Job 13:

- He can’t stay silent!

- Can you stay silent?

- The more we learn about Yah.weh, the more we should want to speak about him!

- That’s the basis for a faithful servant of Yah.weh!

- And not from time to time!

- All the time!

- He wants to complain to God!

- Do we want to complain to Yah.weh?

- Do we want to tell our deep feelings to Yah.weh?

- Do we really want to speak to Yah.weh?

- Do we enjoy speaking to Yah.weh?

- Is it similar to eating and drinking and breathing daily?

- Only from men!

- He needs to talk to God like eating or drinking or sleeping!

- It is a natural need!

- He is used to being completely connected to Yah.weh!

Job 14:

- Job thinks God is judging him!

- Yah.weh acted with the Hebrews according to their deeds!

- It has always been the same with mankind!

- He has given mankind a lot of time!

- But it won’t last forever!

- He decided to limit human life!

- He is asking God for a rest!

- When he dies he is powerless!

- Do we speak frankly to Yah.weh?

- He is not afraid of telling him what he thinks!

- Are we afraid of telling him what we think?

- What a relationship!

- What about us?

- He calls them troublesome comforters!

- They bring problems!

- Something is wrong and unnatural on their part!

- If he were them, he would encourage them!

- Job is mentally and physically down but he still finds the energy to fight back!

- He thinks God has taken everything away from him!

- And his enemies are striking him!

- And he keeps talking about his pain and suffering!

- Thus he is left alone without any comfort!

- He is only waiting for death but till the last breath, he will fight and speak to God!

- He still thinks God will listen to him!

- In fact, it is his only hope he still has!

- Do we think Yah.weh listens to us?

- Do we act so Yah.weh listens to us?

Job 17:

- He is broken!

- Have you ever been broken?

- Then you can understand his feelings!

- It is always easier to understand someone’s situation when we have personally lived it!

- Unfortunately many people know it better!

- The problem is that they haven’t known such a situation!

- You find such a situation with doctors and people working for human justice!

- In fact, it is everywhere!

- If you just learn it at school or university, it doesn’t work and it will never work!

- That’s why we are where we are!

- Everywhere we hear politicians who know better!

- the problem is they only know communication!

- But real people don’t need communication!

- They need to improve their personal situation!

- Today we only get fakes everywhere!

- We only get liars and lies!

- And people believe them because they want to believe it!

- But the situation will only be worse!

- We get what we deserve!

- And Yah.weh will wait till the last time befor acting against this society!

- There will probably always be people who will say everything is fine when everything is collapsing!

- Let’s think about Hitler in his bunker just at the end of World War 2!

- Now if you survive, is it possible to wait for death a second time?

- Or will you fight without any conditions?

- He only sees mockers!

- People spit at him!

- The three individuals are of no help to him!

- He just wants to put an end to his condition and die!

- He has enough!

- He doesn’t want anymore!

Job 19:

- They irritate his soul!

- They deal harshly with him!

- When we listen carefully to Job speaking of the three individuals and we connect it to God’s judgment regarding the three individuals, we understand better and realize how Job was right when he spoke about their attitude!

- They just want to show that they are better than Job!

- It is quite a usual situation!

- Job always fights back!

- Fighting back is a way of educating people!

- Sometimes we may think it is good for nothing, nothing will change!

- Sometimes we may think people are too old!

- Sometimes we may think it is a way to participate in society!

- And Job is asking God why there is so much violence!

- And he gets no answer!

- And he keeps crying out but there is no justice!

- Everybody has left him!

- He doesn’t understand anything!

- Sometimes it is not necessary to understand to fight back!

- Sometimes it is a way to feel alive!

- Yah.weh’s faithful servants are always active, never passive because Yah.weh is a God of action!

- That’s why the devil is tricky and vicious!

- He knows all that!

- And he is laughing!

- He would TAKE NOTE!

- Do we take note?

- And he knows God would listen to him!

- And he knows that God will acquit him!

- He knows he is TESTED, and he knows that he will come out AS PURE GOLD!

- Job says that the three individuals are good to nothing!

- He is asking who inspired them!

- Certainly not God!

- God is Almighty!

- He stretches out the northern sky over empty space!

- SUSPENDING THE EARTH UPON NOTHING!

- It is so different from the different theories of the time!

- It looks like the medical measures the Hebrews received from Yah.weh to avoid diseases at the time!

- So different from what the peoples around used to do!

- But he is the creator of everything!

- So he knows what to do at the difference of men!

- And who can understand his mighty thunder?

- There are so many examples in the Bible which show the difference between Yah.weh and the rest!

- But men have never cared!

- They always think they know better, meaning they know nothing!

- We can see the results today!

- And the more time passes, the clearer it is!

-Except for those who don’t want to see!

- They can keep sleeping!

- For them everything is written!

Job 28:

- Man digs for wealth!

- But it is not the same story for WISDOM!

- You can’t buy WISDOM!

- The fear of God – that is wisdom!

- And to turn away from bad is understanding!

- Job can only stay close to God!

- He is a magnet to him!

- But it is not something natural for men!

- We must learn so Yah.weh can be a magnet for us!

- We can visualize the image of a magnet attracting metal!

- Now even better if we visualize a gigantic magnet and its power!

-Now even better if we visualize a sun attracting and maintaining planets in all the solar systems of the universe!

- Now even better if we visualize the black holes maintaining the universe stable!

- And they only represent about 1% of all normal matter!

Are there 40 quintillion black holes in our universe?

- A quintillion is 10^18!

- Or 1,000,000,000,000,000,000.

There are 40 quintillion black holes in the cosmos, according to new estimates. That's more black holes than previously thought. This calculation suggests that these black holes constitute about 1% of all normal matter.

- He can’t live without him!

- He doesn’t matter what happens!

- But it is another story with man!

- He wants his relationship to God!

- He speaks about God’s relationship!

- He speaks about God being with him!

- And he wants his past life back to him!

- For him, there is no better life!

- He just wants his normal life, nothing more!

- Thinking of the past after a catastrophe, when you have lost everything, is something normal!

- But there is a time to look forward!

- There is a time to rebuild everything!

- Of course, it takes time!

- But there is no other choice!

- Otherwise we may be trapped forever in the past!

- Of course, there will always be side effects!

- But there is nothing better than reconstruction and action!

- Then it is necessary to learn how to live with the ghosts of the past!

Job 30:

- Once again, God is his only reference!

- He only knows him!

- So he thinks God is responsible for his bad situation!

- But he keeps crying to God for his help!

- Even if he doesn’t understand what’s on, he knows his situation can only improve with God’s help!

- And thinking that God is against him is unbearable for him!

- If God doesn’t help him, he will die!

- He doesn’t see any other option!

- Even if Job doesn’t have all the elements, he has a clear vision of the situation, taking into account the elements he has!

- Another part of his personality we should copy!

- As usual, even if the majority does it, we must not let others do the job for us, that is think for us!

- Because when Jesus comes back, he won’t tolerate those who don’t do their part of the job!

- It won’t be possible to say, it’s not my fault, it’s somebody’s fault!

- Remember what happened to Adam when he rejected the fault on Eve saying it is the fault of the woman you gave me!

- He died!

- Remember Lot’s wife!

- She chose and she died!

- Remember the Hebrews, they opposed Yah.weh and they died!

Job 31:

- Definition of inheritance: It is a process which involves the passing on of material property from one generation to another, usually within the family, generally from older parents (donors) to their adult children (heirs), which is completed after the death of the older generation.

- Job speaks about a relationship between members of the same family!

- And when we listen to Job, he speaks about God like his father!

- And it doesn’t matter how he feels, he keeps speaking the same way!

- That’s his reality, there is no other reality for him!

- What is our reality?

- How do we see Yah.weh?

- Do we see him as a Father?

- If not, we have a problem!

- Because if we don’t see him as a Father, he won’t see us as a son!

- And if he doesn’t see us as a son, why should he care about us?

- So imagine when the time comes for him to exterminate this world, what will happen with us?

- No son, nothing!
