The story in children’s words
God spoke to Job out of a great storm. He showed Job two huge, strong creatures that no person could catch or tame. Job felt very small, and he said he was sorry in dust and ashes. God said Job's friends had not spoken what was right, so Job prayed for them. Then God gave Job twice as much as he had before, with new sons and daughters, and Job lived to see four families after him. Paul wrote that anyone who belongs to Christ is a new creation, and the old things have passed away. God made Jesus, who never sinned, to take our sin, so we could be made right with God. Jesus brings us back to God, and He makes us new.
