God Finally Speaks About Suffering
Manage episode 447265495 series 3594462
Ponder with me about the end of Job! The longest continuous speech in Job is by a mysterious character named Elihu. He pops up at the end of Job, although he makes it clear he's been listening to Job and his friends while they were arguing the whole time. His theme is simple - regardless of the suffering we experience, God is good through it all! He is the right and just through it all. Then, God comes into the picture and peppers Job with dozens and dozens of questions...but what's weird is that none of the questions have anything to do with suffering. All the questions are about the created world. Let's think about why that is, and what point God is so powerfully making. To God be the glory!
