How can a man be just with God

Bible Reading: Job 6-9 Job 9:2 I know it is so of a truth: but how should man be just with God? Job's friends had a theology that said if you do good God will bless you and if you do evil, God will destroy you. They reasoned that was the cause for Job's suffering. However, the Bible very clearly tells us this is not right. Job 1:22 In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly. Job realized that a mortal man could not be just with God. In other words, he knew that even a person who tries to live a righteous life is sinful at heart. He knew that he could not try and justify himself before God. Job 9:20 If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse. His own mouth would prove him to be perverse. Why? Because Job knew his heart and he knew that he was not 100% righteous. He knew that he was a sinful man. This is God's teaching from the Bible in it's entirety. Ecclesiastes 7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not. Job knew he was not just and he cried out for a daysman. Job 9:33 Neither is there any daysman betwixt us, that might lay his hand upon us both. Job wanted a daysman or a mediator between himself and God. He wanted someone who could lay his hand upon both him and God. He cried out for a mediator. Do you realize that Job was asking for exactly what we have? He was asking for Jesus! 1 Timothy 2:5-6 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6 Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time. Jesus is our Daysman. He is the mediator between us and the Father. He stands between sinful man and holy God and lays his hand upon us both. It is his life that paid the ransom for our sins. He is how a man can be just with God! Jesus is the only way that we can be righteous in God's sight. Do you know the Daysman? In Christ, Rody
