In this episode of Practical Advice from the Scriptures, we explore Job Chapter 21, where Job boldly confronts the notion that wickedness is always met with swift punishment. Through his reasoned argument, Job observes that many evildoers enjoy long, prosperous lives and openly reject God without immediate consequence (Job 21:7–34, KJV).

While traditional wisdom often equates suffering with sin and success with virtue, Job challenges this simplistic view, urging readers to recognize the complexity of justice and the limits of human understanding. We’ll examine the ancient lessons embedded in his discourse and highlight modern applications, such as maintaining integrity despite seeing injustice, avoiding assumptions based on material success, and nurturing faith with an eternal perspective.

This episode encourages honest questioning, thoughtful reflection, and trust in God’s ultimate justice, even when life appears unfair.
