A Study of the Book of Job

The Book of Job presents the story of the sufferings of a man of God at the hands of the devil. God allowed it! In fact God put Job forth to the devil as a wonderful servant of God! The Book of Job teaches how God operates in this world. As a servant of God Job thought he knew God. . . . but not nearly as well as he thought he did. The book contrasts the knowledge of the world represented in the words of Job's three friends to Job's confusion concerning the ways of God to the truth of God explained by the Lord! Hopefully by studying the details of Job's experiences each of us will learn to turn our attention and trust to God - without the need to personally endure affliction and suffering like Job!
