Almost all of Jacob's children are born to him by his four wives (not good advice) and it is time for him to go back to his father so he can claim the land that God had promised him. But God has prospered Laban through Jacob and he doesn't want to let him go. With these two involved, trickery ensues and eventually, Jacob is free to leave with his wives, children, and flocks, and a couple of household gods thrown in for good measure.

*Content Advisory* Today's text deals with the sin and destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and includes fairly graphic descriptions of gang rape and incest. You may want little ears in the other room as we discuss homosexuality and perversion and their place in the pantheon of sins and how all of us are in need of grace.

Abram and Sarai become Abraham and Sarah, and they are so excited about God's promises that they take matters into their own hands. We see a new confusing practice instituted which might have kept a lesser man from following the LORD, and God is showing up in various forms all over this story. It seems like there are some important things happening.

Back to Abram and our adventures in Genesis. We get to see that Abram is not a perfect man, but he is one that builds his altars while he pitches his tents and God chooses to make a covenant with him and counts his faith as righteousness.

We've reached the end of the book of Job. od continues his challenging words to Job, but he does not end up bruised by God but simply humbled. God was not out for Job's blood but for his heart, and we get a happy ending to the story, but God would have been good even if he left Job in the ash heap after he was done speaking.

Job and his friends are finally silent and God speaks majestically out of a whirlwind. God does not answer Job's questions. Rather, God shows Job something that is more important than the answers to his questions. He shows him Himself.

We live in a world that seems angry all the time. Anger can be righteous, but too often it is self-righteous and poisonous. As Elihu finished his statements, he concludes in pretty much the same place that three "friends" did. And Job like a sheep before his shearers was silent.

Elihu begins his speeches and though he begins well, he is soon misunderstanding and accusing Job just as much as the other "friends." Have you ever felt misunderstood? Take heart because God knows you. Even in the midst of your struggle, God understands and may be using it to help you see the light of the glory of God in Christ.

Job reaches the end of his words. He recounts all of the evil that God has brought upon him and he systematically announces all of the sins he has not committed. We hear from this a high moral standard practiced by Job denouncing everything from slavery, adultery, and embezzlement.

Your days are numbered! Do you see that as a wonderful truth or a threat. That all depends on your relationship with the one who says it. Job recognizes that God has numbered his days but in his grief, he thinks that God is his enemy. His "friends" are no help to him. How do you help someone who is grieving and suffering?

Job continues in his arguing with his "friends." Job argues that God is not like a man that he might speak with him. He says that there is no arbiter that can lay his hand on us both. However, this is exactly what we place our hope in. Jesus is our arbiter with the Father.

We shift in our Chronological reading plan today to the book of Job. Job is probably the oldest book that we have in our Bible. Many scholars believe him to be a contemporary of Abraham. Job's story is one of suffering and it wrestles with the age-old question of the Problem of Evil. I hope you will listen carefully and engage with the story of this man beloved and stricken by God for his good and God's glory.

In this opening episode, we see the heights of Creation come crashing into the depths of the Fall of humanity into sin. This is the opening narration of the story which will be repeated throughout the Old Testament. That God had created everything good and perfect and man has corrupted that creation. However, even in the midst of this corruption, God is promising to put an end to the stain of sin and evil.
