Scripture: Job Chapers 4 & 5
Sermon Series: The Book of Job - Launched 06/14/2020
Job’s friend, Eliphaz, represents reason, and he provides comfort to the suffering Job while also questioning the latter’s fear of God and overall integrity. He asked Job to be patient, consistent, realistic, and submissive to God. While his words are 90% true, and sometimes quoted by NT apostles, the 10% that are wrong make his whole approach unfit and injurious. Much of Eliphaz’s advice comes from personal experience but at times sounds like it is actually from Satan.
