How does God test our faith and what is the purpose behind these tests?
God tests our faith by putting us in challenging situations or allowing difficult circumstances to occur in our lives. The purpose behind these tests is to strengthen our faith, deepen our trust in God, and help us grow spiritually. Through these tests, we have the opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to God and develop a stronger relationship with Him.
Why are people who do nothing are praised and those who do everything not praised?
I understand what you must be going through but maybe its a test that god puts us through or whatever religious god you have. Maybe its for us to see if we can handle it. Sometimes its also a test for us to become stronger better people. Lastly its a point for us to stand up for ourselves.
Why didn't God know how faithful Abraham was?
God is omniscient and knows all things before they even happen. However, he often puts us to the test by doing things that will give us an opportunity to prove ourselves to him by our actions. Through these actions, God can often teach us lessons and help us grow closer to him and more to his will. This was the case for Abraham, God wanted to test Abraham to see if he really and truly would make the choice to serve the will of God. While God knows what we are going to do in advance, he gives us the choice of free will to decide what we want to do for ourselves, whether we decide to make choices for him, or to go our own way apart from God.
How different does God see us than we see ourselves?
He knows our innermost thoughts and feelings, and he knows us better then we know ourselves.
Why does God want us to be dependent on Him in stead of looking after ourselves?
Because then God can show others how strong He is through us
Does the scripture mention that God does not test us?

Different faiths try to figure out what God wants, but logically, God probably wants us to be who we are, true to ourselves, and be the best person we can be.
Why does god want us to treat others better than ourselves?
He doesn't. The instruction was to love others as we love ourselves. No more and no less.
What does god say about gay preachers?
God is completely silent on the matter. However God does want us to love others as we love ourselves.
How can you remind ourselves everday that you are living for god?
You and we cannot, but Jesus can remind us when we walk with hm.
Why did God give humans free will?
Well, god didn't want us to be robots. He wanted us to be able to make decisions for ourselves, and he wanted us to choose whether we would serve him or not.
What if God was one of us?
That would be discriminatory so it is better if he continues to be all of us, then we will not be able to cause pain and suffering to others because we will be hurting God and by extension ourselves.
