Consolation after Judgment

Send us Fan MailThe prophet Isaiah open the two sections of his prophecies with a prologue.       These prologues are found in chapter 1 verse 1 through 9 and chapter 40 verses 1  through 11. This message considers the contrasting messages and tone of the prophets words.The prologue to the first half of Isaiah's prophecy in chapter one brings forth the strict indictment of Yahweh God against his people for their flagrant, rebellious sins. These persistent sins led to God's hand of judgment which finally fell in the ravaging of Jerusalem, the temple, and the people by the Babylonian army. Yet when the 70 years of captivity in Babylon were completed, God extends great comfort and consolation to his people, assuring them of his never-failing covenant love and mercy. The basis of his forgiveness of their iniquity lay in the future at the cross of Calvary, where Judah's  sins were paid for and removed by Jesus' death and resurrection. Bible Insights with  Wayne ConradContact: 8441 Hunnicut Rd Dallas, Texas 75228email: Att.
