The Servant's Name

Isaiah 49:1-13 | The Gospel According to Isaiah | Trent Hunter It matters for every Christian if Christ truly is our salvation according to the Scriptures. If the Bible's story of salvation is not a unified story then Christ is not salvation for us. He's just another first century man laying claim to the role of messiah. This week brings us to the second of four "Servant Songs" at the heart of Isaiah's message. The first song dealt with the servant's mission. This song in Isaiah 49:1–13 deals with the servant's identity. This servant, "Israel," is both the nation and an individual who restores the nation and incorporates the nations into the people of God.
