If you think I am here for you to mock God and His Word and that I somehow am obligated to answer a scorner you a seriously wrong... As far as being unworthy .. it would be your actions that Judge you not my opinion. I am free in Christ to judge both your questions and the manner in which they are placed. I have a wife and seven children Just 3 short of Job :-} I have a life and friends. I am trying to preach the truth to those whom God has chosen to hear it... that may or may not be you. RE>>-he he he the fun begins...<< Is this the kind of intent that would cause me to spend a lot of time responding to you ? It is God's longsuffering that I answer you at all. You have chosen the oldest book in the Bible. Do you know why the Bible was given? 2 Tim 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 17 That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works. The bible is not written to the wicked or the scoffer indeed it is written in such a way as that those whom God is passing over cannot understand it! Even when I plainly expose what God has said and taught yet most will not understand.. Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Romans 11:10 Let their eyes be darkened, that they may not see, and bow down their back alway. =========== AS TO JOB : =========== Job 1:1 There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil. Eschewed: 1) to turn aside, turn in unto 2) to depart, depart from way, avoid 3) to be removed 4) to come to an end Job was granted Repentance ( to turn away from sin and evil ) Job was highly Blessed of God both spiritually and financially ! Job did not party and then repent... the scriptures teach that Job acted as an intercessor for His children and offered prayer and sacrifice 'Just in case " one of his children may have sinned. Job stood in the gap as a type of Christ ! Job was righteous because of the approbation by faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the Cross. Job was redeemed from sin. RE>>can satan come and go to god as he pleases?<< satan can only do what God allows ..God turns satan loose to both sift the saints and to punish the wicked but satan is not free to do as he pleases as you can see from the book of Job he needed God's permission to tempt Job. It was God who pointed Job out to the devil. The devil did what he always does... accuse Job of serving God to serve himself ! Job 1:9 Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? satan must do this .. it is his evil nature to accuse Job of serving and loving Mammon more than God! RE>>here's that tricky satan guy setting Job up...<< Tricky or very boring ? RE>>Hey BV; what did Job chose to do when tortured? please don't tell me he had a choice to serve God and rebuke satan... satan was trying to make it easy for him even...<< I do not understand your question could you restate in in different words. The book of Job clearly states all of what Job did under satan's spoilings. Your question about choice to me is vague. satan was trying to cause Job to join him in his sin and eternal place of torment. Other than that I do not see what you are asking unless your trying to be as tricky as he ? he he he the fun begins...... OH REALLY ? :-} It's all fun and games until someone goes to hell.
