Job 22

Summary: Friend speeches part 3.1: Eliphaz tells Job to stop thinking God can't see his sin. He warns that those who go against God in this way are like those caught up and washed away in a great flood. Finally, he tells Job that, if he'd only turn away from whatever sin there was, God would restore him to his status and wealth. 

Response: If there's one thing I feel God talking to me about this book, it's this: most of the time, you are not Job. You are the friends. You judge and mock and talk out of your ear and do more harm than good. Your advice is not as useful as your sympathy.
