80 ”Best of”: Uriah Job Frodo

Uriah, Job ... and Frodo. Part of being human is passing moral judgments. There are proper and improper ways of doing this. We look at the story of David and Uriah, and of Job. These stories tempt us to judge God, which requires us to take HIS position, His moral authority, His righteousness. We do this same thing in judgment of our fellow human beings. In doing so, we set ourselves up in our arrogance AS GOD, the very position of Satan himself, the pathology of Cain. This arrogation of God’s position becomes a central theme for us moving forward with the Christian Atheist. We exemplify it in Tolkien’s LORD OF THE RINGS in the character of Frodo as he interacts with Gandalf.
