"The Father's Will for the Lost" - 2

 "And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day." (John 6:40 KJV) 

  "The LORD hath made bare his holy arm in the eyes of all the nations; and all the ends of the earth shall see the salvation of our God." (Isaiah 52:10 KJV)

 Not all the verses of the NLT are able to match what the KJV is able do; the interpretation made, makes it say a certain point of view, that is hard to say something towards another point of view. Basically, Isaiah had subject matter in many of his writings, he might not have even known what they meant himself, but God spoke them into his heart, and he faithfully wrote them down. 

 Believe it or not; isn't that what they say about questionable matters? Well, what if the questionable matter can be proven; doesn't that then make it no longer questionable? This world has that question totally wrong, because the only thing that is true in the world's view, is what suits the point of view that they want to believe; whatever makes them happy and does not condemn the lifestyle they pursue. 

 Let me tell you what I see, just in case you don't. My mom had told me, God will save the pigmies in the hidden places of the word, because they have not been given the Gospel Message; but I thought she was being simple minded, because I believed that God was able to reach everyone's heart. What we don't know, is what they might know, only because God makes everything known in the heart of man. Like most everyone else, those that hear from God directly, have the same opportunity that anyone else might have: they can choose to listen, refuse not to obey, or simply pretend they never heard from God at all. 

 I have no doubt that God is just and righteous; but this thing that Isaiah says, "hath made bare his holy arm." suggests that God has somehow rolled up His sleeve and shown the bareness of His holy arm; which, in my mind, it the perfect illustration of the bareness of Jesus hanging upon the cross. Not that it has got to be interpreted that way, but if it was shown to all the nations, I do believe that most every single person alive today, has in one form or another seen a Crucifix with the body of Jesus hanging on it; which is the Salvation of God being shown to the entire earth!

 Simple questionable subject to think about, much like Jesus telling Nicodemus, "And as Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, so that everyone who believes in him will have eternal life." (John 3:14-15 NLT) Did it really happen; there is no doubt that it did, because history records that it actually did. So that can be believed, because it can be proven! 

 Now, this is where the subject changes to the people: What do you do with what you have been shown...

"For God, who commanded the light to shine out of the darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." (2 Corinthians 4:6 KJV)
