The suffering of Job

The longing for a mediator Job 9:32-35

“Go to God when your need is desperate, when all your help is vain and what do you find? A door slammed in your face and the sound of bolting and double bolting on the inside. After that silence. You may as well turn away.”

The advocate in heaven Job 16:18-21

The prophets were “trying to find out the time and circumstances to which the Spirit of Christ in them was pointing when he predicted the sufferings of the Messiah and the glories that would follow 1 Peter 1:10-11

He that was high priest was not chosen…for his deep wisdom, but for the mercy and compassion that was in Him.

In all miseries and distresses you…have a friend to help and pity you even in heaven

…remembering the like in Himself once

The redeemer who lives Job 19:23-27
