## Definition
|

|
|
A test refers to difficult circumstances God allows in a person's life. To "put something to a test" can also be used to mean, "to challenge something or someone for proof."
|
|
|
|
* God sometimes uses tests to expose people's sin.
|
|
* God also sometimes uses tests to demonstrate that people trust him.
|
|
* God often uses Satan as the agent of testing in the Bible.
|
|
* Unlike God, Satan does not simply test people, but instead he tempts them to sin.
|
|
* People do not have the right to "put God to a test" because he is always faithful and holy.
