The greater God’s refinement, the more people’s hearts love God.

It benefits them in life to have torment in their hearts.

They’ll be at peace before God and become closer with Him.

They can see God’s supreme love and His supreme salvation.

Refinement is the best means for man to be perfected.

Only trials and refinement make people truly love God.

Peter went through refinement; it happened hundreds of times.

Job went through several trials. And you too should be refined.

You must go through hundreds of trials, must rely on this step,

so you can satisfy God, and God will make you perfect.

Refinement is the best means for man to be perfected.

Only trials and refinement make people truly love God,

yes, truly love God.

When refined to a certain point,

you’ll see your weakness and troubles.

You’ll see how much you’re lacking,

that your problems you can’t beat.

You’ll see your own defiance.

Trials will show you your true state.

Trials will make you better able to be perfected.

Refinement is the best means for man to be perfected.

Only trials and refinement make people truly love God.

If people go without hardship, they will lack true love for God.

If they are not tested within, not subject to refinement,

then their hearts will always float away in the outside world.

Refinement is the best means for man to be perfected.

Only trials and refinement make people truly love God,

yes, truly love God, truly love God.
