What keeps you going when life gets challenging? We look to Jesus' Glory and see our need to behold Him preeminently, attentively and assuredly.

The Church is built on a confessed faith, is guaranteed a certain future, and will prevail against a conquered foe.

There are two primary dangers threatening our faith: spiritual deception and spiritual dullness. Jesus calls us to heed his warnings and compels us to be on guard.

Our Lord is raised and exalted

Jesus Christ bore our sin, became our substitute, and brought our salvation.

Our suffering servant was rejected so that we might be accepted.

Isaiah 53 reminds of three things that are ultimately real: The Lord's success, the Lord's suffering, and the Lord's significance to bring hope to all believers who place their trust and faith in Him, cleansing us of our sins and making us pure.

Isaiah prophesied that a suffering servant would deliver mankind and bear the burden of sin, to atone for all iniquities and declare victory.

Faith is RECOGNIZING who Jesus is and RESPONDING to Him with the appropriate trust, surrender, obedience, and worship.

Only a pure and trusting faith in our Lord Jesus Christ will lead to true heart change and a renewed spirit. Rituals, worthless worship, and conformity to customs will serve to distract and derail our lives, hindering the restoration of our relationship with God. Only a pure heart, dedicated entirely to Christ, will lead us to glorify and worship our Savior.
