Why Satan Demands a "Skin for Skin" Faith - John Greene

About this sermon

The Book of Job brings us face-to-face with the difficult truth of God's absolute sovereignty over both the good and the evil we experience. When severe adversity strikes, it is natural to ask "why?" Instead, this sermon challenges us to ask how we can use our suffering to bring God glory. We also look at Satan's role as a legalistic "prosecuting attorney" who operates on a transactional "skin for skin" worldview, using painful trials as a sting operation to tempt believers to curse God. → View on I'll Be Honest: https://illbehonest.com/why-satan-demands-a-skin-for-skin-faith 00:00 Opening Prayer 00:36 Satan Returns to the Heavenly Convocation 01:44 Job's Terrible Affliction 02:23 The Counsel of Job's Wife 04:39 Defining the Meaning of "Integrity" 07:51 Job's Response: Receiving Adversity from God 12:27 The Arrival of the Three Friends 14:45 Observation 1: God's Absolute Sovereignty Over Evil 21:36 Observation 2: Suffering "Without a Cause" 25:31 Stop Asking "Why?" and Start Asking "How?" 27:30 Satan the Legalist 33:16 Skin for Skin: Satan's Sting Operation 37:13 Is It Just for God to Cause Suffering? 38:40 Job as a Type of Christ (Psalm 69 & John 15) 44:15 Justified Freely by Grace (Romans 3) 47:18 Connecting Sovereign Suffering to Sovereign Grace 50:08 A Gospel Invitation to the Unbeliever 51:50 Closing Prayer Follow I'll Be Honest on: 📢 WhatsApp - https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Va9XSeR1SWsuk1Km6O1G 🐦 X (Twitter) - https://twitter.com/illbehonest 📘 Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/illbehonest/ 📷 Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/illbehonestwillyou/ 🎵 Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/0XLYu0mGs7jAsd0ErmwiFO 🌐 Website - https://illbehonest.com/ 🍏 Apple App - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/ill-be-honest/id673403710?mt=8&uo=4 🤖 Android App - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.subsplash.thechurchapp.honest&pli=1
