Speaking the truth in love Eph. And for good reason.
Trials are a divine tool.
And when held in the hand of the Supreme Surgeon, they are used with perfect precision to cut away all that would hinder our relationship with God and stunt our growth in the education of glory. Now in the Hebrew language, to tempt, to try, or to prove, are all expressed by the same word. And every trial is indeed a temptation, which is, among other things, designed to show the dispositions of the heart, whether holy or unholy. But in this particular case as God proved Abraham, it was not to draw him into sin, as Satan tempts man, but to make him see the reality of his own faith. Strong faith remember is often exercised with strong trials, and put upon proving itself with hard services.
