Job 18

21 Surely such is the dwelling of an evil man;
    such is the place of one who does not know God.”

Job's words must have been really frustrating for Bildad.  I can't imagine no matter how I felt telling a friend in Job's situation 'here's how it is...you suck and you have earned your way into your situation'

I really don't know what to say, I'm just ready to get to God's response.

  1. ‘Oh no! So this is what happens to perverse people.
    This is how the God-ignorant end up!’”

    I have been reading this book in The Message, just because I understand it a little better.
    I love this ending line to the chapter...."the God-ignorant"
    I heard a sermon a couple of weeks ago about how we have educated ourselves out of a belief in God. He said, "I've never met a kid who didn't believe in God. Its just the adults that don't". I had to think about that a little bit, but I think he's right. I know this doesn't really have anything to do with the chapter...but those last couple of lines caught my eye.
