1 - Personal Integrity
  • Not holier-than-thou attitude
  • He examined his life
  • He took an honest look at his actions
  • He found nothing bad
  • He found no major flaws
  • No murder, adultery or other violation of Gods
    commands

1 - Personal Integrity
  • Job 610b - For I have not concealed (denied) the
    words of the Holy One.
  • Job 1315 - Though He slay me, yet will I trust
    Him. Even so, I will defend my own ways before
    Him.

    know that I shall be vindicated.
  • Job 2312 - I have not departed from the
    commandment of His lips I have treasured the
    words of His mouth More than my necessary food.

6
1 - Personal Integrity
  • Job 275-6 5 Far be it from me That I should
    say you are right Till I die I will not put away
    my integrity from me. 6 My righteousness I hold
    fast, and will not let it go My heart shall not
    reproach me as long as I live.

2 Belief in Gods Ultimate and Final
Righteousness
  • Job 2310 But He knows the way that I take
    When He has tested me, I shall come forth as gold.

8
2 Belief in Gods Ultimate and Final
Righteousness
  • Job 1925-27 25 For I know that my Redeemer
    lives, And He shall stand at last on the earth
    26 And after my skin is destroyed, this I know,
    That in my flesh I shall see God, 27 Whom I shall
    see for myself, And my eyes shall behold, and not
    another. How my heart yearns within me!

2 Belief in Gods Ultimate and Final
Righteousness
  • My Redeemer lives
  • I will live again
  • After death I will see God
  • God will not be a stranger to me
  • My heart yearns for eternity

2 Belief in Gods Ultimate and Final
Righteousness
  • Job did not understand the present situation
  • But he never lost faith in the ultimate and final
    righteousness of God
  • Job never lost his belief that God is Good

11
3 Belief in the Existence of God
  • Job 1925 - For I know that my Redeemer lives,
    And He shall stand at last on the earth
  • When trouble comes pain, distress, suffering -
    -
  • Many lose faith in God

12
3 Belief in the Existence of God
  • Some say, If there is a God
  • Or If God loves me
  • Why is God doing this? (or allowing this to
    happen)
  • If God is all-powerful Why Tusnami? Fire?
    Earthquake? Flood?

13
3 Belief in the Existence of God
  • Psalm 141a The fool has said in his heart,
    There is no God.
  • Romans 120 - For since the creation of the world
    His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being
    understood by the things that are made, even His
    eternal power and Godhead, so that they are
    without excuse,

14
4 Fight with Satan
  • Our battle is not with God
  • Our war is against Satan
  • Job lost some battles but not the war
  • We must overcome

15
4 Fight with Satan
  • All 7 letters to him that overcomes
  • Revelation 217 - He who overcomes shall inherit
    all things, and I will be his God and he shall be
    My son.,

16
4 Fight with Satan
  • Revelation 1211 - And they overcame him by the
    blood of the Lamb and by the word of their
    testimony, and they did not love their lives to
    the death.

4 Fight with Satan
  • Revelation 210 - Do not fear any of those things
    which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil
    is about to throw some of you into prison, that
    you may be tested, and you will have tribulation
    ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will
    give you the crown of life.
