| 0:00.0 | Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap. |
| 0:10.5 | We continued to read Job's story today. He's just lost everything except his life, |
| 0:18.0 | and today we had to listen to bad advice from the second of his three friends. |
| 0:21.5 | Yesterday we heard from Elifaz. Today we heard from Bilad. But first we heard Job's response to |
| 0:26.9 | Elifaz. He defends himself. He's despairing, but he doesn't curse God. He knows this pain |
| 0:33.7 | isn't the result of sinful actions. He knows his friends were wrong. One of the questions |
| 0:39.3 | counselors train you to ask yourself in relational difficulty is, where is my sin in this situation? |
| 0:45.2 | What can I own from this situation? And that's an important question to ask, especially because |
| 0:50.8 | we're often blind to our own sin and what we've contributed to the scenario. |
| 0:55.3 | But there are times when life is just hard or when you've just been sinned against and your |
| 1:01.2 | troubles are not the result of something you contributed. We would never tell someone who has been |
| 1:06.2 | raped or physically abused to think about what they did to deserve that or cause that. It's not always |
| 1:12.8 | true that our circumstances and our problems are the result of our choices. Sometimes they're the |
| 1:19.1 | result of a fallen world. Sometimes they're the result of other people's sinful choices. |
| 1:25.0 | Much like with Elifaz, Bill Dad gives bad counsel. He tells Job that he needs to |
| 1:29.7 | repent. But again, Chapter 1 told us that Job was blameless and upright and that these problems |
| 1:35.3 | actually occurred because of his uprightness, not as the result of sin. Job's friends are attacking |
| 1:41.3 | him in the midst of his grief, and it seems like they really think |
| 1:44.7 | they're on the right track. They really think they're helping him, and that if they can just convince |
| 1:49.4 | him to repent, all his troubles will subside. Stay tuned to see how that plays out. Job replies to |
| 1:56.0 | Buildad with a lot of truth about God. And in 915, Job mentions that he would appeal to mercy to his accuser. |
| 2:03.6 | Personally, I'm inclined to think this accuser isn't necessarily a reference to God. I think it's a |
