Coming Short of Repentance

December 6, 2020 ()

Bible Text: Job 40:6-14 |

Series:

God continues to address Job in his second speech. Job has no argument or response to God yet this comes short of true repentance. Job must not only drop his case, but repent of his accusations against God.

Here we get a closer look at what God expects in repentance.



Job

The book of Job deals with the topic of suffering. But even more profound that questions surrounding suffering are questions surrounding the nature of God. This book, and thus this sermon series, explores the nature and character of God. The goal, to say with Job from a place of comfort in the midst of suffering, "I had heard of you by the hearing of the ear, but now my eye sees you" (Job 42:5).
