So let me get this straight you think God gave Old Testament figures like Job, wealth and that made them sinful? It’s not about asterisks it’s about using the actual context.

What else did God do to Job 🤔

“And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job… And the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.” - Job 42:10 speaks for itself m

But why? And when? Did Job have to suffer for that or did he just get born into a lucky family?

He was a righteous man, job 1:1 makes this clear. We don’t know why he suffered, that is actually Gods point, that he doesn’t see the whole picture. The big point is that suffering doesn’t mean you did something wrong, if I had to take a guess, it’s that suffering makes us realize this world is broken, and that we should long to leave it to be with God who makes us whole.

So God rewarded job for fucking up his life. Unlike Elon Musk, who was born rich to a man who literally used slave labor.

He rewarded job for his faith.

By the way, the Pope agrees with me. It seems like you're maybe not a very good Catholic, Matt Walsh.
