For our sakes silly.. So that "WE" would know who and what we are made of.. Not intellectually but practically and spiritually.. So we would know what we are, and what we ain't.. Eternity is a long time and much to be gained or lost..
Thank you so much for sharing your insights, dear brother in Christ!

Exactly so. Any testing is for us, not for God. He already knows all.
I am glad that you are not of the Reformed persuasion where you do not need Scripture, you have no need of testing, you have no need of repentence; you only have need of the indwelling moral compass that doesn’t allow one to commit evil (well, maybe you can, but since you have the indwelling HS, it doesn’t matter - you’re going to Heaven anyway no matter what you do).
