Old Testament (143)
  1. By the mighty acts of the Lord God, the great I Am, we are set free and forgiven on account of Jesus’ shed blood and third day righteousness.
  2. It is well with our soul, because Christ has conquered the grave and brought hope and light to life through His resurrection.
  3. You find God where you least expect Him. You find Him in humility, in suffering, in a small thing, even a cross.
  4. The people of Isaiah’s day had rejected God and His presence in the Temple just as much as people live in contempt of God’s Word and sacraments today.
  5. This passage teaches us about the person and work of Christ not in false personification or in the Arian way but in the true biblical and Trinitarian way.
  6. The nations are not united in one single language again. Instead, they are being united in the common words and message of the Gospel.
  7. Through His death and resurrection Jesus will create a new community of mini-suffering servants founded on the righteousness that the Suffering Servant won for them.
  8. God could kill or make alive, or He could wound or heal. Mercifully and thankfully His choice was life.
  9. God puts Himself on trial in order to demonstrate to His people that He is their only qualified deliverer.
  10. The first Exodus for God’s people was from Egypt. The second Exodus is for the exiles in Isaiah. The greatest Exodus would be for all people with Jesus.
  11. The question is: Who is the watchman? By whose blood are we accounted for as righteous before God?
  12. Grace is God’s attitude towards sinners; not holding their sins against them but relenting from the Law’s just judgement and giving the undeserved Gospel instead.
