Job's Ethos

Job had it all.  He was rich by every standard of s time and arguably our own.  He had children, land, servants and more.  Enter Satan.  Satan tells God Job is only his most faithful servant because God blesses him above all others.  Satan says if you stop treating him so well he will spurn you.
God then allows Satan to kill his family to rob him of his land and money and to cover Job in boils but he is not allowed to simply kill Job.
Job is the hero in his own story because Job still worships The Lord faithfully, he does cry out to The Lord for help, asks what he has done to deserve this pain and loss.
Job does the right thing because it's the right thing to do.  He neither seeks reward or attempts to avoid punishment.  He lost everything but his faith in God.
Doing the right thing IS it's own reward and living according to what is right is it's own salvation, it is Heaven on Earth.
To love all you meet, all those close to you as Jesus did is to build the Kingdom on Earth as it is in Heaven.
Peter once asked Jesus how many times must we forgive those who sin against us: "Then Peter came to Him and said, “'Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?'" Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven." (Matthew 18:21-22)
Jesus forgave all even those who beat and crucified Him.  One of the last statements He uttered was "Father, forgive them.  They know not what they do."
Jesus did the right thing in life, He lived it so as to provide us all with a template by which to pattern our own lives.  He did not do it to seek reward, He did not do it to avoid punishment; He willingly went to the cross.
He, as Job had done, did the right thing in His life because it is the right thing to do and that, for them both, was all the salvation in life they received. 
They received blessings but they also received harsh hardships and loss.
If we are commanded to Love God, and love our neighbors as ourselves, even our enemies, then we ought to do so not to seek reward or avoid punishment but because IF we are saved then limitless compassion and unconditional love naturally springs from a heart that has truly been saved.
This spirit of Christ, of the Kingdom dwells within us all and it's about daily life not merely one season during the year.
