Who
has Believed—Trusted in, Relied upon
And
Clung to –our Message
Of
that which was revealed to us?
And
to whom has the arm of the Lord been disclosed?
[John
12:38-41; Rom. 10:16.]
2
For [the Servant of God] grew up before Him
Like
a tender plant,
And
as a Root out of dry ground;
He
has no [royal, kingly pomp] form or comeliness
That
we should look at Him,
And
no beauty that we should desire Him.
3
He was Despised and Rejected and
FORSAKEN
BY MEN,
A
MAN OF SORROWS AND PAINS,
And
acquainted with Grief and Sickness;
And
as one from Whom men hid their faces
HE
WAS DESPISED,
And
we did not appreciate His worth
Or
have any Esteem for Him.
(Isaiah
53:1-3, AMP)
Except
for those whose names
Have
been written in the Lamb's Book of LIFE,
This
description remains true.
Only a
Few ever believe the Message of the Lord;
Only a
few are willing to receive His Message
And
walk in the Light of it;
Only a
Few love the Lord
With
all their heart, soul, mind and strength.
Today,
Christ Jesus is as Forsaken
As He
was when He first came;
Yet He
is the Creator of all that exists,
And
mankind is Hopeless, Helpless and Condemned
Without
Him.
