Job is my favorite book of the Bible. Though Job causes some people to doubt, for me the opposite is the case. In fact, Job planted the seed of faith in my heart before I became a Christian.
For those who doubt God because science supposedly explains all there is to know about the world, reading Job reminds us of how little we really understand.
Job was also very important to me during a critical time in my life when Satan attacked and tried to steal my spiritual identity. God revealed the demon Leviathan in Job, which was behind the torment, attempting to make me conform to another image besides my unique identity in Christ. Leviathan is not a physical creature as some pastors claim, but a spiritual entity.
Satan fools people by disguising himself as an angel of light. These days he often cloaks himself in "science," as postmodern people hold "scientists" in high regard. Questioning "science" is now as blasphemous as questioning the pope used to be in the Middle Ages.
The most pressing example is the COVID vaccine that has supposedly been developed in just a few months. Despite the questionable science behind creating a new vaccine that quickly, people who express concerns of this sort are labelled "science deniers." Obviously most people aren't interested in real science, then, but in the mere image of science that will permit them to return to their old idolatries.
One of my New Year's resolutions is to not take this alleged vaccine, which is really a thinly veiled demonic disguise for something much more sinister.
