Isaiah, Part 126 | More Than Extraordinary 13.09.2026 36минDr. James Tour centers on Isaiah 53:10 and the guilt offering: Jesus’s death satisfies the prophecy of the suffering servant who bears the guilt of many. He points to Jesus’s nonviolent response at His arrest, including healing the servant whose ear Peter cut off, and to Jesus’s own statement that He laid down His life willingly. Tour argues that because Jesus was the sinless Son of God, not an ordinary man, His sacrifice justifies many and fulfills the guilt offering. He closes with the need for daily worship and morning prayer to sustain that kind of self-giving service. SUPPORT OUR WORK […] -
