Difficulties Reveal Hardy Holiness
Matthew 4:1–11; 1 Corinthians 10:12–13; Hebrews 12:11
True holiness does not make a Christian evade difficulties, but face and overcome them. Christ would have His people show that His grace is not a mere hothouse plant, which can only thrive under shelter, but a strong hardy thing which can flourish in every relation of life.
