    Israel believed that the Messiah that was to come would be a conquering Messiah. The sermon discribes the Messiah as the Suffering Servant who offers the hearers an informative tongue and helps the people by being the Suffering Servant.

    As you read this psalm, you see Jesus at Calvary: His cry to the Father; the period of darkness; the ridicule of the people; His thirst and pain; His pierced hands and feet; and the gambling for His clothes.

    Isaiah 59 paints us a picture of God's Redemption, and helps us with the answer to our suffering, which is trusting in this world for the answers.

    Sometimes in our walk of faith, we’re faced with questions which strike at the heart of God’s nature and his relationship with humanity. Our questions usually revolve around idea that God is loving, and all powerful, and yet we see so much suffering in the world. Isaiah 59 begins with this type of ...read more

    1 Peter talks a lot about Suffering. How should we act and react as Christians on this subject

    1 Peter 2:21-25 Matthew 5:38-48 Psalm 23 Our primary passage today is the one from 1 Peter, and I confess, none of us like what he has to say. I added the Matthew 5 passage, because sometimes it is easier to hear if we know it came directly from Jesus. Both passages are addressing the same ...read more

    God’s purposes are in no way thwarted by persecution, but rather, somewhat ironically, helped forward by the sufferers’ steadfastness.

    COMPLAINT AND RESTORATION. Jeremiah 15:15-21. This is one of the laments of Jeremiah. There is a complaint here (Jeremiah 15:15-18), and also a reply from the LORD (Jeremiah 15:19-21).
