The Word for today: Job 13:1 -- 14:22

Job's philosophy as he struggles to understand his plight is often wrong-headed, but on this question--If a man dies, shall he live again?--Job never wavers. Soon, we'll hear Job's cry of faith:
I know that my Redeemer lives,
and that in the end he will stand upon 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, and not another.
How my heart yearns within me! (1)
and that in the end he will stand upon 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, and not another.
How my heart yearns within me! (1)
The resurrection of Jesus Christ--and the promise that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have everlasting life--is the bedrock of Christian faith.
Because of Jesus, the answer is a resounding, "Yes!"
(1) Job 19:25-27
