Since Job was under god's promise to protect him and his family and god withdrew it without warning doesn't ?

Question

that make god the real father of all lie ?

Answer 1

No God made it specific. for satan not to harm him personally. But gave satan the power to take away everything, he had. except his life.

God did not break his promiss. If you would of read it, and understood it better..

You would of also read that job  was perfect in his ways and rightous. . And near  the end you would of read where God gave back twice as much as he had before.

I don't understand you people. whenever you read the bible. It seems no matter what. They  seem to always mis-understand it.

It wasn't a bet. if you would of read the whole story, you would of uderstood it

Satan was trying to prove that job would not be a faithful servent, if God took everything away from him.

Answer 2

I always love how God's meant to be good yet he gets away with killing babies, murder, genocide and all-sorts

Killing a family then giving another isn't a good deed

Withdrawing protection does make him a liar and the father of lies - didn't God plan for Satan to be let loose so doesn't that make God responsible for Satan just as God's meant to be all-powerful and all-knowing except for when he isn't

Bible stuff isn't guaranteed to make sense when you get down to it

Answer 3

No

Answer 4

No. God simply uses bad in order to do good. His love and goodness transcends all of that. God doesn't cause bad. Satan did. God allowed Job to be tested to prove a point to Satan. Therefore, God kept his promise. If you got to the end of the story, you'd find that pretty quickly.

Answer 5

I think if god had of tipped Job off it would have been a pointless exercise. The point being,  would an imperfect man stay faithful to god on just faith alone. And if God had of pulled Job aside and given him a heads up it would not have been by faith alone.  

Answer 6

He didn't' read the fine print.

"Rules subject to change without notice."

Answer 7

Could you show me that in scriptures?

Answer 8

aha stop taking those things out of context girl! (or guy whichever you are) God knew that Job would survive whatever trials and suffering brang him and he still praised the Lord! Satan told God that Job would turn his back from God if and when this happened and God knew Job better than that. And man is Job a very good role model. Read the first chapter! I in fact read it last night. I loved it!......................OK everyone, in the first chapter God said that Satan could ruin things (such as his fields, animals, family) but not to touch his body. Come on people it's in the first chapter! lol

Answer 9

He also gave Job another family, i believe JOb saw Gods' work and praised His name!

Answer 10

Yes

Answer 11

And just where does it say that Job 'was under god's promise to protect him and his family'?

Answer 12

God never promised to protect anyone.  Job was being protected from Satan or he would have killed him.  But when he was tested he was not blaming God but the one who actually caused it Satan.

Then Job got everything back.  But God does not promise us protection or riches.  It is TV evangelists who preach God gives us money.  The bible doesn't say that.

Answer 13

NO!!! God promised to protect Job and he did that. Look it up!

Answer 14

God never promised to protect Job.  He knew the strength of Jobs Faith and had blessed him because of that.  

Job 1:8  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?

Satan said it was only because God had given Job so much.

Job 1:10  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.

Job 1:11  But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.

So God permitted Satan to test Jobs' faith.

Job 1:12  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.

God knew Job would come through Satans tests on him.  Even when Satans persecution of Job was at its worst.  Job still held to his Faith in God.  And knew God would stand by him.  Job knew what would happen to those who mocked him for his faith.

Job 27:6  My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go: my heart shall not reproach [me] so long as I live.

Job 27:7  Let mine enemy be as the wicked, and he that riseth up against me as the unrighteous.

Job 27:8  For what [is] the hope of the hypocrite, though he hath gained, when God taketh away his soul?

Job 27:9  Will God hear his cry when trouble cometh upon him?

And for that faithfulness God blessed Job even more than He had before.

Job 42:12  So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses.

Job 42:13  He had also seven sons and three daughters.

Job 42:14  And he called the name of the first, Jemima; and the name of the second, Kezia; and the name of the third, Kerenhappuch.

Job 42:15  And in all the land were no women found [so] fair as the daughters of Job: and their father gave them inheritance among their brethren.

Job 42:16  After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons, and his sons' sons, [even] four generations.

Job 42:17  So Job died, [being] old and full of days.

Answer 15

Job 1, even taken metaphorically, (and I've met some people who take it literally) puts across the most revolting picture of God.

"He also gave Job another family" says one reply.   Fine... Post torture compensation, and just a little tough on the first family, wiped out for a test or a bet.  Mere "collateral damage".

This falls right in line with Paul describing God treating people as clay,  to smash or not as he chooses. (Romans 9)

Answer 16

Go back and re-read the book of Job for your answers!

Show me where, in the book of Job, God promised Job for protection?  Show me ANY thing from within the book of Job that substantiates ANY thing you've claimed!

Doesn't that make YOU the liar, the deceiver, the mocker, and the scorner?

Perhaps you should study a little before you ask any further questions that make you look silly!
