Commentary on the Book of Job part eighty three

                                    Job 30:1-31

No matter how good or evil any human may be within the regions of the dead, each one still retains a measure of faith that God has supplied to every living image of God that He put into every one of them. Romans 12:3. One day in the future, God will reactivate that faith still within their living images to worship Him in a great worship service as recorded in Revelation 5:11-14. Their living images will all freely choose to recognize Christ as the Lamb of God who has the power to rescue their living images from all of the regions of the dead. Christ will use His consuming fire to cleanse them of all sin and separate their totally evil deaths from them. I Corinthians 3:11-15. In Revelation 20:5, Christ will resurrect their cleansed living images from the dead for Him to recreate to live on His recreated earth. Revelation 21:1-5. Christ will cast their separated, totally evil deaths into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15.

God will completely cleanse and recreate all that He originally created, some by His grace and all others in a general resurrection in the end of the world. John 5:28-29; John 5:24; Revelation 22:11-12; Acts 24:15; Romans 11:36; Romans 8:18-23; Colossians 1:15-23; I Timothy 4:10; Matthew 3:11-12 and many other scriptures.

In Job 30:25-31, Job displayed confusion. He wondered why he had been made to suffer so much when he had tried to do good works and be faithful to the Lord. Satan caused his suffering, but the Lord allowed it. Why?

Satan has wagered that he can use evil, over which he has partially gained control, to so horribly cause the human race to suffer that that evil will eventually annul some of God's good images that God created and put into every person. Satan believes that if he can cause genocide, war, famine, slavery, and all other forms of horrible acts of inhumanity, then he can absolutely destroy and annul the good image of God in at least one person, causing God's Love to fail and man's faith that God put into man to also fail. Should Satan succeed in his evil plan, he would prove that God's Love is not Almighty, get an advantage over God that he can use to eventually find a way to murder Him, and invent his own evil universe. Satan revealed his plan for the human race in Job 2:9, and his plan for God in Matthew 4:1-11.
