Reference: Isaiah Chapter 59
"Your Sins Have Hid His Face From You"
The sinner is the individual who remains in the blood of the first Adam. They have rejected the word of God. It is not because God has not sent His word, but because they have rejected the word.
Isaiah records.
Let's read.
Isaiah 59:1-2 "Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: [2] But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear."
The sinner simply refuses to hear that God has made a way for him to come out of the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 59:3-8 "For your hands are defiled with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, your tongue hath muttered perverseness. [4] None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity. [5] They hatch cockatrice' eggs, and weave the spider's web: he that eateth of their eggs dieth, and that which is crushed breaketh out into a viper. [6] Their webs shall not become garments, neither shall they cover themselves with their works: their works are works of iniquity, and the act of violence is in their hands. [7] Their feet run to evil, and they make haste to shed innocent blood: their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity; wasting and destruction are in their paths. [8] The way of peace they know not; and there is no judgment in their goings: they have made them crooked paths: whosoever goeth therein shall not know peace."
Sin is a result of remaining in the blood of the first Adam. There is no peace. Blinded by Satan, evil continually is the result.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 59:9-15 "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. [10] We grope for the wall like the blind, and we grope as if we had no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the night; we are in desolate places as dead men. [11] We roar all like bears, and mourn sore like doves: we look for judgment, but there is none; for salvation, but it is far off from us. [12] For our transgressions are multiplied before thee, and our sins testify against us: for our transgressions are with us; and as for our iniquities, we know them; [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. [14] And judgment is turned away backward, and justice standeth afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter. [15] Yea, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the LORD saw it, and it displeased him that there was no judgment."
The few who turn to the Lord and exit the blood of the first Adam into the blood of the second Adam are hated by the world. The Lord Jesus Christ says they shall hate you for my sake. They hated him because righteousness exposes sin, and sin exposed brings guilt and shame.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 59:16 "And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him."
His arm brought Salvation, Who is Jesus Christ, His Word, the new blood of God, the second Adam.
We continue our reading.
Isaiah 59:17-20 "For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. [18] According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. [19] So shall they fear the name of the LORD from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD shall lift up a standard against him. [20] And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the LORD."
The Savior comes to those who turn their light of faith out of the blood of Adam and place it in His blood. For those who refuse to turn on to their light of faith, does He repay according to their deeds.
We conclude our reading.
Isaiah 59:21 "As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the LORD; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed's seed, saith the LORD, from henceforth and for ever."
His Word is what sets the believer apart from the unbeliever. His word is called Jesus Christ. His word in the believer makes them seeds of God, seeds of the word of God, seeds of Christ. Heirs of God, co-heirs of Christ.
Let His Word remove you from the blood of the first Adam. BELIEVE and confess Jesus Christ, the Word of God, as we revealed Him from the first Adam. Salvation has come. Salvation is here in, Christ!
