Where in the bible exactly, did God command Lucifer to kill 10 people?

Story of job. He had to kill those 10 people god wasn't going to.

It's very simple, you claimed that God commanded Lucifer to kill 10 people.
All I want to see in your next post is the chapter and verse of where this takes place in the bible.

God's little bet with Satan at the expense of Job's family and servants.

And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand. Job 1:12a

So Satan went forth from the presence of the LORD. Job 1:12b

And there was a day when his sons and his daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house Job 1:13

And there came a messenger unto Job, and said, The oxen were plowing, and the asses feeding beside them: And the Sabeans fell upon them, and took them away; yea, they have slain the servants with the edge of the sword; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. Job 1:14-15

While he was yet speaking, there came also another, and said, Thy sons and thy daughters were eating and drinking wine in their eldest brother's house: And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee. Job 1:18-19

Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped. Job 1:20

And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. Job 1:21

God rewarded Job tenfold as is said, but his family was still gone.

If job only knew.. if only job knew the truth...

By "test" you mean "have his family killed by a goon". No sense in sterilizing the narrative. I guess it serves the thread title, but meh.

God didn't "have his family killed" he gave no special instructions to Satan other than to not touch Job, Satan killed his family.

We all will die, where we go after we die is what matters, and Job is back with his family, far richer than he ever was on earth.

Love is letting one be who they want to be, it doesn't force itself onto anyone, if she is happy in her beliefs then why do you need to interfere ?. If you feel like interfering, then you are the one with the problem, not her.

Right on que, the mob lawyer defense. :yawn:

Yeah, god called a mulligan on that one. Nevertheless, he still had his family wacked - excuse me- he still "tested" him. Who cares, are you aiming directly for the drain on this one? The thief gave it all back, so, you know..he's not thief - yadda yadda yadda.

"Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD."

"Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him;"

- Job

The bottom line is, a Child of God's mind is set on a prize that isn't earthly, we understand that this is just a temporary dwelling. If you were to live to be 100 Centillion years old it wouldn't even put a dent in eternity, so the 70 or so years you spend on this planet is worth nothing.

It's like you're a beggar clinging to a penny for dear life when God is essentially trying to take the penny and exchange it for a kingdom with unlimited wealth, all he wants is your trust.

Sadly you'll go on clinging to your little penny only to lose it in the end.
