Scripture: Job Chapter 22
Sermon Series: The Book of Job: Relating to God While Suffering in Life
Series Launch Date: 06/14/20
Eliphaz made up his mind that his worldview of a moralistic universe could not be wrong. Thus, Job must have committed big sins; therefore, he was receiving deserved retributions from God. Eliphaz swore that he, himself, would never go the way of the wicked. Then, he advised Job for the last time to repent in order to be restored to glory. The worldview of a machine-like, moralistic universe is a crude approximation of the created, fallen universe ruled over by a holy and sovereign God. Absolutizing the approximation results in doing evil by “good-will.”
