“ Who can ever know what is in the Lord’s mind? Can anyone ever teach him?”( Isaiah 40:13) But we have the mind of Christ.

Does God ever treat people unfairly? Does the Mighty One make what is wrong appear to be right?

Who can ever understand the Spirit of the Lord? Who can ever give him advice?Did the Lord have to ask anyone to help him understand? Did he have to ask someone to teach him the right way? Who taught him what he knows? Who showed him how to understand?

We were also chosen to belong to him. God decided to choose us long ago in keeping with his plan. He works out everything to fit his plan and purpose.

“ Who can ever know what the Lord is thinking? Or who can ever give him advice?”( Isaiah 40:13)

But you are stubborn. In your heart you are not sorry for your sins. You are storing up anger against yourself. The day of God’s anger is coming. Then his way of judging fairly will be shown.

“ So listen to me, you men who have understanding. God would never do what is evil. The Mighty One would never do what is wrong.

Doesn’t the fact that we are wrong prove more clearly that God is right? Then what can we say? Can we say that God is not fair when he brings his anger down on us? As you can tell, I am just using human ways of thinking.

Who appointed him to rule over the earth? Who put him in charge of the whole world?If he really wanted to, he could hold back his spirit and breath.Then everyone would die together. They would return to the dust.“ Job, if you have understanding, listen to me. Pay attention to what I’m saying.Can someone who hates to be fair govern? Will you bring charges against the holy and mighty God?He says to kings,‘ You are worthless.’ He says to nobles,‘ You are evil.’He doesn’t favor princes. He treats rich people and poor people the same. His hands created all of them.They die suddenly in the middle of the night. God strikes them down, and they pass away. Even people who are mighty are removed, but not by human hands.“ His eyes see how people live. He watches every step they take.There is no deep shadow or total darkness where those who do what is evil can hide.God doesn’t need to bring charges against anyone. He knows they are guilty. So he doesn’t need to have them appear in his court to be judged.He destroys the mighty without asking them questions in court. Then he sets others up in their places.He knows what they do. So he crushes them during the night.He punishes them for the sins they commit. He does it where everyone can see them.That’s because they turned away from following him. They didn’t have respect for anything he does.They caused poor people to cry out to him. He heard the cries of those who were in need.But if he remains silent, who can judge him? If he turns his face away, who can see him? He rules over individual people and nations alike.He keeps those who are ungodly from ruling. He keeps them from laying traps for others.“ Someone might say to God,‘ I’m guilty of sinning, but I won’t do it anymore.Show me my sins that I’m not aware of. If I’ve done what is wrong, I won’t do it again.’But you refuse to turn away from your sins. So God won’t treat you the way you want to be treated. You must decide, Job. I can’t do it for you. So tell me what you know.

“ Would you dare to claim that I am not being fair? Would you judge me in order to make yourself seem right?

What should we say then? Is God unfair? Not at all!
