"Hold On" from Job 8:1-22

The book of Job has some questions: Why the righteous man suffer?
Some say that this is the oldest book. We are not sure if Job is the author of this book or some say - Moses.

Hold on to God even if everybody are against you. Job was looking for comfort and yet his friends blame him. This is also the same as "We cannot please everybody".

Bildad did what Eliphaz says to Job. The argument of Bildad here is "if you are innocent God loves you and if not God don't love you".
Remember that Jesus died for us sinners.

There's blessing in obedience but God still love's us despite being disobedient.

Deuteronomy 8:11-19 11 Be careful that you do not forget the LORD your God, failing to observe his commands, his laws and his decrees that I am giving you this day. 12 Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses and settle down, 13 and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all you have is multiplied, 14 then your heart will become proud and you will forget the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. 15 He led you through the vast and dreadful wilderness, that thirsty and waterless land, with its venomous snakes and scorpions. He brought you water out of hard rock. 16 He gave you manna to eat in the wilderness, something your ancestors had never known, to humble and test you so that in the end it might go well with you. 17 You may say to yourself, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me.” 18 But remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth, and so confirms his covenant, which he swore to your ancestors, as it is today.
19 If you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.

Psalm 37:24 though he may stumble, he will not fall,
for the LORD upholds him with his hand.

Luke 6:21 Blessed are you who hunger now,
for you will be satisfied.
Blessed are you who weep now,
for you will laugh.

As Christians, do not be easy to condemn, because our lives are full of challenges. We know that our God is full of foundation and He is our hope.

Nice Christian Life Experiences ~~~
