Why is this "on man's terms"? Tell why this is the wrong way to approach God!?

Question

Job 34

31 "Suppose a man says to God,
'I am guilty but will offend no more.

32 Teach me what I cannot see;
if I have done wrong, I will not do so again.'

33 Should God then reward you on your terms,
when you refuse to repent?

Answer 1

31 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne [chastisement], I will not offend [any more]:

34:32 [That which] I see not teach thou me: if I have done iniquity, I will do no more.

34:33 [Should it be] according to thy mind? he will recompense it, whether thou refuse, or whether thou choose; and not I: therefore speak what thou knowest.

Wow, don't know which Bible version you use but I just gave it to you from the KJV

This is Elihu speaking, and I don't know why you copied just a small portion and asked the question you did....your question makes no sense according to this passage.

Answer 2

No, Torah accepts that slavery (closer to indentured servitude) replaced into part of the society. It set barriers and regulations on that and provided some protections for slaves/servants. That replaced into mandatory before we could pass directly to abolishing slavery altogether. Torah basically comes from an before point interior the technique. it relatively is strictly what you may desire to anticipate from 2700 twelve months previous texts.

Answer 3

The purpose of repentence is to learn for oneself what the transgression is and from what part of the individual it emanated.

In the case above, there is no regret, nothing internal changes except maybe for momentary fear. No repentence.

One cannot truly find God until one finds himself.

Answer 4

Read what it says before. What it means is that by not asking God to show them their iniquity and not being willing to change for God that it is their own fault. Should God reward them for refusing to change?

Answer 5

Because it is arrogant and non-repentave, and gives the man a position of superiority, asking God to correct him, not taking the resposibility to correct himself.

Answer 6

An analogy would be pimping over to godzilla, one hand on your hip and with the other hand offering him a doggy bone.
