#841 The Wicked Live & Prosper

from MY GOSPEL @ Desmond R Singh · host Joe McCormick

(Job 21 and Psalm 73)Few themes in the Bible are as raw and unsettling as the apparent success of the wicked. Brother Singh delivers a cogent comparison of two Old Testament personalities, living with problems spoken by suffering saints in the 21st Century. Job cries without consolation in the ashes of devastation, Asaph on the brink of backsliding—these passages voice the same anguished question: Why do the godless flourish while the righteous waste away? Though separated in time and circumstance, the two accounts present mirror images of the modern-day problems faced by God's elect: Job 21 is the unfiltered scream of protest that refuses consolation. Asaph in Psalm 73 utters the same complaint that gradually transformed into a song of trust. The difference is found in understanding. "My foot almost slipped, until I entered God's house and heard Brother Singh preach. Then, I understood."
