“How then can man be justified with God? Or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?”
Job 25:4 KJV
Bildad the Shuhite again held Job to account, though he asked a pertinent question, “How can a mere mortal presume to stand up to God? How can an ordinary person pretend to be guiltless?” For since the creation of the world God’s invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that all mankind is without excuse to know that God is the righteous and true God. No one can justify or be self righteous before holy God. However Bildad was accusing Job and hypocritically judging and condemning Job; for in passing judgment on another person, he was condemning himself, because those who judge from a position of arrogance or self-righteousness are habitually practicing the very same things which they denounce. That is why all humanity must thank God for He did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. For God made Jesus Christ Who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. Hallelujah!
