In the biblical days, there was not a man who was greater than Job. Job was a very wealthy man with seven sons and three daughters, he possessed more than anyone in the land of Uz. Job was a man of God who lived a blessed life, protected under God's divine power. In the heavenly realm beyond the scope of Job's understanding, there were conversations between God and Satan. While God maintained great confidence in Job's ability to stay true to the faith, He continued to allow Satan access to destroy the blessings which God had given him. God's instruction to Satan was that he was allowed to do adverse things to Job, but he was not allowed to take his life. Job meanwhile was enjoying the good life, unaware of Satan's plans to destroy him. At once tragedy struck Job's life from all directions, causing him to lose his children and his wealth in a short period of time. While grieving over the loss of his loved ones and dealing with the realization that he was now destitute, Job's health rapidly declined to a point of turning him into an emaciated relic of his former self. While Job was suffering due to undue duress from all of the calamites of his present world, he could no longer feel the presence of God. In the twenty-third chapter of the book of Job, we find that the main character is very distraught over the absence of God in his time of trouble. Job said; "If only I knew where I could find God! I would go where he lives." Job begins to wonder if he will ever find God again. Job said that he could not find God in the north, south east or west. Several of Job's friends came to visit him, but would become a snare and a stumbling block in his life by their accusatory words against Job and the sovereignty of God. These three men sat beside Job in his time of distress without offering any words of encouragement. A young friend of Job listened intently over a period of days until finally he began to speak out against their ignorance about God's sovereignty and love of God toward His people. Elihu, brings a very different perspective into the discussion which changed Job's attitude toward God. The Gospel According to Elihu is a look into how we sometimes view God from a very dim self-righteous vantage point rather than from God's sovereign position. In this book, we will discover that because of God's supernatural advantage, He sees all and knows all even when our eyes are blinded by the disguise of the earthly realm. This book teaches us to trust God while we are going through tough times because behind the Curtin blanketing our vison, God is orchestrating it all. If ever you have questioned God in any aspect of your life, this book is a must read to help you understand His undying love and commitment to the preservation of His saints. Elihu's message to saints today is so needed because it is truly "good news," for daily living. It is good news for our peace of mind and comfort during loss. It is a compass during feelings of hopelessness and a guide to steer us back on course and to do so while believing in God's sovereign power. The Gospel or "good news," is that God does not lie and He have said that He will never leave us nor forsake us. It is not God who brings about destruction in the lives of saints. When trouble comes, God have already given us the written word to combat any and all things naturally or supernaturally. Yes, there is good news and the good news is the gospel according to Elihu.
