Today Mark begins teaching in the first chapter of Isaiah. The first word of this titanic of a book is "vision." Isaiah is seeing something that goes beyond the normal activity of seeing.
You and I are looking at the world around us, but seeing God's perspective on the world is a whole deeper level.
We're talking about the difference between looking and seeing.
The book of Isaiah is a revelation. This book is not an act of Isaiah's own self-discovery. This book is a vision. And it's built off of that.
So, when you are reading Isaiah, you're reading the revealed word of the living God as He understands the world and His promises to humanity. >>Watch on YouTube
