Speeches, Round One: Job / Bildad

Job 6-8

September 15, 2019 • John Morrison • Job 6—8

Job responds to Eliphaz that a man’s friends should be kind to him so he doesn’t forsake fear of God. He wishes that God would let him die and quit staring silently at him. Bildad corrects Job by letting him know his belief that blessing correlates directly with obedience. So what is true? God sometimes has plans which fit His kingdom purposes which don’t fit the world we can see, understand and hope to control.

The Young Man Elihu

October 27, 2019 • John Morrison • Job 32—37

Elihu has waited patiently while the older friends have said their peace, but he cannot sit by another minute and listen to their advice or interpretation of this tragedy. Elihu wants them all to hear what he has to say. He thinks that they have all been wrong. As you study, notice what observations he repeats and what is a new information. Does he have the right take on the situation? Or have they ALL "missed the boat?"
