Job 33:4

Baptist
SCRIPTURE

"The Spirit of God hath made me, And the breath of the Almighty giveth me life." — Job 33:4 (ASV)

That is to say, "I am as much the creature of God as these three old gentlemen are, these three wise friends who have spoken so tartly. I am as much endowed with the Spirit of God as you are, O Job, and therefore I speak to you in his name." Should not this be a lesson to every one of us to try and do all that we can for God?

Every Christian may say, "'The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.' Therefore let me use my very existence, the life that is breathed into me, for that Almighty Creator who has made me what I am."
