Job 1:1-22 - Satan, the Great Deceiver deceives even himself. He simply cannot come to terms with God's sovereignty over all things. As many theologians have pointed out, Satan is still God's Satan. What is significant about Job's words of grief expressed at the end of the chapter? To whom does Job attribute both blessings received and tragedies endured? Job's worship seems suprising at first, but how is worship really the most appropriate response to tragedy?
John 1:1-18 - "The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world." (verse 9). The greatness and glory of Christ is manifested in this famous chapter of Scripture. Many Christians think Jesus simply shows up in the New Testament era. Many Christians believe that Jesus simply made a way of salvation possible for us to either take or leave. Here Christ is given His due for His work in Creation and for impacting ALL MEN. Though not all are saved and receive the blessing of membership in God's family by faith - all are impacted by Christ and His Incarnation.
