1 | The point of God's questions to Job? | Job | Hank | 40244 | ||
In Job 38:1 to 41:34 God asks Job a series of questions, 83 in all. What is the significant thing about these questions? How many of these questions can you answer? What point is God driving home to Job? --Hank | ||||||
2 | The point of God's questions to Job? | Job | Ray | 40257 | ||
Hi Hank, I think that it is indeed important to see that Job did not answer any of His questions. The only question that I may be close to answering is Job 38:19, "Where is the way to the dwelling of light?" It is interesting I think to note the contrast of Job 38:3 and Job 42:4. The Lord says in Job 38:3, "Now gird up your loins like a man, And I will ask you, and you instruct Me!" And Job answers in Job 42:4, "Hear now, and I will speak; I will ask Thee, and do Thou instruct me." Job is repenting of his declarations of things that he did not understand. It is good to talk to you tonight. From the heart, Ray |

3 | The point of God's questions to Job? | Job | Hank | 40265 | ||
Ray, my friend, I pray that you are doing well. It is good, for me at least, to visit from time to time these final chapters of Job -- particularly when my vain ego seems to want to expand far beyond its proper size, and I get to thinking how wise I've grown! God's 83 questions never fail to do a superb ego-shrinking job for me. And I come away with a much more realistic perspective of how great God is and of how utterly dependent I am on His power and His grace. On His power to sustain my life on earth -- and on His grace to save me, through faith in His Son, for eternal life in heaven. --Hank | ||||||
