The Heavens Are Not Clean

In Job 15:15-16 Job's friend Eliphaz asks a great question. "Behold, God puts no trust in His holy ones [the angels]. Indeed, the heavens are not clean in His sight. How much less that which is abominable and corrupt, a man who drinks iniquity like water?"

Eliphaz is asking the same question we often do. What is man that God is mindful of us? If the very heavens are unlean and the angles are not trustworthy how can God wish to fellowship with us?

Here are three answers.

His Grace. His Mercy. His Love.

None of them have anything to do with who we are, only who He is. He is amazing and wonderful.
