Sermon Series: Christ’s Heart and the Christian Soul
Compassion: Point & Purpose
November 6, 2022 • Pastor Edward C. Lee • Isaiah 55:1–11
Sermon Title & Text: Compassion: Point & Purpose Isaiah 55:1-11 ESV Sermon Series: Christ’s Heart. Christian Soul. Message in a Sentence: • Post exile: 1 author (not 2 or 3) with 1 message: Salvation in Christ (The Messiah) • Isa 1-39 focus on judgement. Isa 40-66 focus on salvation (prophecy). We are guilty, Christ saves. • Isa 55 is in a long line of explanation of the promise of Christ (Messiah/The Lord). Read Isa 54 which both establishes future promise & clarifies blessing now {vv14-17}. • Remember, chapters & verses were added for memorization. So Isa 55, would be a continuation of the line of thought from Isa 40. Therefore 55 is continuation from thoughts of 54.
