"Unjustly Condemned"




A Man Of Great Sorrows

Amazing prophecy of the Messiah, far before his birth that foretold all his sufferings and his plan for man kind to bear our weakness.

The Grand Designed Plan of our Creator Yahweh that was told many years before the Birth of Jesus.  Many believe that the Bible is only inspired by Men.  There can be no confidence of grand deceptions of this very thing, that foretold our suffering Savior Jesus Christ.  This is one of the most inspiring prophecies of Christ in the Bible that can not disprove he was the son of God.

Isaiah 53

Who has believed our message?  To whom has the Lord revealed his powerful arm?
My servant grew up in the Lord's presence like a tender green shoot,  like a root in dry ground.
There was nothing beautiful or majestic about his appearance, nothing to attract us to him.  He was despised and
rejected.  A man of great sorrows, acquainted with deepest grief.  We turned our backs on him and looked the other
way.  He was despised, and we did not care.

Yet is was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down.  And we thought his troubles were
a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins.  But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins.
He was beaten so we could be whole.  He was whipped so we could be healed.  All of us, like sheep have strayed away.

We have left God's path to follow our own.  Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all.  He was oppressed and treated
harshly, yet he never said a word.  He was led like a lamb to the slaughter.  And as a sheep is silent before the shearers.  He did not open his mouth.

Unjustly condemned, he was led away.  No one cared that he died without descendents, that his life was cut short in midstream.  But he was struck down for the rebellion of my people.  He had done no wrong and had never deceived
anyone.

He was buried like a criminal, he was put in a rich man's grave.  But is was the Lord's good plan to crush him and cause him greif.  Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants.  He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord's good plan will prosper in his hands.  When he sees all that is accomplished by his anguish, he will be satisfied.

And because of his experience, my righteous servant will make it possible for many to be counted righteous, for he will bear all their sins.  I will give him the honors of a victorious soldier because he exposed himself to death.  He was counted among the rebels.  He bore the sins of many and interceded for rebels.

This was a foreshadow of Christ to come and die for the sins of all and through it was written centuries before he came
how can any man deny that Jesus, Yeshua, Messiah was not the true living Son of God.  This illustration of his life to come is evidence of his true existence and why he came and why he died.  It was planned before he was ever known by man through the prophet Isaiah.  How magnificent this plan truly is and the proof that God is the God of all as Christ came to die for the sins of all, to all those that believe with a sincere heart.

Looking at Christ do we understand who he was?  Reading his full description, how can we magnify his example?  Are we being his example or playing games only to be accepted of men?  Looking at life and what blessings that truly come from this description, why is it that our eyes are so far from Christ?  Our traditions have blinded who he was and what he truly did and when he died in agony on the Cross it was finished to the letter.  Why do we want to send him back to that cross again?  Can't we just be real and come to the full understanding of what he did and his character.  There is no greater love than a man that lays his life down for his friends.

He wore a Crown of Thorns, he literally cried tears of Blood, he could have had his dynasty of millions on Earth but he rejected it all so that through his death we might live.

Brandee we truly never know what this lives journey will bring us to. I have been blessed beyond measure to find a relationship with Jesus when I did. It was amazing because I was taught about Jesus most of my life but never knew him.
