Good morning,
I hope everyone has had a wonderful week
Well its great to be back up here
I have a short time remaining
Orders to Germany 18 MP BN
Super excited and nervous but I know God is with me
I am also headed to school here in a few weeks so please keep me and my family in your prayers
So if you haven’t noticed, I sort of have an obsession for Jesus
All of my Bible Studies I teach here at the church are focused on him
Usually the sermons I preach are about Him
My day to day is trying to live up to His standard and yes I realize thats impossible
My whole life revolves around this one figure
Jesus
So I thought being that it is my last few weeks here and Heather has given me the opportunity, that I would spend the last couple of weeks here on the one I love with all my heart.
Jesus.
You see I don’t just see Him as a character in the Bible.
I don’t see Him as someone I am supposed to obey
I see EVERYTHING!
I see my hope, I see life beyond the grave, I see an example on how I am to live, I see the only means of salvation and my only way to be made right with God!
You see i have noticed a growing trend and its growing at a rate thats I feel it may be impossible to stop
A trend called humanism or self worship
Churches and sermons in many churches now days are so focused on this life
So focused on being a success here and now
So determined to motivate people to become all that they can be
And that’s great but heres the problem
The Bible teaches that the opposite.
The Bible teaches we are but exiles in a foreign land, that our true home is in Heaven with God
The Bible teaches that our lives are like the myst that comes from a breath on a cold day
Then comes eternity.
The Bible teaches that you are special,
That God created you to worship Him and to bring Him glory and honor and praise.
Jesus said in John
The Bible says the exact opposite of what we are being taught in motivational preaching
Turn real quick to
The Bible teaches that because of sin we are all in need of a savior
that the only way to be made right with God is through this savior
That without this savior we are all done for
Eternally separated from God
Forever to spend eternity apart from the one that made us
And this eternity is not like the world describes it
basic logic tells us that if God is good then the opposite of God is bad
I mean thats basic logic right?
So then the question must be asked, how am I made right with God?
So turn with me to where we are going to learn about our savior, our Messiah, our soon to be King, High Priest, the Lamb of God, our Scape Goat, our Salvation, and our only Hope
So if you would take your Bibles out please and turn with me to the book of Isaiah Chapter 52 first off.
The section we are reading actually begins in 52:13 so we are going to start there and work our way down to the rest of the chapter.
Everyone there?
If you could, I want you to get into the practice of following along, its so important for your growth to follow along and begin to let the Scriptures come alive.
Ok here we go
Isaiah 52:13-
Context:
So this morning I want to give you a bit of context to help you understand the setting of this passage
The problem of sin
Sin is and always has been a major issue concerning the Bible
It something that we have downplayed and tend to ignore
I mean we even name our cities after the word
Yet the meaning of the word holds more significance than we think
In fact it means separation from God, hell, death and other synonyms that are synonomous with suffering.
So let me break it down for you
because this helps you understand your position before God
Like I said
I want to help you understand
Sin is what separates you from God
This happened way back in the Garden of Eden
Now here is where it gets interesting
You see Adam was supposed to represent all of mankind
So whatever he did it would affect all of us whether you like it or not
Those are the rules.
Well Adam sinned and therefore sin entered the world
What does this mean?
This means that because of Adams sin I am sinful as well
This means that I am enemies with God
So then along comes Jesus
A humble servant, a man that is capable of accomplishing in all areas that Adam failed.
Because of Him and His accomplishments, he is chosen by God to make atonement for us or to make it right.
And yet we are created for His glory
This is the story of a king who left his thrown to become a servant, suffered, and died so that his subjects could live.
You are His subject.
He loves you.
He became what you despise,
He became what we reject
He became what we hate
All so that in the midst of your rejection of Him, He could die for you.
THATS LOVE
Who is this Jesus?
He is the fulfillment of the most offensive and glorified prophecy in all of the Old Testament.
How do we know that Jesus accomplished what was written nearly 700 years before Him?
Lets look at the details of
You can see this portion as a sort of preamble to the rest of the prophecy
He is going to prosper
He is going to suffer and not just any type of suffering
Isaiahs prophecy tells us in verse 14 that he will hardly be seen as human
That he would be beaten beyond all recognition.
That he would be scarcely recognizable as a man.
Anyone in here watch Mel Gibson’s movie the passion.
Can you tell me if this one came true?
Exactly!!
3. Despite his appearance He is going to dominate.
Now keep these in mind as you reflect back on what you know about Jesus.
Lets move on to Chapter 53
