"Temptation vs Trial"


Recently, I has mixed up the word "temptation" and "trial". Temptation means that you yourself, your evil desires tend to make you fall into sin. While trial is what God think it's good for you to make you grow but it might make you fall and lost your faith in Lord.


Just take an easy example here like maybe your friend passed the answer sheet to you during a test then you can choose either to or not to grab it. If you choose to copy the answer, that means your evil desire, the tempatation make you fall into the trap. (You may refer to the verse Jacob 1:13-15). Lord keep training you from trials so that you can have strong faith and trust in Lord.


That's the power of words and languages. It often make you clearer about a thing and even may cause you to misunderstood sometimes. That why we need to extremely be careful especially in reading God's words. It's not easy for the people who translated bible from one language to another. God got said that the people who preach need to take greater responsibilty than the people who listen to the preach.
So, we gonna be extremely careful in this ya... ^.^
