  • What If We Connected Across Generations? by Sean Finnegan

    Leviticus 19:32; Job 12:12; Proverbs 17:6; 20:29 The Bible holds a strong appreciation for the aged, resulting in honor and respect.

    Proverbs 5:18-19; Song of Solomon 2:8-13; Ecclesiastes 12:1-3 The Bible also recognizes the goodness of youth, including the delights of a newlywed couple and the vigor of young strength.
    Jeremiah 1:6-8 It’s tough to be young sometimes, especially when someone is inexperienced.

    Since older and younger people have so many different advantages, they can help each other in many godly ways.

    1 Samuel 3:4-11 Eli taught Samuel to hear from God, and when he did, he delivered a critical message to Eli.
    Ruth 1:16-17 Ruth committed herself to take care of Naomi, and Naomi’s advice landed Ruth a wonderful husband. Then, Ruth’s son brought Naomi great joy in her old age.
    2 Kings 2:9-10, 14 Commissioning Elisha to prophesy in his place gave Elijah a legacy while Elijah’s word enabled Elisha to have twice the portion of spirit Elijah had.
    Deuteronomy 1:38; 34:9 Moses groomed Joshua to take over and prepared the people for him. When the time came, Moses could die, knowing Joshua would lead them into the Promised Land.
    Luke 1:36, 39-45 Elizabeth encouraged Mary when she turned to her for support, and Mary’s arrival prompted great joy for Elizabeth (and her unborn child).
    1 Timothy 4:12; 1:18 Paul mentored Timothy and empowered him to carry on important work while Paul was in prison.
    Ephesians 4:15-16 We need each other for the body of Christ to work properly and grow into maturity.

  • Christ, the Suffering Servant (Isaiah Part 4) by Sean Finnegan

    Isaiah 53:1-3 What God plans to do is so upside-down, so paradoxical, who would ever believe it? What follows in the chapter is God’s supernatural wisdom (1 Cor 1:18-24). There was nothing extraordinary about Jesus’ appearance. Even so, he was despised and rejected (Mark 14:65; 15:9-15; John 19:15).

    Isaiah 53:4-6 Jesus died on our behalf, bearing our transgressions. He was the perfect mediator who stood in between God and humanity as our representative (1 Tim 2:3-6). However, his suffering for our sin does not mean we are free to live however we want (John 15:1-2, 6, 10).

    Three questions about Jesus as our substitute:

    1. How is it just for the perpetrators to go free while an innocent person suffers instead?
    2. If the debt is paid, then how can we say God forgave?
    3. If my sins are paid for, then why does it matter how I live?
    Isaiah 53:7-9 Though he suffered unjustly, he remained quiet (Mark 14:58-62; John 19:9-11; Mat 27:11-14). No one understood what was really happening except for him and God (1 Cor 2:6-8).
    Isaiah 53:10-12 Yahweh was pleased to crush him, not because He enjoyed the process, but because of the incalculable good that would result from this voluntary action. This is no case of divine child abuse but the horrifying result of our own sin meeting the wrath of a holy God, hungry for redemption not blood. Furthermore, it is essential to stress that this servant of Yahweh volunteered for this work.

  • Hezekiah and Deliverance from the Assyrians (Isaiah Part 3) by John Cortright

    Isaiah 36:1

    This was the 14thyear of the reign of Hezekiah. Isaiah was called in the year King Uzziah died (Isaiah 6:1). Isaiah’s ministry then spanned the time of four kings of Judah (Isaiah 1:1) and lasted at least 47 years.

    Uzziah 1 year (Isaiah 6:1)

    King Jotham 16 years (2Kings 15:32-33)
    King Ahaz16 years (2Kings 16:1-2)
    Hezekiah 14 years (or more) (Isaiah 36:1)
    ————————————
    A minimum of 47 years

    The geopolitical map of the world changed dramatically during this time in history. When Isaiah began his ministry,Assyria was not the dominating world power that it had become. The northern kingdom of Israel was still a sovereign nation with Samaria as its capital city. King Ahaz brought much evil to Judah(2Kings 16:2-4; 2Chronicles 28:16-25; Isaiah 7:1ff). Rather than trusting in Yahweh, he relied on the king of Assyria for help. This was his downfall. The Assyrian Empire rose to greatness during this time, defeating many nations including northern Israel and Syria. And now this mighty nation was about to defeat Judah as well. Under King Sennacherib,all the fortified cities were seized. The only thing remaining for the nation of Judah was the city of Jerusalem and King Hezekiah. All of the other fortified cities had been defeated.

    Isaiah 36:1ff King Sennacherib had sent Rabshakeh to speak to the leaders and people of Jerusalem in a propaganda campaign to weaken their resolve.
    Isaiah 37:1-7 Hezekiah tore his clothes and covered himself with sackcloth -a way of showing humility, penitence, and mourning.Isaiah’s first words to Hezekiah “Do not be afraid.”
    Isaiah 37:10-13 More of the message was sent to Hezekiah in a letter.
    Isaiah 37:14-20 Hezekiah took the letter and spread it out before Yahweh in the temple.
    Isaiah 37:21-35 Isaiah receives an answer from Yahweh to Hezekiah’s prayer.
    Isaiah 37:36-37 One angel of Yahweh defeated 185,000 Assyrians in one night! Total deliverance! Praise Yahweh!

  • Come, Let Us Reason Together (Isaiah Part 2) by Sean Finnegan

    Isaiah 1:1-4 As Isaiah drew closer to God, he became aware of sin, both his own and that of his people. He prophesied for decades while his country went through huge political and economic changes (e.g. Isaiah 1:7 to 2:7).

    Isaiah mentions many different types of sins, including:

    1. Greedy leaders (56:10-11)
    2. Violence (59:6-7)
    3. Hypocrisy (66:3)
    4. Rejecting God’s prophets (30:10-11)
    5. Refusing to trust God (30:1-2)
    6. Arrogance (3:9, 16)
    7. Drunkenness (28:7-8)
    8. Unclean speech (59:3, 13)
    9. Dismissing God (17:10; 57:11)
    10. Rebellion against God (22:12-13)
    11. Injustice (3:14-15)
    12. Idolatry (57:5-6)

    Isaiah 59:1-4, 7-11, 14-15 This description pulls together many threads of the people’s sin into a striking tapestry.

    Isaiah 1:11-15 Even amid all this sinning, the people continued with their religious duties.

    Isaiah 1:16-20 God appeals to His people to come and reason together. He yearns to show them favor (30:18) and to cleanse them.
