WHEN FAITH MEETS REASON
Pastor Rick Jackson
Elihu, younger than Job and his 3 friends, continues to reason with them and the crowd.
I. PROPER THINKING IS IMPORTANT [34:1-30]
Nowhere does the Bible ask us to commit intellectual suicide. Jesus said, “You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.” In Isaiah 1:18 God says, “Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.” The Christian faith is a reasonable faith [Rm. 12:1-2] and it is the only world view that makes total sense.
1. A Martyrs Complex Joins Bad Company [v. 1-9]
2. Consider the Hearers as well as the Objects of Discussion [v. 10-20]
3. The Greatness of the Almighty should give you Pause [v. 21-30]
II. PROPER SPEAKING IS IMPORTANT [34:31-35:13]
1. With Humility [34:31-34]
2. With Knowledge [34:35-35:3]
3. With Understanding [35:4-13] of God’s Transcendence
III. PROPER PERSONAL APPLICATION IS IMPORTANT [35:14-16]
1. God does Know- Trust Him [v. 14]
Is. 55:8-9 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
2. Ignorance Often Imagines Falsely [v. 15]
3. Ignorance Often Speaks Long [v. 16]
“It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear ignorant than to open it and remove all doubt”

WHEN FAITH MEETS FAITH
Pastor Rick Jackson
There is a difference of opinion concerning Elihu amongst Christians. Some claim him to be like Job’s 3 friends and another tool of the Devil while others believe him to be an earnest youth, not perfect, but certainly a tool of God. Count me as one of the latter for several reasons.
1) Elihu is sensitive to Job’s suffering
2) Elihu claims God is his source of wisdom- not age, intelligence or experience
3) when God rebukes Job’s 3 friends he does not rebuke Elihu
I. ELIHU’S INTRODUCTION [32]
1. His Wrath [v. 1-3]
2. His Restraint [v. 4-6]
3. His Inspiration [v. 7-22, 1 Corinthians 2:11]
For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.
1 Timothy 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
II. ELIHU’S EXPLANATION [33:1-11]
1. From the Heart [v. 1-3]
2. From Commonality [v. 4-7]
3. From Paying Attention [v. 8-11]
III. ELIHU’S THEOLOGY [33:12-33]
1. God is Worthy [v. 12-13, Romans 3:4]
…yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Is. 55:8-9 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
2. God is Working [v. 14-25] Esp. v. 18 cf. II Cor. 12:7-10
3. God is Waiting [v. 26-33]
Hebrews 12 teaches that there are 3 ways to meet the chastening hand of God
1) despise it [v. 5] as though God was not involved in it
2) faint under it [v. 5] be a quitter
3) be exercised by it [v. 11]
