Book Synopsis

DO YOU FIND IT DIFFICULT TO RECONCILE THAT THE SAME loving Father who sent his only son to die on the cross for our sins also describes himself as a “great lion” to Judah who will tear them to pieces?

What about the time he let Satan take Job's children and all of his earthly possessions, but yet the apostle John calls God “Love”?

Most people would agree that the God that is described in the New Testament is more palpable than a God who permissively brings judgment on others, the God often described in the Old Testament. In this quick read, Dr. Michael Brown takes a detailed look at the infamous story of Job to let God himself answer the question, “How can a God who allows sickness and disease and describes Himself as 'the one who causes disaster' be the same God who loves us?”
