Let’s Share the WordKey Texts: Isaiah 59; 60:1-2; 61.
Themes to Explore1. In the background of Isaiah is human tragedy: evil, sin, rebellion, and idolatry. The Messiah comes because
of this. 2. From our part there is no solution, no remedy that can be offered. The solution is all in His hands; He
brings the solution in Himself. 3. Isaiah presents God’s solution, that is in two acts: redemption and judgment - forgiveness and sentence.
Suggestions for Teaching and Spiritual Objectives:Study in depth and share the grand themes of forgiveness, salvation and the judgment as presented by Isaiah.
Possible Questions for Deeper Study, Sharing and Application: 1. In the light of Isaiah how would you define evil and sin together, with only one definition in a single
phrase? 2. The Messiah will bring with Him the total solution. What choices, decisions and actions can those who
need salvation carry out? 3. How are you living out the Lord’s solution? How have you made it your own? How have you been helped?4. How can you present this, God’s radical solution, to those around you in terms of hope and vision?
