Good News Math

Isaiah 53:1-12
Savior + Lord + Christ = Jesus (God Saves)

(v1)
Salvation is an unbelievable message seems to be something only a fool would believe. But that was all by God's design (1 Corinthians 1:27)

(v2)
There was nothing about His physical appearance that screamed King, Priest, or God. But God does not care about the outward appearance only the heart ( 1 Samuel 16:7)

(v3)
He was a no popular, in fact in His darkest hour His friends betrayed Him and denied Him (Matthew 26:47-50, 69-75)

(v4)
He died for the us even though we mocked mocked Him, just like those at the cross ( Matthew 27:27-44)

(v5)
He died for our sins (1 Corinthians 15:3) and brought us peace with God (Romans 5:1). And because of the sacrifice we in grace and forgiveness (Ephesians 1:7)

(V6)
We all have sinned and are in need of Jesus (Romans 3:23). But that is why God sent Him to die for us (John 3:16). He was Chosen, He is the Christ (Matthew 16:13-20)

(v7)
When He was walking towards the cross He was mocked, ridiculed, and flogged. But He did not care He only cared about doing the Lord's Will (Matthew 27:11-14, 27-44)

(v8 - v10)
It was the Lord's Will for Him to die for us. It was God's Will for Him to Suffer. It was and has always been God's Will (John 3:16)

(v11)
The story does not end HERE, His death was just the beginning and not the end. He rose again, changed forever. He died a Savior but arose the Lord of all (Matthew 28:1-10, Acts 10:34-36). It is though our Lord that we are declared right with God (Romans 5:1-11)

(v12)
And now to Him we all bow (Philippians 2:9-11). He is our LOVE, our JOY, He is our GOD!
Stay focused, you can do this!

"In His JOY!"
