Hard Questions

1 Kings 10:1 KJV

And when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions.

As Solomon's wisdom spread throughout the world people began to come see for themselves. The Queen apparently was only one of a number who came to see if what they had heard was true and to test him with "hard questions."

Even so the believer may expect that the more wide spread his faith becomes the more he will have to meet with the "hard questions" of those who approach him. Challenging questions are part and parcel with ministry and the larger the circle of the ministry

• The more challenging questions will be asked and
• The more challenging those questions will become

The sign of grace in our lives is not merely that we have wisdom but that we have the spiritual wherewithal to handle the pressure of those "hard questions" without bursting.
