SCRIPTURE

"He putteth my feet in the stocks, He marketh all my paths. Behold, I will answer thee, in this thou art not just; For God is greater than man." — Job 33:11-12 (ASV)

He puts my feet in the stocks, he marks all my paths.

Behold, in this you are not just: I will answer you, that God is greater than man.

Here is the core of the whole matter. Whenever you and I begin to impugn the justice of God, we ought to remember who we are, and what he is. There is no comparison between us and the great God over all, blessed for ever; and for us to begin to charge him with injustice, or unkindness, is a desperately wicked action, of that we may be quite sure at the very outset.
