Bible Lab S2 Ep.21 God's Sovereignty and Powerful Redemption (Job 25 - Psalm 5)

Picking up from last week, we ended in the middle of the cycle of arguments between Job and his friends. In the middle of the book, Job 28, is an amazing poem about the source of wisdom. Where does wisdom come from? In short, wisdom is not gained through immediate answers or solutions. But rather, wisdom is gained from the reverence of the Holy Spirit and His guidance alone. God's appearance points to his sovereignty, his power, and gives us a simple point: He is God, and we are not. 

In this episode, Ryan and Joel discuss the second half of Job, explore the dynamic between Elihu's wisdom and ignorance, and God's divine appearance at the end of the story. Make sure to check our past messages and episodes on Job:
