THERE WILL BE A TEST
God has said very clearly that he tests the hearts and minds of people to prove if they love him or not. It is a two part test. The first part is to assemble the puzzle. The second part is to apply what you have learned. If you don’t assemble the puzzle, you fail the test. If you don’t apply what you have learned, you fail the test. It may sound harsh, but God has laid out this life or death proposition. If you understand that and take it to heart, you have assembled an important piece of the picture of God.
