Words for Every True Christian
by
Jeramie Rinne

The book of Job is a challenging book for me as a modern reader. I especially wrestle with how to take Elihu’s speech near the end of the book. Remember Elihu? He’s the young guy who bites his tongue as Job and his three friends go back and forth from chapters 3-32. Once the older guys are done talking, Elihu unloads his thoughts in chapters 33-37.  Some of what he says is spot on, and at other times he seems to repeat the false argument of Job’s friends, who basically claimed “Job, you’re suffering because God is punishing you for your sins.”

Regardless of how one takes Elihu’s role in the book of Job, I do love this line from Elihu that describes the confession of one saved from his sins:

“He will look at men and say,
‘I have sinned and perverted what is right;
yet I did not get what I deserved.
He redeemed my soul
from going down to the Pit
And I will continue to see the light.’”
Job 33:27-28 (CSB)

These are words that every true Christian can confess. We have all sinned and perverted what is right. And yet:
We have not gotten what we deserved, because on the cross Jesus took the punishment we deserve.
We have been redeemed from going down to the Pit, because Jesus went down to the grave.
We continue to see the light, because Jesus rose again and he is our light and our life.

– Pastor Jeramie
