Psalms 66:10-12

10For you, O God, have atested us;
you have tried us as silver is tried.
11You brought us into bthe net;
you laid a crushing burden on our backs;
12you let men cride over our heads;
we went through fire and through dwater;
yet you have brought us out to a place of abundance.

Isaiah 43:2

2 eWhen you pass through the waters, I will be with you;
and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you;
fwhen you walk through fire gyou shall not be burned,
and the flame shall not consume you.

1 Corinthians 3:11-13

11For no one can lay a hfoundation other ithan that which is laid, jwhich is Jesus Christ. 12Now if anyone builds on the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw 13 keach one’s work will become manifest, for the Day will disclose it, because it will be revealed lby fire, and mthe fire will test what sort of work each one has done.

1 Peter 4:12

Suffering as a Christian

12Beloved, do not be surprised at nthe fiery trial when it comes upon you to test you, as though something strange were happening to you.
