Make Us a King. Part [12] 07/27/2024 (Morning thought)

Isaiah 59:14 And judgment is turned away backward, and justice stands afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter.

This format of governance, coupled together with the law of immunity will be in direct opposition to God, who, as we have formerly studied has given to all persons the freedom of choice to either do good or evil with commensurate consequences. Thus, when Revelation 13 is studied very closely, we will see a picture emerging, where one with kingly authority will take the stage, and from there on out it will be a steady, inevitable downward spiral just as it was in days of old when the elders and the people made that solemn request: “Make us a King”

The prophet Isaiah, in referring to the last days of earth’s history, says unequivocally that there would be a two-tiered system of justice employed, prior to the coming of The Son of Man and beyond all doubt we are already knee deep into that era. All of the highlighted words in the following verses are currently being fulfilled, even as we speak, and, by this we may know for sure that the end of all things cannot be in the distant future, but is rather at our doorsteps.

Isaiah 59: 4 None calleth for justice, nor any pleads for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. 8 The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goes therein shall not know peace. 9 Therefore is judgment far from us, neither doth justice overtake us: we wait for light, but behold obscurity; for brightness, but we walk in darkness.

Isaiah 59:13 In transgressing and lying against the Lord, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
