Grace Community Church - Nashville

This section of Isaiah returns to the exposure of the sins of God’s people. Five “woes” reveal the grievance that the Lord has against them. But woven throughout are promises of his grace and the call to repent and to trust him. This is reality. We have sinned and we do sin. But where sin abounds, grace abounds all the more. As the specific grievances of the Lord are put before us, will we be willing to repent and trust in him?

Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God’s grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.

This week Justin & Scott discuss the value of seeing the city that is to come.

The city plays a prominent role in the Bible. It can represent human society living apart from God and in rebellion against him. This city will come to an end. But another city gives us a vision of our future with God. This is the city of salvation. It will last forever. Today we will consider what life is like in the city of the LORD and how we live in our city with a vision of that one.

A common misunderstanding about God is that he is Lord over only those who profess him to be, and that they are the only ones accountable to him. But Isaiah, and all the Bible, reveals that God is Lord of all; every person and all nations. He is the creator of all, all are accountable to him, and he will judge all. Regardless of which religion one identifies with, or whether one identifies with none, it is to the LORD God that each person will give account. The only way to rejoice at the judgment is to be united to the One who took our judgment upon himself. By faith in Jesus we will sing of the glory of the Righteous One.

Those who experience the grace of God in Christ sing the song of salvation. It’s a song of thanksgiving, trust, and assurance. This song makes known God’s name and deeds in all the earth. The song of salvation is sung by all the redeemed of the Lord and by the congregation together. Today, let us draw from the waters of salvation and find our joy in Christ.
