“Isaiah Speaks to U.S.!” Selected Passages from Isaiah 5

A book I would highly recommend reading… It has been suggested that Isaiah was never voted one of the “Top Ten Popular Christian Leaders” of his day…

God used Isaiah to peel away the deceptive masks of Israel. Today God has chosen His Son’s Church to peel away the deceptive masks of America.

Purpose: to see how God wants to use His people to restore the United States of America

IThe Matter of Materialism A.Isaiah 5:8

Isaiah 5:8 “Woe to you who add house to house and join field to field till no space is left and you live alone in the land.”

MORE was never enough…

IThe Matter of Materialism A.Isaiah 5:8 B.Isaiah 5:9

Isaiah 5:9 “And the Lord Almighty has declared in my hearing: ‘Surely the great houses will become desolate, the fine mansions left without occupants.’”

There is a little “Material Girl” in each of us…

IIThe Propaganda of Pleasure A.Isaiah 5:11,12

Isaiah 5:11,12 “Woe to those who rise early in the morning that they may pursue strong drink; who stay up late in the evening that wine may inflame them! And their banquets are accompanied by lyre and harp, by tambourine and flute, and by wine; but they do not pay attention to the deeds of the Lord, nor do they consider the work of His hands.”

Implication is that there is no time because all of it is being used to pursue MORE pleasure…

IIThe Propaganda of Pleasure A.Isaiah 5:11,12 B.Isaiah 5:18

Isaiah 5:18 “Woe to those who drag iniquity with the cords of falsehood, and sin as if with cart ropes.”

The word used here can be used to describe a vicious, unrestrained dog, much like the dogs recently in the news…

IIThe Blunder of Boastfulness A.Isaiah 5:20

Isaiah 5:20 “Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil; who substitute darkness for light and light for darkness; who substitute bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter!”

IIThe Blunder of Boastfulness A.Isaiah 5:20 B.Isaiah 5:21

Isaiah 5:21 “Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes and clever in their own sight.”

Conclusion and Summary 1.RETURN to God (1:10) 2.REPENT or turn back to God (1:16) 3.RESTORE God as King and His righteousness as the standard by which to live (1:19)
