"Then Job answered the LORD, and said, I know that Thou canst do every thing, and that no thought can be withholden from Thee. Who is he that hideth counsel without knowledge? Therefore have I uttered that I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. Hear, I beseech thee, and I …

…He is Excellent in Power…
"Touching the Almighty, we cannot find Him out: He is excellent in power, and in judgment, and in plenty of justice: He will not afflict.

…That the Almighty Would Answer Me…
"Oh that one would hear me! Behold, my desire is, that the Almighty would answer me, and that mine Adversary had written a book. Surely I would take it upon my shoulder, and bind it as a crown to me. I would declare unto Him the number of my steps; as a prince would I …
Dealing With Suffering
This is from Sunday morning's sermon (January 01, 2017). Job 1:6-19 Job was one man who suffered more than most of us do. He was known of by the prophet Ezekiel. He was spoken of by James the half brother of Jesus in the book of James. Job lost all that he possessed; including all …
When We Come Forth as Gold

To Plead for a Neighbor
"O that one might plead for a man with God, as a man pleadeth for his neighbour!" Job 16:21 (KJV) Eliphaz, Bildad, and Zophar had come to Job with good intentions.

Correction?
"Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty: for He maketh sore, and bindeth up: He woundeth, and His hands make whole." Job 5:17-18 (KJV) These words are from the first speech of Eliphaz the Temanite; one of Job's three friends who had heard of Job's …
Receipts from God
"Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? Curse God, and die. But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? Shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his …

The Inheritor of Nations
"God stands in the congregation of the mighty; He judges among the gods. How long will you judge unjustly, and accept the persons of the wicked? Selah.

The Token in Every Letter…

Not an Enemy
"For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies. Now them that are such we command and exhort by our Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietness they work, and eat their own bread. But ye, brethren, be not weary in well doing. And if any …
