On Sunday, February 5, 2017, Pastor Joe Troutman preached “Instensive Trials” from Job 2:1-10.
Jesus Christ at every point of his earthly life blessed God and still died so all who cursed God and believe in his Son will never die.
1. Skin for Skin—Though Job was faithful, he was treated as one who had abandoned the Lord. Our suffering for the sake of Christ points back to the suffering of Jesus himself.
2. Six Little Words—Three Hebrew words echo Job’s faithfulness; three echo the curse. Wife holds our his two choices: to bless God or curse him. As Joshua’s call to choose whom you will serve, Job’s response shows he makes the better choice.
3. The Good with the Bad—In Christ, the justified believer is viewed by God as one who has faithfully endured trials .
