Is God Unfair? (2)
Series: Disappointment with God
Donald Cantrell
Job 30: 19 – 21, 26 – 27
Job 30:19 KJV - He hath cast me into the mire, and I am become like dust and ashes.
Job 30:20 KJV - I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me not.
Job 30:21 KJV - Thou art become cruel to me: with thy strong hand thou opposest thyself against me.
Job 30:26 KJV - When I looked for good, then evil came unto me: and when I waited for light, there came darkness.
Job 30:27 KJV - My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.
Disappointment With God Series – Sermon 2
I – The Mistaken Ideology of God
“Mankind’s Logical Confusion”
II – The Mysterious Involvement of God
“Mankind’s Limited Comprehension”
III – The Maddening Indictment of God
“Mankind’s Livid Consternation”
This sermon has a fully alliterated outline, with sub-points.
As I talked with Nancy that day she said, “I pray to God every night and ask Him why He has been so unfair to me. Why did He leave me alive?"

Where is the JUSTICE of God when you end up with a stroke instead of dying in the process?
How am I supposed to answer that?

The first thing that happened was that his wife came down with a case of breast cancer. ...
