What will it take to get Job to get down on his knees and pray to God?
Job 1:9 Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought? 10 Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land. 11 But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face. 12 And the Lord said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. So Satan went forth from the presence of the Lord. 13 And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 14 And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: 15 And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 16 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The fire of God is fallen from heaven, and hath burned up the sheep, and the servants, and consumed them; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 17 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, The Chaldeans made out three bands, and fell upon the camels, and have carried them away, yea, and slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. 18 While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: 19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
This sounds like the start of the tribulation for the left behind saints. This follows immediately after the book of Esther which describes what we are seeing today with an evil Haman working on sinister plot for one world government fighting against Mordecai and "Q". So we should compare what is going on with Mordecai and Queen Esther with what is going on with Job. Mordecai is outside the gate in sackcloth. He is a deplorable. Haman wants to kill him and has built a gallows to hang him on it. Queen Esther is working with him to save the country and the people from Haman. Meanwhile Job is over here, he is wealthy, feasting all the time, and clueless about what is going on. His prayer is vague, hey forgive my kids if they have done anything wrong. Today we have those who are keenly aware of the current situation, and how soon we are to an internal revolution in the US along with the beast system and complete control with the mark of the beast. We know they have thousands of guillotines to kill the Lord's people on. So it is just like Esther. Meanwhile what is organized Christianity doing? They have all the celebrations. They will have a church gathering to watch a football game, they will have a church gathering on Halloween and on Christmas and on Easter. They have barbecues and ball games and not one word about the current situation, or the prophecies or how to prepare the saints for what is coming. These are "blind offerings" and "lame offerings".
What we see here are four catastrophes, two are from invading armies and two are natural disasters. I think this is depicting all the Christians worldwide at the start of the tribulation. One way or another you will be impacted if you are a Christian and left behind. They take the oxen and asses, they slay the servants, the sheep are killed, the camels are taken, and the house with all your children has collapsed and killed them. This is what will happen at the start of the tribulation to the apostate church. Antichrist will target Christians. They have been gathering a list of all the members of the various churches. They are all on Facebook which makes it that much easier. The Lord said you would have evil servants in the house, you would have foolish virgins, and you would have lazy servants who buried their treasure. There will be many who will suffer loss. Some will be righteous, like Lot, but not like Noah. Mordecai and Esther are like Noah, they are preaching to repent and they are building a boat to save the people. Job is not doing that, he is praying "God if anyone has sinned please forgive them". What is this? It is a blind prayer and a lame prayer.
8 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?
Consider this, after the rapture, who is left on the earth? There will be many, a great many Christians who have received Jesus Christ's blood. That would make them perfect, upright, ones that fear God and reject evil. But, does that mean they have a daily time in the word with the Lord? Does that mean they are "preachers of righteousness" or simply upright men? There is a time for rejoicing and a time for warfare. The book of Esther tells us it was time for warfare but these guys are over here clueless and feasting.
20 Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, 21 And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord. 22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.
Look at this, Job's goal is to "not sin". You just got smacked in the face by Satan and your concern is to not sin? What about "be a man"? I'm happy that he didn't charge God foolishly, but how about go to God and ask why this happened? How about, "hey God, you are Lord, Satan could never do anything without your permission, so why did you give Him permission to do this?" What will it take to get Job to get down on his knees and pray to God?
Now I am not attacking Job, like God says, he is the best that is left on the earth after the rapture. There will be a whole lot of nominal Christians that are killed and a whole lot of "church buildings" that are destroyed and burned. If you divide the Earth into four sectors with North America being one of the sectors, they will probably be the one where fire from heaven falls and burns up the sheep and kills the servants. That is similar to what happened to Sodom and Gomorrah which is the judgment for the apostate church, for the Great Babylon.
But I think it is very telling "in all this Job sinned not". Is that how you respond to an attack? This certainly sounds like those who have been drenched and pickled in Christianity. Whatever happened to "the violent take the kingdom by force"? If this were your dad how would you feel? Yay, Dad didn't sin! Or, come on Dad fight back!
