is every test from God a temptation from the devil? I think so. Once we resist the temptation we pass the test...and become One with God..for that is the aim ..to become One..
There are 2 words for the word test in the greek, Peirazo means tested by satan. the pressure test. and the other word for test is Dokomazo and this test means approved by God. get yourself a strongs concordance. Matthew 26:41 Peirazo 1 Peter 1:7 Dokomazo read your word please.
I have been tempted and failed, one night things were so dark and horrible that I screamed at God and defied him, and I regret it, I know that I can only blame myself and I asked for forgivness but I still feel the shame.
This is much better than the anti America, hate White people rants of Barack Obama's Rev. Jeremiah Wright - what a wicked, vile unChristian man he is! Shame on those who use the Church to promote hate.
No God does not tempt us (entice us to do evil)James 1:13.Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man:
But he does examine or test(proves) us
Psalm 11:4.The LORD is in his holy temple; the LORD is on his heavenly throne. He observes the sons of men; his eyes examine them.
The testing is like a refiner and it is not for his knowledge but for ours. When we think we are a place that we really are not
God don't test us because he already know the answer for everything. Nor is God putting people in compromising circumstances. People make their own choices which cause good or evil.
If God has to test a man, then He's not ALL KNOWING.
The devil is the tester and tempter because he don't know if people will sin or obey God.
Actually the test is a 2 way test. Of coarse God is foreknowing and all knowing..however it is like a basketball team. If a team never gets tested even if they are great as people know they are...they themselves will suffer because they lack experience needed to survive the adversity they will face. Tests are really Gods way of Giving us experience to deal with the troubles of a fallen world; equipping us...the devil is not that nice. satan speaks to you during the test in order to discourage
@RINGO4LIFE kind agree from point of the devil was aloud to test Job, but I have tested my children knowing they would fall and get up and do better conclusion you and the rev. have a point of one side of the story
Yes God does test us, not with sin but he'll allow Trial and Tribulations to occur to see if you'll keep the faith. Rev. Clay Evans does a good job explaining this in this sermon. The devil tempts you with sin but God tests you with trials.

The bible says: Psalms 34:19 Many [are] the afflictions of the righteous: but the LORD delivereth him out of them all.
Question?
Why would the Lord be delivering you out of afflictions and trouble according to the scripture above if He's the one putting you in trouble? LOL
Please understand your bibles and don't allow decieved ministers to misguide you.
Lets face it, if you're going through trouble or test it's because of your actions according to (Galatians 6:7).

Does God really test us?
Why would God use test(sin) to test us, when he said in his word"Yield not to temptation because yielding is sin?
