Isaiah 53

Martin Luther King Jr. and Oscar Romero were both great students who spent many years studying. After being mentored by Morehouse College President Benjamin E. Mays, King felt that God had called him to be a pastor but also fight for social justice. At a young age, Romero felt called to defend the poor and fight the injustices being done by the government. There is no doubt that Oscar Romero and Martin Luther King Jr. were incredible men that worked diligently towards equality and justice for…

sacrifice whereby the action of one satisfies the debt of another. The first one I chose was the teaching with pictures, stories, and emotional appeals that succeeds with at least some listeners. In Isaiah 53:5 it says, “He was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities…” Isaiah gives a vivid description…

This is the extent that man will go to refute truth. Our Lord is no more than Truth manifested into human form to deliver mankind from Satanic delusion. But instead of acceptance Isaiah 53:3 says, “He is despised and rejected of men, a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief, and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.” Men then may despise truth because they rather love falsehood, deception…

William Blake’s “The Lamb” paints a picture by using aspects of imagery of how “the Lamb” in the poem represents the Lamb of God, which is Jesus. Jesus is the son of God, who created everyone and everything. From the beginning of the poem, it is quite obvious there is a double meaning for “The Lamb”, that being the lamb’s physical attributes as a literal lamb and its spiritual meaning as Jesus. William Blake creates a sense of imagery by explaining to us the lamb’s nature, the nature of the…

clear the expectation of God from the people of God. At this point, the beliefs of Judaism and Christianity were almost identical. However, Christianity was based on the prophesy of Isaiah, who approximately 700 years before the arrival of Jesus, announced the arrival of the Messiah. The book of Isaiah, chapter 53 provides a clear description of everything Jesus went through during the crucifixion and how these experiences made it evident that Jesus is the messiah. This chapter describes God’s…

even the Lord Jesus Christ are people who were deemed as unattractive by society, but even so made a big impact on society itself, for the better. “He has no form or comeliness; and when we saw Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him” Isaiah 53:2, description on the unattractiveness of Jesus Christ. As of today, that same man is followed, adorned, and worshipped by 2.2 billion people in the world, surpassing the amount of followers the dear Kim Kardashian has on the world's largest…

The messiah that Israel is still expecting will have some tall orders to fulfill. It seems it will be next to impossible feat, to beat a peaceful person beyond recognition, while at the same time, knocking all of their bones out of joint and not breaking a single one. What a public relations “nightmare” this would pose in modern day Israel. Who will fulfill the written Messianic Prophesies in Israel? Who is it going to be? It seems no one will be able to accomplish this. It seems to be an…

The principle of nonretaliation for personal injury permeates the entire New Testament. It provides guidance when life brings us up against those who care nothing for us and are in fact opposed to all that we stand for. Ask that they might enjoy the blessings of God! Love inevitably desires the best for other people regardless of who they may be. The old nature says, “Curse them”; God says, “Ask me to bless them.” God’s will is that his children become a family where the joys of one become the…

power. He shows that he is called: to bring glad tidings to the poor, to proclaim liberty to captives and recovery of sight to the blind, and to let the oppressed go free. Lucius Nereprampil argues that this passage read by Jesus from the book of Isaiah brought out the clear consciousness of Jesus and his identity ‘of being anointed and sent to bring good news to the poor’. The good news is the arrival of this kingdom of God on earth. Nereprmpil goes on the state that “the actions of Jesus…
