Does the Bible say God tests believers the way Jesus was tested?

[jennifer_bloom]

These are 3 ways the devil tempts you:

1 - He tempts you with luxury to make you forget your God-given duty and your God-given sacred joys.

2 - He tempts you with injustice to make you angry at God in the hopes you will abandon your loyalty to God.

3 - He tempts you with shame to make you worship money and status instead of God and His love.

Yes, I believe the Bible shows that believers can be tested and tempted in ways that are similar to what Jesus experienced. Jesus was tempted by the devil in the wilderness, but He remained faithful to God. The Bible also makes it clear that God does not tempt us to sin. Instead, God can allow our faith to be tested, while the devil seeks to lead us away from God.

The three examples you mentioned can be connected to Jesus’ temptations: comfort and pleasure can distract us from our God-given responsibilities, suffering or injustice can cause us to doubt God, and wealth, power and status can tempt us to value worldly things above God. Jesus shows us that we can remain faithful to God even when we face these kinds of temptations.
