September 28, 2012 – Isaiah 55 and 56, Hebrews 10

Isaiah 55 and 56 speak of the fact that God’s covenant with Israel will now be extended to other nations. God’s grace is greater than anything we can conceive. His love is more expansive that our limited minds can comprehend. He can and does love the whole world. This is a hard concept for the people of Israel to accept. They forget that God’s promise to Abraham was that he would be the father of the multitudes and that his people would be a blessing to the world.

Jesus does not limit His love; all are welcome to come to Him.

 

Hebrews 10 continues to speak about the comparison between the old sacrifices and Christ’s sacrifice. The writer adds that the law is now written on our hearts and we need to encourage one another to remember it. We cheapen God’s forgiveness when we willfully remain sinful.
