- People often believe good deeds bring rewards, while bad deeds bring punishment.
- This mindset can lead to bargaining with God and using Him for personal gain.
Prosperity of the Wicked
- Job observes that wicked people often prosper, seemingly contradicting the idea that good deeds bring rewards.
- Prosperity isn't a reliable indicator of a person's heart or relationship with God.
