John MacArthur? trials sermon
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
God uses trials to take our focus off of wordily things
|
||
|
|
Not bad but wordily and have not value:
|
||
|
|
- money
|
||
|
|
- jobs
|
||
|
|
- reputations
|
||
|
|
Evil things: Sin

||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The essence of a trial is: we are put in a position by God (~28:00)
