WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:00.440 Amen. 00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:08.779 All right, very good. 00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:12.419 If you have your Bibles, please turn with me to Job chapter 2. 00:00:12.939 --> 00:00:17.640 ! Job chapter 2, we're going to be looking at verses 1 to 10 this morning. 00:00:18.300 --> 00:00:20.920 ! Job, you can find that just before the book of Psalms. 00:00:22.379 --> 00:00:23.120 Chapter 2. 00:00:24.300 --> 00:00:25.500 Have you ever asked yourself the question, 00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:28.780 why do bad things happen to good people? 00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:31.800 That's a question for the ages, isn't it? 00:00:32.659 --> 00:00:38.340 And this passage shed some light on at least a small part of that answer. 00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:39.899 Now, certainly not at all times, 00:00:40.539 --> 00:00:44.399 but sometimes those hardships can be a test of our faith. 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:50.320 And here we see the patriarch Job put through one such agonizing test. 00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:51.799 And how did he fare? 00:00:52.400 --> 00:00:53.260 Well, let's see, shall we? 00:00:53.539 --> 00:00:55.900 Job chapter 2, beginning with verse 1. 00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.159 One day the members of the heavenly court, 00:00:59.159 --> 00:01:01.179 I have a different translation up there. 00:01:01.239 --> 00:01:01.839 Let's use that one. 00:01:02.379 --> 00:01:05.340 On another day, the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, 00:01:05.420 --> 00:01:08.000 and Satan also came with them to present himself before him. 00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:09.759 And the Lord said to Satan, 00:01:09.899 --> 00:01:10.799 Where have you come from? 00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:12.799 And Satan answered the Lord, 00:01:13.500 --> 00:01:16.259 From roaming throughout the earth, going to and fro on it. 00:01:16.759 --> 00:01:17.879 Then the Lord said to Satan, 00:01:18.179 --> 00:01:19.879 Have you considered my servant Job? 00:01:20.319 --> 00:01:21.819 There is no one on earth like him. 00:01:21.819 --> 00:01:23.639 He is blameless and upright, 00:01:24.139 --> 00:01:25.279 A man who fears God, 00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:26.859 And shuns evil. 00:01:27.539 --> 00:01:29.079 And he still maintains his integrity, 00:01:29.459 --> 00:01:30.979 Though you incited me against him, 00:01:31.059 --> 00:01:32.859 To ruin him without any reason. 00:01:33.639 --> 00:01:35.219 Skin for skin, Satan replied, 00:01:35.339 --> 00:01:37.419 A man will give all he has for his own life. 00:01:38.060 --> 00:01:39.419 But now stretch out your hand, 00:01:39.859 --> 00:01:42.019 And strike his flesh and bones, 00:01:42.459 --> 00:01:44.239 And he will surely curse you to your face. 00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:45.959 And the Lord said to Satan, 00:01:46.199 --> 00:01:48.000 Very well then, he is in your hands, 00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:50.120 But you must spare his life. 00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:52.439 So Satan went out from the presence of the Lord, 00:01:52.819 --> 00:01:53.739 And afflicted Job, 00:01:54.060 --> 00:01:56.099 With painful sores from the soles of his feet, 00:01:56.340 --> 00:01:57.299 To the crown of his head. 00:01:58.019 --> 00:01:59.700 Then Job took a piece of broken pottery, 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:01.359 And scraped himself with it, 00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:02.540 As he sat among the ashes. 00:02:03.340 --> 00:02:04.260 His wife said to him, 00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:06.159 Are you still maintaining your integrity? 00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:08.020 Curse God and die. 00:02:08.539 --> 00:02:09.080 He replied, 00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:10.860 You are talking like a foolish woman. 00:02:11.400 --> 00:02:13.319 Shall we accept good from God and not trouble? 00:02:13.920 --> 00:02:14.639 In all this, 00:02:15.080 --> 00:02:17.360 Job did not sin in what he said. 00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:18.500 Amen. 00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:19.599 Thus far the reading of God's word, 00:02:19.680 --> 00:02:20.819 The grass withers and the flower fades, 00:02:21.199 --> 00:02:22.979 But the word of our God stands forever. 00:02:23.740 --> 00:02:24.240 Let's pray. 00:02:26.199 --> 00:02:27.259 Holy Spirit, once again, 00:02:27.340 --> 00:02:28.520 We humble ourselves before you, 00:02:28.620 --> 00:02:29.259 Before your word. 00:02:29.740 --> 00:02:30.319 We ask, Lord, 00:02:30.360 --> 00:02:31.939 That you would speak mightily through it. 00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:35.379 That, Lord, we would be edified in our faith, 00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:36.439 And that you would be glorified. 00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:37.319 And all that is said and done, 00:02:37.379 --> 00:02:38.520 We pray for the sake of Christ our Lord. 00:02:39.039 --> 00:02:39.340 Amen. 00:02:40.199 --> 00:02:40.439 Amen. 00:02:40.439 --> 00:02:40.539 Amen. 00:02:42.979 --> 00:02:43.400 You know, 00:02:43.500 --> 00:02:45.819 It's hard not to notice 00:02:45.819 --> 00:02:47.439 The weather is turning here in Edinburgh. 00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:48.620 Spring is upon us, 00:02:48.819 --> 00:02:51.479 And spring brings us to wedding season. 00:02:52.139 --> 00:02:53.659 Do you have wedding season in Scotland? 00:02:54.300 --> 00:02:56.060 At least we have that in the States. 00:02:56.719 --> 00:02:57.159 And you know, 00:02:57.219 --> 00:02:59.599 One of the happiest days of a person's life 00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:02.099 Is usually the day they get married. 00:03:02.219 --> 00:03:02.379 I mean, 00:03:02.419 --> 00:03:03.939 Who can resist rejoicing 00:03:03.939 --> 00:03:05.379 When two young people in love 00:03:05.379 --> 00:03:08.159 Come together before friends and family 00:03:08.159 --> 00:03:09.240 And loved one in the church 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:11.939 To pledge their undying loyalty 00:03:11.939 --> 00:03:13.699 And affection to each other. 00:03:14.659 --> 00:03:16.000 They get all dressed up 00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:18.060 With the men in their sharp-looking tuxedos 00:03:18.060 --> 00:03:20.259 And the bride in her stunning white gown. 00:03:20.639 --> 00:03:23.060 And the groom waits for his bride 00:03:23.060 --> 00:03:24.979 At the center aisle. 00:03:25.460 --> 00:03:28.060 And they make solemn vows before God. 00:03:28.139 --> 00:03:29.879 Usually those vows sound something like this. 00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:31.199 I, Prince Charming, 00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:31.759 Take you, 00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:32.680 Fairy Princess, 00:03:33.539 --> 00:03:34.620 And, of course, vice versa. 00:03:34.620 --> 00:03:37.340 To be my wedded wife. 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:39.599 And I do promise and covenant before God 00:03:39.599 --> 00:03:40.099 And these witnesses 00:03:40.099 --> 00:03:42.780 To be your loving and faithful spouse. 00:03:44.640 --> 00:03:45.879 For better or for worse. 00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:47.659 In plenty in want. 00:03:48.340 --> 00:03:49.420 In joy and in sorrow. 00:03:49.539 --> 00:03:50.379 In sickness and in health. 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:51.740 To love and to cherish. 00:03:52.159 --> 00:03:53.400 As long as we both shall live. 00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:54.879 And, 00:03:55.159 --> 00:03:57.599 If the statistics are to be believed, 00:03:58.580 --> 00:04:00.780 Roughly 40 to 50% of the time, 00:04:01.180 --> 00:04:02.759 They're both lying through their teeth, 00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:03.099 Aren't they? 00:04:03.099 --> 00:04:07.060 At least that's what the divorce researchers tell us 00:04:07.060 --> 00:04:08.560 On the Divorce Reform website. 00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:11.180 Approximately 40 to 50%, 00:04:11.180 --> 00:04:13.000 Depends on which statistics you follow, 00:04:13.519 --> 00:04:15.379 40 to 50% of British marriages 00:04:15.379 --> 00:04:17.500 Ultimately end in divorce. 00:04:18.860 --> 00:04:20.959 Now, usually there are dreams of 00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:22.060 Happily ever after. 00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:23.860 After the wedding. 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:26.680 But the sad fact is that 00:04:26.680 --> 00:04:28.399 After the honeymoon is over, 00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:29.180 Life hits. 00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:31.620 And we still live in a fallen world. 00:04:31.620 --> 00:04:32.780 And sometimes, 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:35.160 There will be those times 00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:36.160 When things aren't better. 00:04:36.879 --> 00:04:37.879 But they're worse. 00:04:38.660 --> 00:04:40.480 When we're not in plenty. 00:04:41.180 --> 00:04:42.139 We're in want. 00:04:43.420 --> 00:04:44.720 Times when there's no joy. 00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:46.459 There's only sorrow. 00:04:47.420 --> 00:04:48.280 Health went away. 00:04:48.959 --> 00:04:50.579 And now we are dealing with sickness. 00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:52.459 And it's at times like that, 00:04:52.840 --> 00:04:54.899 That a married couple's love 00:04:54.899 --> 00:04:56.439 Is put to the test. 00:04:56.439 --> 00:04:58.300 You see, 00:04:58.480 --> 00:04:59.379 You can't tell 00:04:59.379 --> 00:05:01.040 What a married couple's 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:02.439 Relationship is made of 00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:03.740 Until they go through 00:05:03.740 --> 00:05:04.939 Some hard times. 00:05:05.180 --> 00:05:06.259 And that's when we see 00:05:06.259 --> 00:05:07.519 If their love has that 00:05:07.519 --> 00:05:08.879 Stick togetherness 00:05:08.879 --> 00:05:10.379 That is essential 00:05:10.379 --> 00:05:11.360 For a happy marriage. 00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:12.899 And of course, 00:05:12.980 --> 00:05:14.519 What's true of a happy marriage 00:05:14.519 --> 00:05:16.579 Is also true 00:05:16.579 --> 00:05:17.759 Of your relationship with God. 00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:19.219 You see, 00:05:19.259 --> 00:05:19.659 It's easy 00:05:19.659 --> 00:05:21.339 To serve the Lord 00:05:21.339 --> 00:05:22.319 When you've got no problems 00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:23.759 And things are going well. 00:05:24.240 --> 00:05:25.379 But how is your faith 00:05:25.379 --> 00:05:26.360 Going to hold up 00:05:26.360 --> 00:05:27.779 When hardship hits? 00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:30.819 When bad things happen to you 00:05:30.819 --> 00:05:32.259 For some unknown reason. 00:05:32.420 --> 00:05:33.879 When things just don't seem 00:05:33.879 --> 00:05:34.680 To make any sense. 00:05:34.779 --> 00:05:35.779 And God doesn't seem 00:05:35.779 --> 00:05:37.279 To be looking out for you. 00:05:37.599 --> 00:05:39.120 Like he doesn't care for you. 00:05:39.300 --> 00:05:41.259 He's not looking out 00:05:41.259 --> 00:05:41.759 For your interests. 00:05:43.159 --> 00:05:43.420 You see, 00:05:43.899 --> 00:05:44.680 That's what this text 00:05:44.680 --> 00:05:45.699 Is really about this morning. 00:05:45.819 --> 00:05:47.319 Job was a righteous man. 00:05:47.839 --> 00:05:48.759 He was prosperous. 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:49.740 He had served the Lord 00:05:49.740 --> 00:05:50.759 All of his life. 00:05:51.040 --> 00:05:51.839 And here we see 00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:53.620 His faith is put to a test 00:05:53.620 --> 00:05:56.699 To see if he would remain righteous 00:05:56.699 --> 00:05:58.159 If his prosperity 00:05:58.159 --> 00:05:59.459 Were taken away. 00:06:00.259 --> 00:06:01.500 And as you see from the text, 00:06:02.100 --> 00:06:03.600 We see how he passed the test. 00:06:04.180 --> 00:06:04.800 And that leads us 00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:06.180 To our proposition this morning. 00:06:06.279 --> 00:06:07.379 So, what is the sermon about? 00:06:07.519 --> 00:06:08.480 Well, here it is in a nutshell. 00:06:09.159 --> 00:06:10.120 By way of summary. 00:06:10.839 --> 00:06:12.740 Since hardship and adversity 00:06:12.740 --> 00:06:14.300 Reveal the true mettle 00:06:14.300 --> 00:06:15.000 Of your faith, 00:06:15.560 --> 00:06:16.159 Be prepared. 00:06:16.160 --> 00:06:17.640 For your faith 00:06:17.640 --> 00:06:18.780 To be tested 00:06:18.780 --> 00:06:20.680 Through the tough times. 00:06:21.240 --> 00:06:21.920 That's really where 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:22.720 I want to go with this 00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:24.120 In Job chapter 2. 00:06:24.200 --> 00:06:25.180 And you'll see how we get there 00:06:25.180 --> 00:06:27.000 As we begin to unpack this text. 00:06:27.100 --> 00:06:27.640 But with that said, 00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:28.440 Let's go ahead and dive in, 00:06:28.460 --> 00:06:28.700 Shall we? 00:06:28.699 --> 00:06:30.300 The first thing I want you 00:06:30.300 --> 00:06:31.500 To take away from this text 00:06:31.500 --> 00:06:32.939 Is the fact that 00:06:32.939 --> 00:06:34.680 Because hardship reveals 00:06:34.680 --> 00:06:36.420 The true nature 00:06:36.420 --> 00:06:37.839 Of your faith, 00:06:38.479 --> 00:06:39.099 Point number one, 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:40.519 You need to prepare 00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:41.819 To be tested. 00:06:42.560 --> 00:06:43.599 Because that hardship 00:06:43.599 --> 00:06:45.019 Is coming. 00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:46.219 It's not optional. 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:47.599 Not a single one of us 00:06:47.599 --> 00:06:48.519 Is going to escape it. 00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:49.360 And that hardship 00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:50.639 Is going to test 00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:51.719 Whether or not 00:06:51.719 --> 00:06:53.000 Our profession of faith 00:06:53.000 --> 00:06:54.579 Has any substance 00:06:54.579 --> 00:06:55.639 Minded or not. 00:06:56.479 --> 00:06:58.060 Whether our Christian life 00:06:58.060 --> 00:06:59.979 Is all talk 00:06:59.979 --> 00:07:00.599 And no walk. 00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:02.899 Consider Job for a moment. 00:07:03.500 --> 00:07:05.000 Why was he being singled out 00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:05.560 Like this? 00:07:06.279 --> 00:07:07.259 It was because 00:07:07.259 --> 00:07:08.680 He was a righteous man. 00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:10.620 He wasn't about to endure 00:07:10.620 --> 00:07:11.779 This adversity 00:07:11.779 --> 00:07:13.079 Because he was somehow 00:07:13.079 --> 00:07:13.579 Sinning 00:07:13.579 --> 00:07:14.139 And he's somehow 00:07:14.139 --> 00:07:15.620 Reaping the consequences 00:07:15.620 --> 00:07:16.639 Of his sinful behavior. 00:07:16.919 --> 00:07:17.839 No, it's because 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:19.419 He lived a life 00:07:19.419 --> 00:07:21.039 Totally dedicated 00:07:21.040 --> 00:07:22.260 To God. 00:07:22.379 --> 00:07:23.280 And in so doing 00:07:23.280 --> 00:07:25.060 He made a powerful enemy 00:07:25.060 --> 00:07:26.180 For himself, didn't he? 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:27.439 The devil. 00:07:28.100 --> 00:07:28.700 And as we see 00:07:28.700 --> 00:07:29.319 Through chapter one 00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:30.220 He suffered for it. 00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:32.140 He lost his livelihood. 00:07:32.700 --> 00:07:34.040 He lost his wealth. 00:07:34.340 --> 00:07:35.340 He lost his property. 00:07:35.920 --> 00:07:37.160 He lost his status. 00:07:37.520 --> 00:07:38.720 He even lost his children 00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:40.000 To freak accidents. 00:07:40.400 --> 00:07:41.020 And these things 00:07:41.020 --> 00:07:41.939 Were only the beginning 00:07:41.939 --> 00:07:43.040 Of his troubles 00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:44.560 Because Satan's hatred 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:45.500 Of Job 00:07:45.500 --> 00:07:46.420 Wouldn't let up. 00:07:46.420 --> 00:07:47.560 He was hated 00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:49.500 With a passionate hatred. 00:07:50.420 --> 00:07:50.640 Why? 00:07:51.840 --> 00:07:52.980 Because God loved him. 00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:54.740 And so even after 00:07:54.740 --> 00:07:55.640 All these things 00:07:55.640 --> 00:07:56.939 Satan comes to God 00:07:56.939 --> 00:07:57.560 With a request 00:07:57.560 --> 00:07:58.700 To afflict Job 00:07:58.700 --> 00:07:59.500 Even more. 00:07:59.580 --> 00:08:00.220 But this time 00:08:00.220 --> 00:08:01.060 The hurt will be 00:08:01.060 --> 00:08:02.200 In his own body. 00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:04.080 Look at verses four and five 00:08:04.080 --> 00:08:04.660 Again. 00:08:05.600 --> 00:08:06.520 Satan replied to the Lord 00:08:06.520 --> 00:08:07.160 Skin for skin 00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:07.840 A man will give up 00:08:07.840 --> 00:08:08.720 Everything he has 00:08:08.720 --> 00:08:09.860 To save his life 00:08:09.860 --> 00:08:11.040 But reach out 00:08:11.040 --> 00:08:12.160 And take away his health 00:08:12.160 --> 00:08:13.360 And he will surely 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:14.379 Curse you 00:08:14.379 --> 00:08:16.300 To your face. 00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:17.220 So Satan 00:08:17.220 --> 00:08:17.939 Says 00:08:17.939 --> 00:08:19.160 Let me torment him 00:08:19.160 --> 00:08:20.259 With sickness 00:08:20.259 --> 00:08:21.339 And Job 00:08:21.339 --> 00:08:22.839 Will deny his faith 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:23.259 You'll see 00:08:23.259 --> 00:08:24.800 He'll curse you 00:08:24.800 --> 00:08:25.939 To your face 00:08:25.939 --> 00:08:28.060 Of course 00:08:28.060 --> 00:08:29.639 The Lord knows 00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:30.279 The integrity 00:08:30.279 --> 00:08:31.959 Of Job's faith 00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:32.879 And essentially says 00:08:32.879 --> 00:08:33.279 Go ahead 00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.200 Knock yourself out 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:36.819 Just don't kill him 00:08:36.820 --> 00:08:38.160 And so Satan 00:08:38.160 --> 00:08:38.160 00:08:38.160 --> 00:08:38.760 Goes out 00:08:38.760 --> 00:08:39.780 To bring more 00:08:39.780 --> 00:08:40.220 Troubles 00:08:40.220 --> 00:08:41.520 On this righteous man 00:08:41.520 --> 00:08:41.800 You see 00:08:41.800 --> 00:08:42.860 Job's faith 00:08:42.860 --> 00:08:43.860 Is about to be 00:08:43.860 --> 00:08:45.379 Tested to the extreme 00:08:45.379 --> 00:08:46.160 And only then 00:08:46.160 --> 00:08:46.780 Will we see 00:08:46.780 --> 00:08:47.740 What kind 00:08:47.740 --> 00:08:48.740 Of believer 00:08:48.740 --> 00:08:50.300 He really is 00:08:50.299 --> 00:08:52.259 Have you ever heard 00:08:52.259 --> 00:08:52.659 The phrase 00:08:52.659 --> 00:08:53.779 The proof of the pudding 00:08:53.779 --> 00:08:54.259 Is in the Eden 00:08:54.259 --> 00:08:55.819 Maybe that's 00:08:55.819 --> 00:08:56.679 Just an American 00:08:56.679 --> 00:08:57.879 Term of phrase 00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:00.099 But the only way 00:09:00.099 --> 00:09:00.659 That you can tell 00:09:00.659 --> 00:09:01.099 If the pudding 00:09:01.099 --> 00:09:01.519 Is any good 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:01.899 Is

00:09:04.839 --> 00:09:05.779 Well that's what 00:09:05.779 --> 00:09:06.299 We have here 00:09:06.299 --> 00:09:07.500 Job 00:09:07.500 --> 00:09:09.219 May look like 00:09:09.219 --> 00:09:10.000 A

there are no 00:09:18.180 --> 00:09:19.100 Clouds in the sky 00:09:19.100 --> 00:09:20.419 But what's going 00:09:20.419 --> 00:09:20.820 To happen 00:09:20.820 --> 00:09:21.759 When the storm

To abandon 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:27.120 His faith 00:09:27.120 --> 00:09:28.539 Is he going 00:09:28.539 --> 00:09:29.240 To curse God 00:09:29.240 --> 00:09:29.820 And die 00:09:29.820 --> 00:09:32.279 We'll only know 00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:33.659 After his faith 00:09:33.659 --> 00:09:34.480 Has been 00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:35.480 Tested 00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:35.899 You see 00:09:35.899 --> 00:09:36.360 This is what 00:09:36.360 --> 00:09:37.320 The apostle Peter 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:38.220 Is talking about 00:09:38.220 --> 00:09:39.259 In 1st Peter chapter 1 00:09:39.259 --> 00:09:40.500 And verse 7 00:09:40.500 --> 00:09:41.200 Where he says 00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:43.320 So be truly glad 00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:44.460 There is wonderful 00:09:44.460 -->

00:09:49.300 --> 00:09:50.160 For a while 00:09:50.160 --> 00:09:51.360 These trials 00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:52.340 Are only a test 00:09:52.340 --> 00:09:52.800 Your faith 00:09:52.800 --> 00:09:53.700 To show that 00:09:53.700 --> 00:09:54.260 It is strong 00:09:54.260 --> 00:09:54.660 And pure 00:09:54.660 --> 00:09:55.860 It is being tested 00:09:55.860 --> 00:09:56.800 As fire tests 00:09:56.800 --> 00:09:57.760 And purifies gold 00:09:57.760 --> 00:09:58.820 And your faith 00:09:58.820 --> 00:10:00.320 Is far more precious 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:00.680 To God 00:10:00.680 --> 00:10:01.220 Than mere gold 00:10:01.220 --> 00:10:02.920 So if your faith 00:10:02.920 --> 00:10:03.700 Remains strong 00:10:03.700 --> 00:10:04.540 After being tried 00:10:04.540 --> 00:10:05.700 By

00:10:10.140 On the day 00:10:10.140 --> 00:10:10.960 When Jesus Christ 00:10:10.960 --> 00:10:12.060 Is revealed 00:10:12.060 --> 00:10:12.940 To the whole world 00:10:12.940 --> 00:10:15.260 And there you have it 00:10:15.260 --> 00:10:16.380 True faith 00:10:16.380 --> 00:10:17.340 Is only known 00:10:17.340 --> 00:10:19.320 After it has been tested 00:10:19.320 --> 00:10:21.660 And proven true 00:10:21.660 --> 00:10:23.560 And the same is true 00:10:23.560 --> 00:10:24.640 With you as well 00:10:24.640 --> 00:10:25.940 Do you 00:10:25.940 --> 00:10:27.500 Profess faith in Christ 00:10:27.500 --> 00:10:29.240 Well then prepare 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:30.660 To have your faith 00:10:30.660 --> 00:10:31.660 Tested 00:10:31.660 --> 00:10:33.060 Because the same devil 00:10:33.060 --> 00:10:34.120 That hated Job 00:10:34.120 --> 00:10:35.720 With a passionate hatred 00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:37.460 Hates you too 00:10:37.460 --> 00:10:39.460 And for the same reason 00:10:39.460 --> 00:10:41.259 Because you're loved 00:10:41.259 --> 00:10:41.700 By God 00:10:41.700 --> 00:10:43.100 And he hates 00:10:43.100 --> 00:10:43.700 Everything that God 00:10:43.700 --> 00:10:44.280 Stands for 00:10:44.280 --> 00:10:45.100 And everything 00:10:45.100 --> 00:10:46.040 That's precious to him 00:10:46.040 --> 00:10:47.660 And so it seems 00:10:47.660 --> 00:10:48.400 As if you're in

--> 00:10:54.320 You earn the hatred 00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:55.180 Of the devil 00:10:55.180 --> 00:10:56.160 And he'll do his utmost 00:10:56.160 --> 00:10:57.000 To bring your life 00:10:57.000 --> 00:10:57.879 To misery and ruin 00:10:57.879 --> 00:10:59.580 Then again 00:10:59.580 --> 00:11:00.120 On the other hand 00:11:00.120 --> 00:11:01.320 If you don't 00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:02.060 Obey the Lord 00:11:02.060 --> 00:11:03.639 Well the devil 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:04.620 Isn't interested in you 00:11:04.620 --> 00:11:05.040 Is he? 00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:06.080 He's got you right 00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:06.740 Where he wants you 00:11:06.740 --> 00:11:08.139 But then you're liable 00:11:08.139 --> 00:11:09.080 To fall into the 00:11:09.080 --> 00:11:09.860 Vengeable hands 00:11:09.860 --> 00:11:11.159 Of someone else 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:12.399 Who will be much more 00:11:12.399 --> 00:11:14.080 Terrible on judgment day 00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:14.820 Someone who will
