Morning Light - Isaiah 4

Today: [Isaiah 4] The Seven Churches in Isaiah. In chapter four of Isaiah the prophet shifts from pronouncing against the sins of the people to declaring the glories of Christ at the end of the age. He describes the church as seven women who in the latter days begin as being more wrapped up in personalities and denominationalism but who will ultimately find her identity in the Branch that will be glorious round about her. The prophet speaks of the church as the daughters of Zion cleansed of all filthiness comprising an assembly on mount Zion where the people find a refuge and protection from the rigors of the turbulence of history all around them.
