Job 4-7
Intro/Attention
We're studying the book of Job on Sunday mornings in a sermon series I've entitled, Pieces: the story of Job. Job 4:20 says that those who dwell in houses of clay ''are beaten to pieces.'' And by now, that's how Job felt. He had lost all of his material possessions, his children, his health, and now another crushing blow was headed his way. Eliphaz speaks in chapters 4-5. READ 4:1-11; 5:8-9, 17-18; Then, in chapters 6-7 Job answers. READ 6:1-2, 14; 7:7-10, 20-21

This young man said he wanted to learn everything he could about Bible translation, so the two men became close friends. One evening, Tyndale and Philips went out to have dinner at an inn down the street. As they reached the door of the inn, Philips stepped back and let Tyndale enter. As Tyndale stepped through the door, two men seized him - agents of the king of England. Only then did William realize his friend had betrayed him to his enemies. For 16 months Tyndale was imprisoned in the castle of Vilvorde, Belgium. During his imprisonment, he had conversations with his guard, the guard's daughter, and several others inside the castle, and all of them converted to faith in Jesus Christ. He was tried and condemned to death as a heretic. One October 6,1536, Tyndale was led to the place of execution. His last words, as he was tied to the stake, were, ''Lord! Open the king of England's eyes!'' Then he was str ...
