JOB 5-7
Pastor Rick Jackson
I. THE ADVICE OF ELIPHAZ [5:1-27]
Eliphaz knows of no sin in Job’s life but is convinced there must be unconfessed sin. Job was a sinner saved by grace but God says later Eliphaz was wrong about many things. Though a sinner, Job was not in this fix because of sin. Ultimately the righteous will prevail and the wicked suffer but Job is interested in the ultimate- he is concerned about the immediate!
1. “Ask Anybody & They Will Agree with Me” [v. 1-7, Romans 3:4]
