The Suffering of Job (Newlife Church Toronto)

“And this leads us to the third thing that will hopefully give you some comfort, which is, in the end, God will make things right. His ways are beyond our ways. I will see my redeemer with my own eyes, Job says, and Christians have always taken that as a picture of him seeing the resurrection. The resurrection and what we call ultimate justice. Let's read Job 19:25. I know that my redeemer lives, and that in the end, he will stand on the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh, I will see God. I myself will see him with my own eyes. I, not another, how my heart yearns within me. This is Job realizing, someday I'll see God. Someday I'll get it. … Someday death will be defeated, We have a number of issues that we have to deal with as humans. We have to deal with sin, self, I'd say silence from God, what feels like silence, suffering, Satan, and finally death itself. The wicked will finally find retribution. There will be judgment. The innocent will find resurrection, eternal life, those who love in Christ.”
