MIND SETTER: THE MESSIANIC KINGDOM

Discuss the feeling and consequences of


being in darkness.
•The grand book of Isaiah moves to a highpoint in its last chapters.
Throughout the book Isaiah decried Israel’s failure as the Lord’s people.
Her faithlessness and rebellion would ultimately lead to the captivity of the
northern tribes to Assyria (722 BC) and Judah to Babylon (605 BC).
•Yet, Israel was in no position to help herself. Her condition was too severe.
Only the Lord could save her. He would send His Servant, the Messiah,
who would die for the sins of the people and institute righteousness and
justice, not just for Israel, but for all the nations.
•He looks forward to the restoration of Israel, their
acceptance of Jesus as their Messiah, and even the
coming of the New Jerusalem that John also predicts
in the Revelation.

CHAPTER 63
Israel laments its helplessness and waits on the Lord

In these final chapters, Isaiah returns to the root problem of sin that has prevented Israel and all
the nations from living righteously.

But, through Jesus, the Suffering Messiah, the penalty and power of sin was broken. Therefore,
we are now free from sin and free to live right.

ROMANS 5:19
For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall
many be made righteous.

CHAPTER 64
Israel cries out to the Lord for salvation in the midst of their ruin
(PAGKASIRA)

 God wants us to be aware that there is nothing inherently good in mankind. Man is born in sin, and his
motives are selfish, even when good works are performed. The only “good” that is pure is the goodness of
God. When we are saved, His righteousness enters our lives. Then the good that we do is motivated by pure
motives. It is then not our righteousness, but His righteousness

heavens and earth.

• The Millennial Kingdom versus the Eternal State
 The Millennial Kingdom is a literal 1,000 year reign of Christ on earth where He
establishes peace and rules the nations with a rod of iron (Psa. 2; Rev. 20:1‐7).
 The Eternal State happens after the Great White Throne Judgment (Rev. 20) and is
characterized by a new heaven and earth.

• (vs. 23‐24) All mankind
Thy will bow before the Lord
while all His enemies will
