How would you feel if you found out that God made a bet with the devil on weather not you would stay faithful to Christ?
Would you be mad,sad,dissapointed, or honored that the King of kings has faith that you will stay faithful?
What are your feelings about God making a bet or wager on your life?

Have you ever read a Bible? This happened to Job and he proved himself to God. Good always prevails.Myself I would be honored to think I were important enough to be chosen ! I also
believe God would give me the strength to endure.

Wow. Great question, by the way. The way I have been living my life I am sure God wouldn't bet on me, or maybe he has and I haven't been living up to my half of the bargain. I guess overall I would be honored if he believed I would stay faithful.

I think God did something SIMILAR to JOB! Just to show US what The DEVIL IS capable of doing to us. Because WE gave THE DEVIL the Earth, in the Garden, WE are given to every WILES of the Devil, until we meet our Justice.

I would have to say I would feel honored that He thought enough about me to believe in the strength of my faith.

How incredibly Job!
I don't know. I think I would be honored that God trusts me enough to take that bet.

Strange, since He would already know the outcome. Not really a fair bet, but He does work in mysterious ways.

I'd do everything in my power to prove the Devil wrong and God right.

Are you talking about the Book of Job? If it were me I'd rejoice that God had such faith in me, even though I often don't have such faith in myself.

Well, I know i'd be in for a time of hardship, because that's how satan would try to tear me down. It would only help my faith in God to grow. because I turn to god in hard times.
