This Lord’s Day, we listen to Zophar’s 2nd speech and Job’s response. In both, we see the limits of human understanding of God’s divine workings in the world, and the flawed sources of attempting to discern His workings.

This Lord’s Day, we listen to Job’s response to Bildad’s 2nd speech. In the process, we are exposed to a deeper level in Job’s suffering; the pain of rejection, yet, we also encounter the power of the Gospel of the Lord Jesus to be sufficient no matter the difficulties in life.

This Lord’s Day, we listen to Bildad’s 2nd speech. Throughout this book, there are many lessons that go beyond learning how to suffer well. In this speech, we see a man who was influenced by another, Eliphaz, teaching us the danger of negative influences in our lives.

This Lord’s Day, Job responds to the second speech from Eliphaz. Within it is the most graphic descriptions of Job’s suffering to date. In them, we see Job’s compassion for his friends leading us to a key principle of ministering to people. We also identify through Job the suffering common to all believers and points us to the sufferings of Christ.

This Lord’s Day, Eliphaz continues to talk and the second half of his speech to Job, he actually speaks truth about the horrible condition unbelievers find themselves before God. He will give us five descriptions of what a person’s life outside of Christ is like. Such awareness should remind ourselves of what the Gospel has delivered us from and intensify our burden for those outside of Christ.
