    The Man Of Sorrows

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 16, 2018
     | 8,507 views

    Isaiah lived some seven hundred years prior to Jesus, and yet he revealed much about the significance of His life and death. Jesus fulfilled every prophecy regarding His first advent. I am thankful He came to provide the means of our salvation.

    The Man of Sorrows Isaiah 53: 4-6 As I consider the Bible as a whole, there are specific chapters that seem to stand out above the rest. I do not imply these are any more inspired, or needful than the rest, but they are of such rich substance that I feel inadequate to enter their eternal standing. ...read more

    The concept of hope as set forth in Isaiah 9:1-7 shows us that just as God dispelled the darkness at creation, so he will bring light into a world made dark by sin and unbelief.

    Advent is a time to celebrate both the past and the future, as we remember when Jesus. End times prophesy can be horrific, and the last thing we want to hear at during advent. But there is hope, and people need to hear it.

    Recently I have been fascinated listening to the testimonies of Jews who have come to know Jesus as their Savior. Isaiah 9:6 speaks of Jesus but the Jews claim that it is about Hezekiah. Is there a connection between Isaiah 9 and the New Testament?

    Don't Miss This Opportunity

    Contributed by Jon Lipka on Dec 8, 2013
     | 5,973 views

    Secular observance of the pre-Christmas season focuses primarily on the First Coming of Christ that occurred 2,000 years ago. As Christians, our focus is on preparation for the Second Coming, which in turn readies us to remember Christmas.

    Don’t miss this opportunity. Throughout the year, we get mailings from stores telling us of some special sale or event where they will save us tons of money on whatever it is that the stores tell us we need. It seems that quantity increases tenfold or more during the Christmas shopping time. ...read more
