What do you think of my friend saying bad people are put here to test us?

A friend from my university told me that God uses annoying people to test you and reward you for how you respond to them.

I think this is true cause almost every morning at around 10 I find some reason to get angry or somebody provokes me into a fight. My parents are constantly provoking me with their bad attitude and their close minded and rude remarks. If they are a test from God, I can’t even imagine how big my reward will be.

That is an interesting outlook. If it's a test, I have a question for your friend. If bad people are a test, why not good people as well? Good people that appear bad at first glance. And for bad people, how does your friend think God wants the bad people to be treated to pass the test?

Thanks for the most helpful opinion, but I really would like to know. What's your friend's answer? :)

This is somebody I knew in my university days and those days are long gone.

I assume that most people are busy with their lives so I don't disrupt them to ask questions unless it is very important and something I can't figure out on my own

Yes, I believe God tests us with sending bad people our way and if we fall for it than we must pay the consequences what we need to do is walk away from the haters, bad people and turn a deaf ear to them and not take their bull.

I was once told that good people are put here to annoy the bad people to become good people.

Who put them here?
