The proposition was.......you take everything away from your guy, and we'll see how much he loves you.
The demonstration was.......Job loved God regardless of possessions, he gave everything he had and was prepared to give his life.
Quite so old chap,however the point I was making was that god made no motion to self defense and seemed not the least bothered by satans presence.God obviously had no problem playing the game instead of telling satan to sit on a cold pole.
Why wouild god who knows peoples hearts need to test the man Job to prove something to the devil?
