It's God's power, not man's, and He can loan it out to whoever He likes.

Thank you for reminding us. Of course you're right but I think that wording the statement like that was more a slip of the tongue than the thought behind it.These are the things that Moses and Eliah did."

Seven_0 and I argue about a few interpretations, like rapture, but we both recognize God's power in all things. As far as a study in the Book of Job, I have to admit I have seldom gone into it. If you ever find you have extra time please let me know what you find to be the most important parts of Job as they relate to us today. In the mean time I'm going to begin reading it.

Thank you Enosh and God bless you too........Ping

As with Ecclesiastes and Revelation, studying the Book of Job is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped around a large gold brick*. But once you're done, you'll find is was worth the time and effort.

I find the overarching theme in all three, indeed, that of the entire Bible to be; Trust in God.
