Job and the Misrepresentation of God’s Character
Does God test His people using sickness, tragedy, & death?
by Troy Edwards
Many approach the book of Job with a number of presuppositions:
- God desires to test Job’s faithfulness.
- God is controlling the actions of the devil.
- That God just might make you the next Job.
These presuppositions demonstrate a failure to study the book of Job in the light of the full revelation of Father God found in Jesus Christ. Hence, Job is misused to present God as a capricious deity.
In this book we will learn how a proper study of Job shows us that Satan’s plan was to discredit both God and Job. We will learn that God did not instigate Job’s trials, but showed the patriarch compassion by delivering him from the designs of Satan against him.
