heart, but that's not what the Bible says.
The Lord's Prayer, of all things, says "And do not lead us into temptation..."
1 Pet 1:&
The Apostle here is talking about suffering, not temptation. The early Christians believed that unless they suffered and died (as the Lord did), unless they were martyred, they did not go to heaven. I think we have evolved somewhat since then.
