If you have more questions about God and suffering or just want to learn more, we'd like to recommend a few resources: David's book, "When God Isn't There" focuses on those who feel far from God or feel like he is absent. This book talks about how God's absence and God's sovereignty over suffering are both for our good: amzn.to/32P7xI1 D.A. Carson's "How. Long O Lord?" is one of the best reflections of how to understand suffering and evil in the world. It not only offers a brilliant treatment of Job, but also addresses other difficult Biblical texts that deal with suffering: amzn.to/2vGchn3 For a powerful and relatable treatment of how to understand and walk through the relationship between God and suffering, we'd suggest Timothy Keller's, "Walking with God through Pain and Suffering": amzn.to/2TnJ1us Finally, for a very technical treatment of Job as a literary work, that also helps provide answers to the book's overall theology and contribution to questions about suffering, we suggest Robert. Fyall's, "Now My Eyes Have Seen You": amzn.to/2uTqCMJ

The thief comes to steal kill and destroy, I have come to give life and give it more abundantly John 10:10 God does not take anything he should never be likened to a thief. Job said this because he did not understand that Satan existed in the first place and gave him a foothold by sacrificing offerings on behalf of his family out of fear. GOD DOES NOT TAKE ANYTHING, HE ONLY GIVES! If God says He formed your child in your womb why would he take (kill) it away. What kind of schizophrenic god do yall serve? The devil STEALS KILLS AND DESTROYS. God give LIFE ABUNDANTLY.

@@IloveF-CXandF-CFalconViper God didn't take it the devil did. It was Jobs fault. Not God. John 10:10 the thief only comes to steal kill and destroy, I have come so you would have life and more abundantly. The devil went to God and asked for Job, Job had an open door to the enemy of fear. He was making sacrifices for his family out of fear they had sinned. If Job had only made his one offering instead of all the extras the enemy could not have stolen his family. Job blamed it on God because he was not aware of the devils existence, and back then they believed that God was in control of everything (same as now) when the devil is called the god of this world. 2 Corinthians 4:4. He had dominion here until Jesus took back the keys of death hell and the grave. The devil is an a-hole not God. He loves us so much that He sent his one and only son to die for us. He lived a perfect sinless life and was tortured on the cross so He could save the very people who put Him on it. I hope one day you can see God for who He really is. I'm sorry for any hurt you've experienced from Christianity. Some people are not the best representatives for Jesus, and I can definitely be one of them. We aren't perfect but we should strive to look and love like the Father.

My parents divorced. It ruined the family. We lost our house. I went off to college and then my dad's place burns down and because of bills from the forclosed house he couldn't pay the insurance bill so I dropped out even after working hard to be a deans list student and go back and help my Dad. Not long after his mother died and then his father. My high school best friend killed himself and two months and a day later my college best friend killed himself. I was homeless. Sleeping in a slide and some of my "friends" had made a mocking and cruel comment on twitter while I'm laying there crying and they are warm in bed with all their earthly needs met...my stomach hurts. When things start looking up I find out my "business partner " had been lying and manipulating me. I left with nothing after years of hard work. I've wanted to die so much. God take me... But I didn't. I had seen what happens when someone takes their own life to the few that loved them. So I fought everyday. It was hard. REALLY HARD...it was lonely. It was humiliating... And then I met Mr. Hagen. And he brought me back to God. And it was nice. And one day I decided to flip open the bible to a random page and start reading... The book of Job And I cried tears about my life for the first time WITH TEARS OF JOY GOD IS GOOD. I'm 26. My place is paid in full. My car is paid. My bills are minimal due to house hacking. I bought my Dad a Rolex and myself one. I've helped friends buy a used car. I have a great best friend. Money comes easy to me more than I ever thought possible. It's so funny to me because reading Job 😂 God thank you for giving and taking. You are KING always and forever in my ❤️ Be good and love the Lord. -Mardu (past pastor) 💜💜💜

All I did was.....Around the time when he died, I told my wife the story of Job....She still has a hard time with his loss, but doesn't blame herself or the Lord like she started to do! So it did my heart good to hear that something I learned as a child in church...CHANGED her negative way of thinking and helped her keep her faith. I hope my story helps someone else out there!!!!

Our family suffered a major loss when our youngest boy, just 10 years old, died in a freak accident three years ago. The book of Job had been something the Lord has brought me back to again and again as I have personally sought to grow in my faith in spite of the intense grief of losing my little boy. Fast forward to today.... We are a homeschool family and Job is what we are currently working through in our Bible study work. THANK YOU for this encouragement this morning. I found your video "by accident" and was not prepared for the balm it would be for our still-hurting hearts. May God bless this ministry richly.

@SpokenGospel4 жыл бұрын
Thank you so much! So happy that you’re loving the videos! As for Job 3:25, Job is lamenting over everything he has lost. When he says, “What I feared has come upon me,” his greatest fears have come true. We don’t need to read into this and think Job was walking around every day fearful that something bad was going to happen to his family, property, and health. Rather, these are things that anyone would dread happening to themselves. Job is basically saying, the worst fears that beset the world have fallen upon me. It is powerful lament language. Hope that helps!

The problem is that Job was never brought up to speed about this “wager” between the Satan and God, so he really couldn’t give a complete testimony. When Job asked God why, God refuses to answer his HONEST question and tries putting him in his place. To me I have hard time with this book, jealous love is not true love. If God is like a Father to us, we would never put our kids in these cruel conditions to test their faith/“love” in this manner. It’s like when you get married and you’ve taken your vows, you trust and love your spouse unconditionally. Why would I then start testing their “faith” or love if they’ve done nothing but keep to the vows. That would be jealousy, and true love is not jealous.

Neverthemore and nevertheless, it seems clear that the presence of life seems to be not only the all in all but life in all And if God is life, and there is death in life, then there is life in death.
