ZOPHAR, JOB and METEOROLOGISTS

 

OH-AND-BY-THE-WAY THOUGHTS

September 11, 2023 

ZOPHAR SPEAKS (Job 11)

·        Thought: The doctrine of total depravity is probably not the best platform from which to counsel people who are grieving.

 JOB’S REPLY (Job 12)

·        Thought: God’s response to the would be “God-slayers” of Psalm Two

God makes nations great, and destroys them.

he enlarges nations, and disperses them.

He deprives the leaders of the earth of their reason;

he makes them wander in a trackless waste.

They grope in darkness with no light;

he makes them stagger like drunkards.

[Sound familiar?]

METEOROLOGISTS (Just sayin’)

·        Thought: (It’s hurricane season)

Meteorologists are like veteran sports casters. They can give a reasonable forecast of what the next play will look like (including spaghetti lines); but it all depends on where the atmospheric players are in place when the tropical depression makes its move.
