*It twists free will against us.* It does that...does it? Free will does not exist either.....out come the unicorns. I have a few of my own that I will share. Love this stuff. *I don’t see it as God betraying anyone*. God literally betrays Job. Not a good look here for God. We, you and I, can hold each other to account when we use subjectivity to excuse away an obvious fact. Otherwise, the Bible will become completely subjective...yes? We don't need to make excuse for God....let him speak for himself on this subject. That would be good....more than good....extremely good. *God proved the devil wrong through Job’s life, and we get to learn the lesson without living through the worst of it. The key takeaway for me is: don’t break when even small misfortunes hit and stay faithful*. Not sure about your take on this, but it does have merit. However, *we don't get to learn that lesson without living through the worst of it.* Job is an archetypic, near heroic figure, yet also a literally predictive cautionary tale....and some of us have lived through the worst of it. Don't break...small misfortunes....or large. Stay faithful to what lives inside you...it will save you. Maranatha Sonatime😇

I thought you were going to share some of your stories, so that’s why I stayed in radio silence here:) It often takes several comments or layers for me to fully understand where you might be coming from regarding the Bible. I do my best to follow along. I can easily discuss the actual text, but I would rather address your takes and the non-biblical filters or experiences that have shaped your opinions/conclusions. Anytime you feel like laying all your cards on the table, I’m all ears:) No pressure, it’s just my preference so we can move the conversation forward.
