Themes:
1) Mankind is under indictment! We has been diagnosed with a terrible malady.
2) God is the moral authority in the universe! That's because He is . . .
I will continue to list our themes as we collect them, and please note, we will finish theme #2 once we take a look at Isaiah chapter 6. This will be our last week on this particular memory verse--so make an effort to get it down cold.
As preparation for next week, I want you to further consider the point of application that we made during our last session together:
Mankind’s problem (the indictment he is under) is fundamentally one of a failure in the area of worship. (rebellion, ignorance, disloyalty, arrogant autonomy) When worship breaks down, the symptoms are always the same: evil deeds, injustice and idolatry!
Do you think we are on the right track with this analysis? Do you think we are correctly extracting what God has preserved for us in the book of Isaiah? In order to answer these questions, turn ahead to Isaiah chapter 59 and spend some time reading through it. Two questions for you to consider:
1) Does it support what we have learned so far?
2) What topic have we not yet discussed that is contained in both chapters 59 and 1?
I hope this will help you get a feel for how certain themes persist throughout the book.
