When Jesus and the writers of scripture spoke of "The Church", what did they mean? You might be surprised to see how far afield we have gone in our day from the meaning of the term in the days of Christ. Let's bring it back to its dynamic and powerful truth! The gates of hell don't stand a chance!

What would it look like if God eliminated all suffering and pain? Sounds great... maybe... But lets look to Job where the question really is not 'Why suffering?'. The question is more like 'Why do some suffer more than others?'. Then let's look to Jesus. Then let's look to the grace of God. Then let's look to our third hero. Then let's look at our own heart.

C. S. Lewis said "Since it is so likely that children will meet cruel enemies, let them at Least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage." As we approach the amazing book of Job, I present to you 3 heroes; 3 brave knights that can accompany you along any painful path... whether that path is right now, or in days to come.

God can deliver miraculously and physically, but more often His deliverance is eternal and Spiritual; accomplished at the cross of Christ. Are you OK with that? Is your faith and trust in God strong enough to trust Him even if He does not grant you what seems just and comfortable for you at the time? Is the will of God more desirable to you than your temporal deliverance?

God is totally and passionately willing to make us uncomfortable in order to build our faith. Such was the case for the exiles returning to Judah and Jerusalem. But alas, even the attention getter of judgment and exile has no remedy for a dead heart. The Messiah and His Kingdom were absent; and the returning exiles, minus idolatry, can still not keep covenant with God.

Assurance of salvation is about perseverance. This is a major theme in the New Testament. Who are the saved? The saved are those who persevere. But how does fainting intersect with persevering? We all faint at times. Does this mean I may or may not be saved?

Psalm 142 -- David has been anointed as the next king of Israel. Yet he is running for his life from King Saul. When the blessings of God lead through paths of difficulty and trouble, it can make one spiritually faint. How can we keep the spiritual blood flowing into our spiritual brain so we don't pass out? Feeling faint does not equal failure. God uses fainting to build humble faith and strength!
