Q

Importance & Distinctives of Isaiah

A

•Greatness: “To the Jews, Isaiah was the greatest of the prophets.”♦•Literary Merit: Isaiah was perhaps the greatest writer who ever lived. His skills and eloquence surpass Shakespeare, Milton, and Homer. ♦•It is the 3rd longest book of the Bible, surpassed only by Jeremiah and Psalms.♦•It is called the Messianic prophet, the 5th Gospel, and the Evangelical prophet. Only the Psalms have more verses about Christ. Jesus said Isaiah saw His glory and spoke of Him.♦•For years, skeptics had claimed that the Biblical text of the Old Testament had been greatly corrupted as copies of copies of copies had been made down through the centuries. Liberal professors taught what we could no longer be sure of the original text.♦•With this great manuscript find (the Dead Sea Scrolls), we had the perfect test tube experiment to prove or disprove the accuracy of the Jewish copying process. Had the text changed over the course of 1000 years - a full millennium of being copied and recopied by hand? The astounding answer is NO. Thanks to the biblical sovereign preservation of God, the Biblical text and the Bible you hold in your hand is the same as when it was first inspired by God! “…The Word of our God shall stand forever.” (Isa 40:8)

•Polytheism - There is only ONE God!♦•Pantheism - This God is Personal, Intelligent, and Distinct from His Creation. There is a God and we are not Him!♦•Mormonism and Word Faithism - We cannot become gods and we are not “little gods”.♦•Jehovah Witness’s view that Jesus was an angel who became a god.♦•Armstrongism - We cannot join the God head.♦•Universalism - All men will not be saved. There is only One God and there is only One Savior.♦•Liberalism and Cultism - Since the “LORD” Jehovah declares, “beside Me there is no Savior, then every verse calling Jesus the Savior is an inspired proof that Jesus is Jehovah God!

Q

Isaiah 28:9-13 implications:

A

•In the great chapters of the Blessings or Cursings (Deut 28-29), Israel was warned that one of the cursings for disobedience to the Covenant was to be spoken to in another “tongue” (Deut 28:49) - the language of a nation that would carry them away into Captivity. If they rejected their Sovereign King and God of the (old) Covenant, they would be spoken to in other tongues and carried into Captivity.♦•Isaiah and Jeremiah both spoke of this warning before the Assyrian and Babylonian captivities (Isa 33:19; Jer 5:15). Thus to the Jews, it was a sign of judgment by Captivity to be spoken of in another tongue/language.♦•In 1 Corinthians 14:21-22, Paul quotes from this very passage (Isa 28:11-12) to explain the purpose of the New Testament give of tongues. Tongues were a warning sign of judgment to Israel for rejecting their Messiah King and God of the (New) Covenant - Jesus. If they did not repent, they would be carried into Captivity by a fierce nation pictured by an “eagle” (Deut 28:49). The eagle was the symbol of Rome which carried Israel into Captivity in AD 70 - a captivity that lasted almost 2,000 years.♦•This passage in Isaiah (28:9-10) also instructs us concerning the proper way to teach our children God’s Word. From their infancy, we are to give them simple “line upon line…precept upon precept” teachings which build one upon another.

Q

Isaiah 53: The Rejection of the Savior

A

•He was despised (counted as nothing) because of His lowly background.♦•He was rejected because of His message.♦•He was a man of Sorrows and acquainted with grief because of His earthly mission.♦•These verses answer the greatest questions raised in the mind of the Jew when confronted with the question of Christ. How could Jesus be the Jewish Messiah if He was rejected by the Jewish people, and how could an ordinary man have been the Messiah? ♦•The answer is that the Jewish Scriptures written by the greatest Jewish prophet predicted that the Jewish Messiah would be rejected by the Jewish people because He would appear to be just an ordinary man!

Isaiah 53:4-6 - The Messiah to Suffer for our Sins

A

•The key word in verse 4 is “Our”. Here we have the Substitutionary Atonement and Sacrifice of Christ described clearly in the Old Testament. Jesus died for our Sins. ♦•The last part of verse 4 informs us that the nation of Israel in general would look upon the cross as a righteous sentence imposed by God Himself upon a blasphemer named Jesus of Nazareth!♦•Verse 5 tells us this was done “for our transgression…for our iniquities…the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.”♦•The 2nd half of verse 6 declares that all of the guilt of ALL men was laid upon Christ. Christ died for all men. He took our Hell that we might partake of His Heaven.

Background of Zephaniah

A

The Northern Kingdom of Israel had already fallen to Assyria by the time of Zephaniah. In the south, the 55 evil years under wicked kings Manasseh and Amon had a profound effect upon Judah, from which it never fully recovered. Zephaniah’s prophecies helped bring about a temporary revival in 621 BC under King Josiah, but it was far too little and far too late! After Josiah’s death the people quickly turned back to their sin.

How could God allow the sins of Israel go unpunished? God then tells him Judah would indeed be punished by the Babylonians. How, then, he asks, could God justify allowing a godless nation to punish Judah, which at least believed in God and had some good men left?♦•Habakkuk looks around at the sin of his nation and the cruelty of wicked oppressors and asks the age old question “Why does God allow the righteous to suffer and sinners to prosper?” God answers these questions with His Justice, his Timing, and His Glory.

Q

Habakkuk’s Main Questions to God - Why does God allow suffering and injustice?

A

1) God has chosen to judge wicked men at the hand of wicked men. ♦2) God can use the Wicked: Habakkuk’s Faith in the Everlasting God. Habakkuk first proclaims his faith in the everlasting covenant of his Everlasting God, declaring that Israel will not be annihilated, but that Babylon is merely God’s tool to discipline, not destroy Israel for her sin. ♦3) Habakkuk anticipates and receives God’s answer: God will judge the wicked and correct all injustices according to His “appointed time”. The man of God is told to…“…Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time…though it tarry, wait for it: because it will surely come…“♦ ♦”For Habakkuk, the message was clear. Stop complaining! Stop doubting! God is not indifferent to sin! He is not insensitive to suffering. …He is in control. IN His perfect time Yahweh will accomplish His divine purpose.”♦ ♦For us, the message is just as clear. There is a time to silence our questions and trust our God!

The Joy of Habakkuk

A

This is certainly one of the greater passages of hope in the entire Bible!♦ ♦As was the case with Job, once we truly see God in His Glory, all of our questions are replaced with total trust in His power, His wisdom, and His love!

The other is Obadiah which describes the destruction of Edom.♦♦Nahum is a classic example of the Justice of God and of a fulfillment of Genesis 15:16, “For the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.” The terrible sin of Nineveh at the time of Jonah had returned and was now terminal!

Nahum 2:6,8 predict that Nineveh will be destroyed by a “flood” when the “gates of the rivers” are opened and that the one hundred foot stone walls and massive stone palace will literally “dissolve”!

A

♦Deserters fled to the Babylonian army and informed them of the celebration within the walls.♦♦The locks and gates to an already flooded reservoir which was now overflowing from the massive rainstorm, were suddenly opened, sending a gigantic wall of water down the bed of the Tigris River, which flowed under the walls of Nineveh.♦♦The walls then collapsed as the sun dried brick literally dissolved (just like God said!).

Q

Main Content of Jeremiah

A

•The Message of Jeremiah was a message of Judgment at Judah’s final hour. Jeremiah is the “Weeping Prophet with a Wrathful Message”. He was the prophet to Judah’s terminal generation, “the generation of His [God’s] wrath.” (Jer 7:29)♦•Because of Judah’s gross sin, God was sending Babylon to conquer Judah and carry them into Captivity. Judah was to repent and submit to God’s judgement by unconditional surrender. Needless to say, Jeremiah’s message was not popular!♦•A note of application is important here: Often when we supposedly “repent” of sin, we are upset with God if consequences still follow. Genuine repentance, however, feels that it deserves and therefore submits to punishment or consequences!♦•”A heartbroken prophet with a heartbreaking message, Jeremiah labors for more than forty years proclaiming a message of doom to the stiff-necked people of Judah. Despised and persecuted by his countrymen, Jeremiah bathes his harsh prophecies in tears of compassion. His broken heart causes him to write a broken book…”

Importance & Distinctives of Jeremiah

A

Jeremiah is this 2nd longest book of the Bible (after Psalms). In fact, it may technically be considered the longest actual book in the Bible, since Psalms is actually a collection of 150 individual songs rather than a regular book. In fact, Jeremiah is about 1/3rd longer than all the minor prophets (Hosea, Joel, Amos Obadiah, Jonah, Micah Nahum, Habakkuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi) combined.

128
Q

We must study the doctrine of Satanology confidently.

A

•Knowing that when we submit to God and resist the Devil, he must flee from us. (James 4:7)♦•Knowing that “greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world”. (1 John 4:4)♦•Knowing that the Devil must kneel and ask permission of God before he can even approach a believer (Job -2)

129
Q

When we submit to God and resist the Devil,

A

he must flee from us. (James 4:7)

130
Q

The Devil must kneel and ask permission of God

A

before he can even approach a believer (Job -2)

131
Q

We must study the doctrine of Satanology carefully - recognizing 2 opposite dangers.

A

•Ignorance - We should be aware of our enemy’s devices “lest Satan should get an advantage of us”. (2 Cor 2:11)♦•Interest - One of Satan’s devices is to draw our attention away from God and to himself, even if that focus is for the purpose of fighting against him. (Luke 10:20)

132
Q

Three Chapters that refer to Satan’s Fall

A

Isaiah 14, Ezekiel 28, Revelation 12

133
Q

Lucifer is not an Eternal Being

A

Though he will exist for all of Eternity Future, he has not existed for all Eternity Past.

134
Q

Lucifer was created by God: (Ezekiel 28:15)

A

Lucifer was created in perfection & holiness. He only became sinful after he fell into sin as an act of his free will.♦♦He is not as powerful as his Creator - not even close! Satan loves to exaggerate his own power in his longing for glory, worship, fear and equality with God.

135
Q

Lucifer was created as an angel of God: (Ezekiel 28:14)

A

He was an “anointed cherub”.♦♦He was originally the chief cherub.

136
Q

Lucifer was created in absolute Holiness

A

He was the height or pinnacle of perfection, perhaps the most perfect creation of God - “…Thus saith the Lord God, Though sealest up the sum”.♦♦He was “full of wisdom”. Satan uses this wisdom against men today. False intellectualism, pseudo-science, and vain philosophies (secular and religious) have always been favorite tools of our subtle and sinister foe.♦♦He was created with built in musical instruments. Music was designed for the worship and glory of God. It appears that Satan may have been given charge over the music and worship of God in heaven.

137
Q

Note the famous five “I Will’s “ in the Fall of Lucifer:

A

♦I will be in the Place of God - Heaven♦♦I will rule the Angels of God - “stars”♦♦I will rule the creation of God♦♦I will possess greater glory than God♦♦I will have the Power of God

138
Q

Contrast of Satan’s “I Wills” and Jesus’ Will

A

♦Five times in Glory, Satan declared, “I Will”♦♦Three times in Gethsemane, Jesus declared “Not my will, but Thine be done.”

139
Q

Notice that the desire for Godhood was at

A

the heart of Satan’s fall and at the heart of the fall of man.

140
Q

Lucifer was lifted up and fell because of the pride of his heart over his beauty.

A

The sin of pride is therefore one of his chief tools which he uses against us today. The essence of all pride is taking glory to one’s self that belongs to God.

141
Q

Lucifer retains the appearance of his original creation as an Angel of Light.

A

It is important to realize he still utilizes this attribute to deceive and that his preachers also appear as ministers of righteousness.

142
Q

The 5 Chief Sins of Satan

A
  1. Pride♦2. Jealousy♦3. Self-will♦4. Rebellion♦5. Coveteousness
143
Q

We Are To Be Aware and Be Wary of the Devices of the Devil

A

♦Satan gains a foothold of control in our lives through unforgiveness.♦♦We are to be “vigilant” - constantly alert to the dangers of temptation and attack.♦♦Our response should be to remain steadfast in the faith by:♦♦Resting in and accepting how greatly God loves and cares for us and then casting our ♦ cares upon him.♦♦Knowing that, contrary to Satan’s lie, we are not the only ones suffering this badly.♦♦Knowing that God will supply grace though and bring good out of our trial.

144
Q

Why Did God Allow Satan to Tempt Man

A

•God granted this because of His Own holy nature.♦•God granted this because of His loving desire to have voluntary love and fellowship from man.♦•God allowed man to be given a choice in Eden because of His Sovereign Wisdom in that He is able to bring greater good out of the events that have followed the fall. One example of this is the teaching of Paul in Romans 5 that believers have gained far more in their salvation through Christ than they lost in their fall with Adam.

145
Q

In order to deceptively imitate God, Satan appears as an angel of light.

A

Entire false religions have been founded by men who claimed to have been given their revelations by an angel of light.

146
Q

Satan’s most dangerous guise is always his appearance, not as evil, but as good.

A

Few will embrace overt evil. It must be hidden or twisted into appearing as good.

147
Q

A

out of context

148

150
Q

Satan leads men to understress certain doctrines.

A

Even doctrines which we believe rightly may be so underemphasized in our thinking or living that, practically speaking, we live as if we rejected that truth.

151
Q

We should be aware of Satan’s most dangerously subtle attack on the Scriptures.

A

He takes the true Words of God rightly believed, and tempts men not to apply them.

152
Q

The Devil’s Role as the Opposer of God

A

•Satan attacks the family♦•Satan hinders the work of God. ♦•Satan afflicts men physically, emotionally, mentally or spiritually. ♦•Satan is the source of some, but not all affliction and sickness.♦•Satan blinds men to the truth of the Gospel.♦•Satan accuses Christians before the throne of God.♦•Satan tempts men.♦•Satan deceives men.♦•Satan provokes wars. This is indicated by the end of wars when he is bound and their return upon his release.♦•Satan stands against Israel - the chosen people of God.♦•Satan casts doubt upon God’s Word - “And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said…?”♦•Satan changes or corrupts God’s Word - “Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”♦•Satan completely denies God’s Word “…Ye shall not surely die”.

153
Q

The Temptation of Eve

A

•The Devil attacks with doubt - “And he said unto the woman, Yeah hath God Said Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?”♦•Satan takes our God-given desires and perverts them into evil desires.♦•The Lust of the Eyes - “…an that it was pleasant to the eyes…“♦•Satan fell through pride and caused man to fall through pride. Men have never learned and have been falling prey to this same tactic for centuries. How many lives, marriages, friendships, and churches have all been destroyed by pride.

154
Q

The Temptation of Job in Uz

A

•Satan is not all present. He came before God from the earth where he had been wandering to and fro. The Devil can only be in one place at a time.♦•He is not all knowing. He had no idea how Job would respond or that his entire plan would end in failure.♦•He is not all powerful. He has much power, but was so conscious of his inability to overcome God’s power that he did not even attempt to do so♦•He is not Sovereign. He can’t tempt a believer except by God’s permission.♦•God knows exactly how much we can bare.♦•God will not allow Satan beyond this point.♦•God only allows temptations to strengthen and to purify us.

155
Q

The Temptation of Christ

A

•No one is immune from temptation♦•Satan strikes at times when we are most susceptible •After our mountain top experiences - Jesus had just been baptized and publicly announced as the Messiah by John & the Father. The evil strikes when we are glad and therefore are not expecting or preparing for an attack.•During our valleys - Jesus has fasted for 40 days. The Devil strikes when we are sad, mad, in need, struggling with powerful desires, in weakness, or more tempted to be dominated by our emotions.•Before our service - Jesus was about to begin His public ministry. The old serpent wants to disqualify you from serving God or reaching others.♦•We can prepare for temptation. Jesus was filled with the Spirit and had His heart filled with memorized Scripture before He faced temptation.♦•Satan tempts us to act independently from God.♦•Satan often attacks in areas of our strengths and therefore potential overconfidence and lack of confidence upon God.♦•Satan tempts with the lust of the eyes. We defeat this by a heart and eyes so focusted on worship and Christ that the world holds no appeal. ♦•Satan tempts us to believe that he can give us all that we desire, but that God will not.

156
Q

157
Q

What Does it Mean To Resist the Devil

A

♦It means to submit to God - Satan wants you to rebel.♦♦It means to draw near to God - Satan wants you distant from God.♦♦It means to humble yourself - Satan wants you proud.♦♦It means to confess and genuinely repent of sin - Satan wants you to deny your sin and continue in your sin.

158
Q

Theistic Evolution teaches that God created man

A

by process of millions of years of suffering, agony, and death.

159
Q

Theistic Evolution denies that death and suffering were the penalty of man’s sin and teaches instead

A

that they were created by God and were the tools he used to create man.

160
Q

Theistic Evolution assaults God’s character by making him

A

the author of evil.

161
Q

Theistic Evolution destroys the entire basis of salvation through the death of Christ.

A

If Death came before sin, then it cannot be the wages of sin. If death is not the penalty of sin, then the death of Christ did not pay the penalty of our sins.

162
Q

Sacred Value of Life

Q

Pelagianism View of our Fallen Nature

A

There was no sinful nature which was passed on from Adam. God only olds individuals responsible for their own sin. Adam set a terrible precedent and left a poor example, but that’s all.

167
Q

Arminianism View of our Fallen Nature

A

Man’s holy nature has been weakened, but not removed and man is therefore still capable of living without sin. This view of man’s nature always leads to theologies that include good works as part of obtaining or keeping salvation.

168
Q
