Job The Real Story

The Truth About Job Job On the theme of God knowing it all He was talking with the Adversary way after the Fall They seem to be close and made a bet I have an idea, said Adversary, let’s Job vet. And so these two, what disasters they’d bring, If from Job, they took everything. A wager, a bet. How human this god be Not knowing whether Job would defy or plea. But wait, that problem again does arise, This does not show God as being too wise. He did not know what Job would think? Is this a God on the very brink Of being less than all knowing And not understanding whether Job would be bowing? And with all that, at the very end Job loses all but refuses to bend His love for this Deity who took away all, His belief that his God still stood tall. But wait, there’s more, throughout all this All Job asked was, “How was I remiss?” And then the Lord deemed to say How dare you, Job, question my way? Where are you when I create? Can you ocean and storm abate? As poor an answer as I’ve ever heard. God has acted like a turd. He tortured Job on a lark As a response to the Adversary’s bark. Apologists will tell you, but God returned it all. This is a god with tremendous gall. Killing his children then giving him more, Still makes God rotten down to His core. The loss of a child is never relieved And again, this Deity simply deceived Job.
