Job's friends were not much help either.  They tried to explain Job's troubles by saying Job must be a sinner, and God is punishing him.  Although they said a lot of things that were not true, one friend did say something true.  He said that if a lost soul admits that he has sinned and perverted what is right, then God will deliver that lost soul from going to hell, and let him see the light.

Job remained faithful to God, and God blessed him with wealth, health, and children once again.
