This link explains one man's interpretation of the Book of Job as it relates to human suffering. Do you agree with the conclusion Kushner has drawn? How would you argue differently?

Allow me to summarize the content, for I fear people are not reading the link.

It is presented that in the Book of Job, one can make three logical assumptions:

1) God is all-powerful.
2) God is all-loving and just.
3) Job is a good person.

We are challenged that as Job's suffering continues, we can no longer accept his suffering whie reconciling all three assumptions. For the suffering to be justified, we can only keep two and the third assumption is then made false. Which of the three would you resign?

As a Reincarnationist I see that Job chose the challenges he faced in order to strengthen his soul.

I do not agree and believe in men word, I believe int he world that was inspired by the Holy Spirit, you can feel the truth like a soft breeze that kisses your inner side and in your pours, no word of men has done this yet and I know never will.

So My Lord is all mighty and powerful.

God is the All-Powerful God. Job was clarifying the fact that God is all powerful, & good. Read the book of Job again for yourself.

If you are sincere about wanting forgiveness of you sin and humble your self and pray believing that God will forgive you He can and I believe that He will.

He knows the very intents of your heart. You can lie to and deceive me but you can't deceive Jesus Christ.

Any attempts to deceive man or Christ are sins. Do not be foolish and risk your own soul.
