Bible Question: I am a Christian and have started studying the book of Job and I am dumbfounded right at the beginning. Why does God take on a challenge from Satan? God doesn't need to prove anything, especially to Satan. Why did he tell/give permission to Satan to do what he did to Job? Jesus did not give in to Satan's temptation in the desert and prove to Satan who He was, so why did God do this? |
Bible Answer: Why did God ask Abraham to sacrifice his only son to Him? I don't have any specific Bible references here but think that (since God doesn't need any "proof") perhaps others in heaven do? Anybody else have any thoughts on this? It's a good quesion. |
