https://lesfeldickbiblestudy.com Through the Bible with Les Feldick LESSON 3 * PART 2 * BOOK 60 CHASTISEMENT BEFORE BLESSINGS - PART 2 ISAIAH 2:3 – 42:6 We’re not associated with anyone; we are totally dependent on the Lord, and the Lord Isaiah 6:1 "In the year that King Uzziah died (and of course history records that.) II Kings 15:6-7 I want you to see what was unique about King Uzziah. I should have had it, I Kings 22 verse 19. Isaiah chapter 6, but King Uzziah became a leper early in his reign and he reigned, if I’m not mistaken, forty-two years. Well, King Uzziah thought that as God had blessed him so abundantly he could go into the Temple and offer incense on the Altar of Incense. Now, you want to remember that there have been various times that human beings have seen God. Now, I know the Scripture says, "No man has seen God any time and lived." Isaiah saw God. Isaiah 6:1b "…I saw also the Lord (Now, that would be God the Son, of course, and he saw him.) upon a throne, high and lifted up, and his train filled the temple." Let’s go back to Joshua chapter 5. Joshua 5:13-15 15. And the captain of the Lord’s host said unto Joshua. (Now, this is God the Son speaking.) Loose thy shoe from off thy foot; for the place whereon thou standeth is holy. All right, let’s take another and go to Job chapter 42. Job 42:1-6 "Job answered the LORD, and said, 2. 4. Hear, I beseech thee, and I will speak; I will demand of thee, and declare thou unto me. All right, let’s look at one more in Ezekiel chapter 1. All right, verse 27. Ezekiel 1:27-2:1 Revelation chapter 1; drop in at verse 12. Revelation 1:12-16a Revelation 1:16b-17 All right, now, if you’ll come back with me to Isaiah chapter 6, we’ll move on. Isaiah 6:2 Isaiah 6:3-4 "One cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory. Now, this is Isaiah’s response) 5. I’ve made this statement on the program many times. Paul never refers to Christ as our "King." Paul never refers to Jesus as our King. But, rather, He’s the Head of the Body, which puts us in an intricate, intimate relationship with Christ like Israel never understood. All right, Ephesians chapter 1 and drop in at verse 19, so we pick up the flow of these verses of what Paul is talking about concerning the Lord Jesus Christ. Paul says, "We preach Christ (what?) crucified!" the power of God." All right, verse 20 again: Ephesians 1:20 "Which he wrought in Christ, when he raised him from dead, (That’s where the power of God was exemplified.) God the Father is. But, now, He’s at the Father’s right hand in the heavenlies. Ephesians 1:21 Ephesians 1:22 Not the King over the Church. The head without the body is not functional. The body without the head is non-functional. Well, He was God the Son! Colossians chapter 1 verse 14: Colossians 1:14 All right, now, here’s a description of who He is; the Son: Colossians 1:15-16 Now, verse 17: Colossians 1:17-19 18. And he is the (what?) head of the body, which is the church. I Corinthians chapter 12 emphasizes that Christ is the Head and we’re the Body and consequently we are in union with Him. All right, I Corinthians chapter 12 drop in at verse 12, and this is what we have to understand. Israel had the promises of a King and a Kingdom. I Corinthians 12:12a "For as the body is one, and has many members,…" Now, he’s using our physical body as an illustration. I Corinthians 12:12b "…and all the members of that one body, being many are one body: so also is Christ," (or the Body of Christ) How do we get into the Body of Christ? All right, here it is verse 13: A believer is immediately placed into this Body of Christ, which is composed of believers and Christ is the Head. 14. For the body is not one member but many." All right, now, there’s the comparison; where-as Isaiah sees God the Son, the King and He is indeed the coming King of Israel’s prophecy; but for us, we look for the Head of the Body, the Savior. All right, back to verse 5, he gets a glimpse of God the Son and it just devastates Isaiah. Isaiah 6:5 for I am undone; I am a man of unclean lips. I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips; for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts." The God of glory. It transformed the man, Isaiah. Isaiah 6:6-7 Now, that word should trigger your thinking right up again to Hebrews chapter 1. "God, (the Triune God) who at sundry times and in diverse manners spoke in times past to the fathers by the prophets. God has spoken. "(God) Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, and by whom also he made (or created) the worlds; (Now, here’s the verse that triggered my thinking.) 3. Who (God the Son and remember Paul only knows one Christ; Crucified, Buried, and risen. #LesFeldick #BibleStudy #Bible
