Description
Yves-Yannick Ford was born in 1969 to a Swiss mother and a British father. He was brought up in Buckinghamshire, UK. As a young man during his undergraduate studies, he found true peace and assurance of God’s salvation through reading and re-reading the Epistle to the Romans in the New Testament. He is keen for others to read the Bible and experience for themselves its life-changing power. Yannick now lives in Kent, UK, where he works as a scientist. He is married to Rachel and has two sons and two daughters.
One of the purposes of this book is to show that, throughout the Bible, there is one message of salvation, and how we can enter into a relationship of peace and joy with God through the work of the Lord Jesus Christ.
A second objective is to show how the lessons that Job learned can teach us not to rely on ourselves, but to trust in the Lord Jesus who has not only forgiven our sins, but has also dealt with our sinful nature and gives us the power to live a life that is pleasing to Him.
The author takes up that points made by Job and his friends in their long series of speeches, and shows how these can be understood in the light of the Bible as a whole.
