News. And Expectation. The Gospel.

 Isa 52:7-10

The Gospel is news.  The announcement of peace.  It has been done.  3 times in 3 lines: God has comforted, has redeemed, has laid bare His arm.  Your redemption was accomplished 2000 years ago on a Roman cross, in history as plain and clear as the newspapers print what happened yesterday.  But the next line of Isa 52 flips to the future.  All the ends of the earth WILL see God’s salvation.  It is still ahead for us to see our Savior.  The Spirit applies our redemption now, giving us the eyes of faith to see the light, to see Jesus in this bread and wine, shining with all the mercy and truth of God’s holiness and grace upon you.
