Subject: The Book of Job and Theological Debates |
Bible Note: Job 42:7 ¶ And it came about after the Lord had spoken these words to Job, that the Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, "My wrath is kindled against you and against your two friends, because you have not spoken of Me what is right as My servant Job has. .......... The Book of Job and Theological Debates. Our opinions are not insignificant to God and theological debates are not wrong. God listens to our opinions and judges them. Job and his friends debated the theological explanation for Job’s horrendous suffering. Some people get very hostile with others who debate theology. They believe strongly that it shouldn’t be done. This is not so with God. His wrath was not directed at Job and his friends for arguing, but at Job’s friends for not saying what was right about God. Peace, Lionstrong, a.k.a. LooseCannon |
