LESSON TEXT Isaiah E5.1-1L GOLDEN TEXT-Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near.

Isa. E5.6. The Bible Is throughout a foTward looking book. No matter how dark the light. It looks forward to the dawn of a new and better day.

Whenever written, the prophet looks forward toward the end of the Babylonian eSlle. Isaiah died about 142 years before that event. That scene Is laid in Babylonia. Isaiah prophesied in Jerusalem. I.

The Invitation, (vv. 1-8) In order to understand the fullness and blessedness of this invitation, we should read in its connection chapters 53 and 54. In chapter 53 we have a prophecy and vision of the Messiah, making his atonement for sins, wounded for our transgressions. Again we have in this connection a picture of the Messiah as our leader and Savior. In chapter 55 we have the invitation and Joyous welcome to the beautiful city which he is establishing for us.

(1) Who Is Invited? The word Ho Is perhaps an abbreviation of the word Hold, used to excite attention. 'This invitation is extended to every one: (a) the thirsty, to those who are needy (b) the poor and the rich those without money, and the supply is abundant, even as the water. Every one is invited without limitation or distinction. The greatness of a mans spirit is measured by the numbers of his desires and thirsts, by their qualities and by his capacities or the intensity of his thirst. Those invited were to have wine, a luxury, and milk, a staple necessity, without money and without price.

The currency of the kingdom of Heaven is grace (v. 1). (2) Who Will Come? (v. 3). Only those who are listening and who are attentive.

Many fall of eternal life because they do not pay attention to the claims of religion. Come unto me, (Matt. We go to God for salvation and help, and we find life. Life is more than mere existence. It is the natural, harmonious, joyous activity of every part of our being.

The result of coming is, your soul shall live, and the surety of it is, an everlasting covenant. Literally, an agreement with promises which can never be broken, namely, the sure mercies of David. (See II Sam. 12 :29 I Cor. 17 Ps.

89 also Luke 20:41, 44). We are bought but we did not pay, the price. The mercies of David are the' antitype of our Savior the merej of grace. True satisfaction Is in its Fight order, (See w. 2, 3).

Christ is a faithful witness, the exalted one, (v, 5) to this covenant. (3) When to Ctfme (v. 6). While he may be found, and while he Is near, implying a time when he may not be found and a time when he will not be near. All of Gods promises are conditional.

(4) The Way to Come (v. 7). Forsake open sin, turn from unrighteous thought, turn to the Lord and receive his multiplied pardon. Man is everywhere depicted in the Scripture as wandering away from the true God and there is no salvation If we insist on continuing in sin. II.

The Transformation (w. 8-13). Gods promises have back of them all the power of the universe and are as certain as the process of the seasons. In working out his transformation in the character of man, we are to think his thoughts after him. We see and know only very little of this spirit, but God sees, knows and, controls the universe, which is at his command.

(I Cor. 10 -13 Phil. We are to enter Into his ways, and his ways are as the hefivens, higher than those of the earth Having entered into his ways we are to bring his fruits (see John 15), If the Divine seed (v. 11) is Implanted within us, then we may expect to see the fruits of the kingdom of God, which are born of the spirit (Gal. This transformation involves service, for we are to have a mission, go out to all the earth, be-in led by the Messiah and thus receive "joy and peace.

As sure as the rain cometh down and the snow fpom heaven and returneth not but wateretli the earth, so is the seed of tfie Word in the hands of the sower, to become bread to the eater. As we go forth we have his promise (v. 11) that, it shall not return void but shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper In the thing whereto I sent it. As a result the thorns (evil) shall be displaced by fig trees (good). Gods Word bears fruit In implanted lives.

CJohn 6 :33 James 1 :18 I Peter God calls this word, which is spoken of by the prophet, My i word. What the prophet says, God says. What an fnsplred man says, God Inspires him to say. Gods promise will be consummated in redeeming society, as well as redeeming creation (vv. Ch.
