He took me in his arms and set us I looked up and said, I love you, too. He gives me strength to face each day. He pours out love all along the way. In spite of all I've done, in spite of all I've been, he saved my soul. Now I'm pressing on Standing strong Waiting for the day To feel his embrace See his face The one who led the way He'll take me in his arms look up and say I love you too.

It's worthy, amen. Hallelujah. Amen. That's right. Amen. They nailed him to a rugged cross and left him there to die. The devil bore the royal road before, not knowing they had crucified my Lord. They're dying. I was on his mind. The sacrifice and love, some don't appreciate. But I would like to speak and set the record straight. His presence is not free. through the existence of His Son. Though some may be condemned to just sit by, I for one will stand and testify as my God For all the world to hear, I'll say it loud and clear. That's my God. That's my God. The sun may be contained to just sit by. I for one will stand and just And I love Him as my Jesus, He died for me. For all the world to hear, I'll say it loud and clear as my heart. Amen. That's right. Amen. Yes, amen. That's right. They took our hope to a courtyard and stripped him of his clothes. They gambled on his garments with his head bowed. They scorned him and they mocked him and said, why not save yourself? If you're who you really say you are, this will be no contest. While struggling to carry that man-made, torturous rack, they shouted, crucify him, with the world sent upon his back. With a crown of thorns upon his head, above him was his name. As the soldier spat in his precious face, said, now Jesus, where's your fame? Come, Lord, may they win. They will never crucify Him again. That's right. From the north, the south, the east, and west, all nations will gather in. And God will trade His bloodstained rugged cross for a before Him and worship His King. They won't drive nails in His hands or His feet. They'll proclaim that in the highest, He's the Lord of everything. They will never crucify Him again. He's the Lord of everything. They will never crucify Him again. Again. Again. Again. They will never crucify Him again. Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! you You. you Amen. Amen. Well, I'm glad he's on the throne. Glad he's in control. And he died one time, he's never gonna die again. Praise God, he got up. He won't ever have to do that again. We're just waiting on him to come get us, amen. I'm glad I've done the bow. Don't have to worry about that. Amen, that's right. Bible says one day Everly's gonna bow. And confess that he's the Lord. Everly will. I'm glad I freely, gladly wanted to do it. Amen. Yeah, Lord, deal with your heart and get you under conviction. See yourself a sinner, you'll want to humble yourself down before him, amen. I'm so glad I did. I'm so glad the Lord helped me do that. And the Lord saved me, amen. He did it all. Amen. For by grace are you saved through faith and doubt not of yourselves. It is a gift of God. Not of works that any man should boast. We don't have nothing to boast about. but it's all about Jesus, amen. So I'm glad I'm saved tonight, appreciate the great message last night, looking forward to tonight, and I'm glad you've come tonight, and we've got several out sick tonight, and we had a lady on the way to church, was in a little bump up, so she's got him from getting here tonight, so pray for her. But we're here, and God's on the throne, he's in control, amen. Now we can come to worship, amen, hope you come to worship. And let's do our best for Jesus tonight, this could be the very last service we're ever in. We're gonna be in the last service we're ever in. We're leaving. We're gonna be leaving, amen. That's right. And so, we'll be leaving soon, too, amen. And so I'm glad I'm ready, amen. Glad I got saved, glad I'm ready. And done made my reservation, amen. He made it for me, amen. And I'm not gonna be late. That's right. I'm gonna be right there, amen. Okay, well, we're taking the offering up each night tonight and each night this week, and we're taking this offering up for the print ministry, the Victor Baptist Church print ministry. And our church is gonna take care of Brother Frazier for being here with us, but we try every year that he's with us to just focus on gathering a little bit of money up for the print ministry while he's here that week. And so everything you give, an offering plate, we're gonna write a check out to the Victory Baptist Print Ministry. And they put a lot of literature out, amen. And so if you wanna give to that tonight, we'll have our ushers to come. And if you wanna give to that tonight, that's what that's gonna be going, the offering gonna be going tonight. I encourage you to give and it helps get the word of God out. And he also, he prints all kinds of material, prints books and college stuff, all kinds of stuff to help preachers and all. It's a great work, amen? And I praise God for it, amen. So if you want to give to that. One project, 1,300 people said they got saved. That's great. Amen. That's wonderful. Amen. That's great. I like letters like that. Oh, I do too. Amen. Praise the Lord. Brother Billy, appreciate you coming down. I'm glad you got here. Amen. And if you don't mind, you pray with all of us. Yes. We thank you first of all, Lord, for your love. Yes. Lord, thank you for your mercy. Oh, God, we thank you for that, Lord. We pray for tonight's offering, Lord. Yes. multiply not only the monetary portion of it, Lord, but you would multiply it, Lord. A lot more material for the same amount. Lord, I ask that you touch Brother Frazier tonight, God, that you would just fill him up and use him, Lord, to have the power and anointing he needs. Lord, I pray tonight, Lord. God, it'd be great to see somebody get some of this. We know, Lord, if people will come to receive it, Lord, you'll give it freely and give it willingly. God, we just want to thank you for all you've done in Jesus' name. Let's all stand and grab a red hymn.

Amen. Amen. It don't matter to me. I just know I'm going. Amen. That's right. Yes, that's right. I thank God every day and every night, everywhere I go, that I'm saved. But you know, I see people everywhere I look around, they seem to have no clue about who Jesus is. They act like they've been in a deep, dark cage for more than nothing. They don't know nothing. But I'm telling you, it's on the counter. They ain't wanted to know. The reason I said that is I spent 19 years. I made a professional case when I was 14 years old. I spent about 19, 20 years telling nobody. I'm saved. I don't need you to try to take him on down the road. Take him on somebody else. And I lived in that state of mind, thinking, and I believed it. Oh, I really, truly believed that I was saved. But I'm telling you this. I went back, I went to the world, and just didn't care how tough the war was. I didn't care what happened to me. I had such a burden. I had such a burden, I was going to get my car up to 100 miles an hour and go to a good job. Ended up, I thought, that's all there is to it. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working.

I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, and they were all working. I turned around, And I thought about that thing a little bit. And it did take me months to figure out. The doctor just told me I was lost. And I'm telling you, you take a fool for saying it. I don't want to get the same thing right over and over again. Oh, but I hurried up. I said, God, give me a fool. Hey! Head, center, lost. Religious man that thought he had everything under control and didn't have nothing. By the time I went to Carolina, by then, he would have been justified. Because he dealt with me several times. And I just put it off. You know what? I put it off until I was in Carolina. I put it off on this way. I have even went to the altar before. And the Lord brought me to the altar. And when I got to the altar, the Savior put it in my mind. But if I'm not saved, the Lord saves me. And God don't save you if I'm not saved. You've got to get lost before you get saved. Yes. And God went to hell riding religion. I'm satisfied in my heart. I've got a bunch of people that's on that portal of religion. I don't need nothing. All I need to do is I thank God. He woke me up. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.

Well, we ought to praise Him. We're going to do it forever. We're going to do it forever, amen. I'm going to praise Him forever. Amen. Might as well get in practice, amen. That's right. Remember when Mace Jackson used to say this years and years ago, he said, I'm gonna be up there in glory land. He said, some of this crowd is gonna come through there and they're gonna shout for the first time. He said, I told you it was good the whole time. Amen. That's right, you ain't waiting to have them shout. Amen. Praise God, get your shouting shoes on now, amen. That's right, praise him. Amen, nothing wrong with being vocal. Amen, vocal, amen. Yeah, I don't know about all them silent Christians. I don't know about all that. Praise God. Amen. Amen. Praise the Lord. Amen. Praise God. Amen. I'm glad the Lord didn't let old Brother Al go to hell. I'm glad the Lord saved him. He blesses me every time he testifies. I love you, Brother Al. I appreciate you so much. I appreciate him so much, amen. Brother Frazier, I'll tell you this now. I'll tell you this. He preached a lot of meetings through the year. And I'd say probably, if I'm wrong, you can correct me, but I'd say most of these folks get saved by church folks. Is that not right? A lot of them church folks. The church folk getting saved. What about that now? You say, what are you saying? I'm just saying the church folk ain't never been saved. And thank God they're getting saved. And you men in church not be saved. You be baptized, not be saved. That's right. You can do all that and not be saved, amen. That's right. Amen, preach and teach and all that stuff, yeah. A lot of preachers I know need to get saved. Amen, you say you know preachers need to get saved? I know preachers that need to get saved, amen. I can give you a whole list of them if you want them. Yeah, that's right, you must be born again. No matter who you are, you must be born again. I'm glad I've been born again, amen. Brother Frazier's coming to preach. Amen, amen. Well, let's turn in our Bibles to the book of Isaiah, chapter number one. Isaiah, chapter number one in your Bible. And again, it's wonderful to be here. Thank you for coming tonight. I know some of you got to work in the morning, and we'll be mindful of that as we sleep and think about you working in the morning. Amen. I'm just kidding. Y'all don't have to take your offering back, amen. Amen. Isaiah chapter number one, and we're going to read part of the first verse. We'll pray then and let you be seated. Book of Isaiah chapter number one, verse number one says the vision of Isaiah, the vision of Isaiah. This is not just God talking to him and him pinning it down. This is an actual sighting. He sees this happening and pins it down. I'm going to preach for just a few minutes off those four words, the vision of Isaiah. Let's pray and you can be seated. Father, we love you. Thank you for loving us, letting us come to church again tonight. What a privilege and honor it is again to stand in this place and preach to these people. God, I'm praying, Lord, that you do something supernatural tonight. God, that you would revive the church, Lord, and get our minds back on you and stayed on you. And God, for those that may hear this message tonight here or some other way, but they may hear this message, I pray, God, that the conviction power of the Holy Ghost of God would deal in their heart, and they'd see theirselves, and they'd get gloriously saved. Lord, to do that, they'd have to see you. High and lifted up. And God, for that, Lord, we're gonna do our very best, amen, to exalt you and to praise you, God, tonight. Lord, in Jesus' name, we ask these things. Amen and amen. You can be seated. Amen. I'm interested tonight in the vision of Isaiah. Now, Isaiah was a tremendous man. He was a prophet. And I've got some notes here in my study Bible, and it says, Isaiah, is justly accounted the chief of the writing prophets. He has the more comprehensive testimony and is distinctively the prophet of redemption. Nowhere else in the scripture written under the law have we so clear a view of grace. The New Testament church now does not appear, but Messiah in his person and sufferings and the blessings of the Gentiles through him are in full view. In other words, Isaiah got to see something that the others didn't get to see. He got to see the future. How far in the future, Brother Frazier? About 700 years into the future. God allowed Isaiah, not just to hear about it, not just somebody told him he pinned it down, or even God whispered to him, or breathed on him, but he actually saw a vision of some things that were gonna happen 700 years in the future. Now, I'm interested in that. Amen. Now, I'll say a few things about the book of Isaiah real quickly. Isaiah has 66 chapters in it. Some may be aware of this, some may not, but it is like a Bible within the Bible. There are 66 books in our Bible. There's also 66 chapters in the book of Isaiah. In the Old Testament, there are 39 books, and then there are 27 in the New Testament. In the book of Isaiah, there are 39 chapters, amen, of judgment and of law and of sin, amen, in the book of Isaiah. THEME, THE TONE OF HIS BOOK TURNS COMPLETELY AROUND. IT GOES FROM JUDGEMENT AND FROM SIN AND THE LAW. IT TURNS, AMEN, AND THE LAST 27 VERSES IN THE BOOK OF ISAIAH, OR CHAPTERS I SHOULD SAY, AMEN, ARE ABOUT GRACE AND REDEMPTION AND GOD SAVING. AMEN, IT IS A BIBLE WITHIN ITS SELF. IT IS A BOOK OF GOD. Now, if I'm going to say that on a ham, then I want to go over to chapter number 40, because in chapter number 40, everything changes. Any commentary that's worth his salt, amen, he's got, amen, a division right here and says, amen, everything changes here. Sure enough, even in study Bible, like my study Bible, amen, it shows that the tone changes. It's changing from God bringing down, amen, punishment upon them, amen, to chapter number 40 and verse number 1, where Isaiah, amen, seeing these things, he writes down, comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God. Amen, he speaks of iniquity. A man is pardoned in verse number two. And then he gets to verse number three. And the Bible says, the voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, prepare you the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Now we know, anybody that reads their Bible and knows much about the Bible, they know that in the book of Matthew, he's declaring these verses. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness. He's talking about John the Baptist. He wasn't John the Presbyterian, John the Methodist. He was John the Baptist. Somebody said that ain't what that means. Are you going to tell me that his last name was Baptist and his middle name was the? Hey man, he was the Baptist, amen. Now I know we don't, hey, everything wasn't exactly like the Baptist are today, because we've got some tutti-frutti Baptist today, amen. Somebody said they're 60-something flavors of Baptist now, amen. I believe there's tutti-frutti in there somewhere, amen, because if you've got 60-something different divisions in a Baptist, you've got a mess, amen. But John was a Baptist, amen, and I am a Baptist too. Now that tells us, amen, if chapter number 40, amen, is the beginning here of this mini-Bible within the Bible, amen, then that means that chapter number 40 would be the book of Matthew. And sure enough, as you see that, you're seeing that he starts it off just like he does the book of Matthew, after he gives those names that nobody can pronounce, not even their mama, amen, and then he goes into this voice of one crying in the in the wilderness. And sure enough, chapter number 40 lines up, amen, with the book of Matthew. Now, in the book of Matthew, God describes the Lord Jesus as being the king. Amen. The book of Matthew is the king book. Amen. Jesus revealed as the king. Amen. If we look at verse number 10 in chapter number 40 of Isaiah, it says, Behold, the Lord God will come with strong hand, and his arms shall rule for him. HIS REWARD IS WITH HIM AND HIS WORK BEFORE HIM. AMEN. IT'S REVEALING IN CHAPTER 40 THAT THE MESSIAH, BROTHER PAUL, THAT'S GONNA COME 700 YEARS FROM THAT TIME, AMEN, WHEN HE COMES ON THE SCENE, HE'S GONNA BE LIKE A KING. THE BOOK OF MARK, AND MARK DESCRIBES HIM AS A SERVANT. AND SURE ENOUGH, IF YOU'LL READ THAT FOR SAKE OF TIME TO ALL THOSE THAT'S GOT TO WORK IN THE MORNING, AMEN, I WILL NOT LOOK UP EVERY VERSE IN THERE, AMEN, BUT WE'LL SEE SOME DESCRIPTION, AMEN, OF THE MESSIAH BEING A SERVANT. AND THEN YOU'VE GOT THE BOOK OF LUKE. NOW LUKE WAS WRITTEN BY AN ACTUAL MESSIAH, A SERVANT OF THE MESSIAH. medical physician, amen, and so he described the Lord Jesus, not as a king and not as a servant, but as a man, amen, and he knew those miracles that he was doing could not be done by just a man, amen, but he He pictures him. He reveals the Messiah as being, amen, a perfect man. If we look in chapter 42 and we look at verse number 13, amen, look what the Bible says. The Lord shall go forth as a mighty man. See, he's revealing. So we got Matthew, and we got Mark, and we got Luke. And then we get to chapter, amen, number, what, 40, 41, 42, and 43. 43 lining up with the book of John. And sure enough, amen, you see that John's describing him and revealing the Christ as very God. And so when we look in chapter number 43, hey man, we look at verse number 11, hey man, and it says, I, even I, am the Lord, and beside me there is no Savior. Hey man, in verse number 3 it said, for I am the Lord thy God, and the Holy One of Israel thy Savior. Hey, man, I can turn a page there. Hey, man, I can look in verse number 15. It says, I am the Lord, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King. And so we see Matthew, Mark, and Luke, and John. Hey, man, we see chapter 41, 40, 41, 42, and 43. Well, when we get to chapter 44, we'd be over in the book of Acts. Hey, man, ain't y'all glad I'm not gonna go all the way through the whole New Testament? Hey, man, that guy raised both hands. Praise God. Amen. Chapter number 44 though, look at verse number three. For I will pour water upon him that is thirsty, the floods upon the dry ground. I will pour my spirit upon thy seed and my blessings upon that offspring. Of course, we see that being revealed, amen, at the day of Pentecost, amen, as God is pouring out His Holy Spirit upon them in that upper room, amen, and they are supernaturally endowed with the ability, amen, to be able to speak in unknown tongues, languages, amen, they had not been trained to speak in. It was supernatural. It was a sign for Israel. Amen, so Isaiah, and I'm gonna stop there, amen, and we'll go a little bit farther over and somewhere else, amen, but you can look through that and you'll be amazed at how it lines up, amen, it's a Bible within the Bible. Now the whole focus of this, as Isaiah's writing it down, is a vision, he sees it. I know I've learned as being a preacher of all the preachers in here. Amen. I'm going to say amen to this that when God wakes me up in the middle of the night I do not lay there. I get up. Somebody asked me one time said what is the greatest message you have ever had. Brother Frazier. And I said I forgot it. I woke up one night and God was showing me something that was so amazing, so powerful. I'm telling you, it was the best thought God had ever given me. God taught me something that night because I laid there for probably an hour just in awe as God was revealing things to me. And I said, when I get up in the morning, I'm gonna write all those things down. And I said, as awesome as that is, there's no way I could ever forget that. Dustin sat there going like this, hey man, you've done that too, huh? And sure enough, I dozed back off to sleep, and the next morning, God taught me a lesson. I knew it was awesome when I woke up, I ran to the study, I got my papers out, and there was nothing. I believe that Isaiah was the type of prophet. By the way, there's no prophets today. We don't need prophets now today because when that which is perfect has come, that's talking about the Bible, then that which is in part shall be done away. He tells us in chapter 13 of Corinthians, Amen, he talks about the prophecies shall fail. Amen, the tongues shall cease. So that supernatural gift is not given today and that gift, amen, for the man to see and to be breathed upon to write the Bible, amen, is not for today. It's already complete. We have that which is perfect or that which is done, that which is complete. Amen, we have it in our hand. Now we've got every kind of flavor in Dayton for sure. And we do have Tutti Frutti. Amen, we've got a church there, the Church of God of Prophecy. Don't get mad at me if your mama was an evangelist. Your grandma was a Holy Ghost. Don't get mad at me. Amen, but, amen, there's a young man there, and they tried to keep him there, keep him from going on, and so they said that he was a God-called prophet. He was working at the grocery store there pushing food in and out in a little buggy. I came in, and he had visited our church a couple of times, but we wouldn't make him a prophet, amen, so he went on down to the Church of God of Prophecy, amen, and he come to me there in that church, and he said this. He said, Brother Frazier, now I know you're not gonna believe this, but he said, I'm a prophet. And I said, you are? He said, yep, I sure am. Said the church, amen, they anointed me and I'm a prophet. And I said, well, then prophesy. And son, he got mad at me. And he said, I knew you wasn't gonna believe it. I knew you wasn't. And I said, well, you said you was a prophet. I said, so prophesy to me. Hey man, tell me something, you're the prophet. And he just stomped off. Oh, he was so mad because I didn't believe that he was a prophet. There are no prophets today. Hey man, Brother Allen didn't even like you calling it the prophet's chamber if you had a room for him to stay in. He said, let's just call it the preacher's room. Amen, amen. But Isaiah, Isaiah, I believe, I can picture this in my mind. If he can see a vision, I can kind of vision it in my mind. There is a difference between dreams and visions. Amen, a dream can happen because you ate ice cream and chili. You should not have ate that chili. Amen, that had them peppers in it right before you went to bed. Amen, but you poured it over top of them corn chips. Amen, and you dashed it down with a little bit of that hot sauce. And you went over, amen, and the fire came down. Hey man, and then you realize you better put it out. So you ate a half a gallon of vanilla ice cream on top of it, and then you went to bed thinking you're gonna sleep all night without having a dream. Hey man, you dreamed you a Santa Claus. But we're not talking about that. We're talking about a vision from God, a real vision from God. And I believe that Isaiah had a place that he would study. I can picture it in my mind, him not, boy, what he would have given for an ink pen. Don't you know them Old Testament prophets would have loved to have had that right there? Hey man, if that's all we had, no computers, nothing else, no books, nothing. Hey man, if we could just come and present that right there, they would have said, wow. Man, if I didn't have to dip it every letter, hey, that would have been a great thing. Amen. I believe he had a little inkwell. Amen. Probably had a feather sticking out of it. Amen. And he had some skins of animals laying out there. Amen. Ready at any moment that when God would show him something, he'd rush and get to his room. Amen. And he would pin it down. Amen. He would write it down exactly like he saw it. exactly like he saw. Now, Brother Dietz, if we're gonna say, hey man, that Isaiah's book, hey man, is a Bible within the Bible, and we're gonna say that those last chapters, 27 last chapters are the New Testament, hey man, and could confer back and forth with that and reveal some things, hey man, that were concealed in the Old Testament and revealed in the New, hey man, then we're gonna have to say, what was the center focus of his vision. And sure enough, when I look in the center of his writings in those last 27 chapters, 27, that means they'd be 13 on this side of it. Hey man, they'd be 13 on that side, which would be 26. That means that center chapter would be chapter number 14. Hey man, if you take 14, hey man, you go back and grab those 39 from the Old Testament, add that 14 to it. Hey man, it would bring you to a chapter 53. I want you to turn to Isaiah chapter 53 with me. And what did Isaiah see? I'm talking about a vision that he saw and he pinned it down. Now y'all gonna like this part, I've only got four points. 382 sub points, but four points. I'm joking. What did Isaiah see? I want you to know that God saved the people in the Old Testament, amen, the same way he saved the people and is saving people in the New Testament. Everybody that has ever been saved has been saved by grace through faith. They were not saved because they fulfilled the law. Now they lived under the law. Amen. The law was a blessing. Amen. The law showed them that they were lost. Amen. The purpose of the law was never that someone somehow some way could fulfill it Mason. And because they could be good, then they could go to heaven without being saved through God's gift. No, no man could do it. Nobody, there was never a person that fulfilled the law besides the Lord Jesus, amen, and he was God in a fleshly man's body. Amen, David didn't do it. Amen, Isaiah didn't do it. Amen, Solomon couldn't do it. Amen, Samson couldn't do it. Amen, and just name off everybody else. Amen, there was never a person in the Old Testament, nor the New, amen, that was good enough to go to heaven. Our Bible declares there's none good, no, not one. Well, I'd say Caleb's a pretty good guy. What about Chris? He's not talking about you being a pretty good guy. He's talking about there's none good enough to go to heaven. Amen. All saying we've all come show the glory of God. There's none righteous. No not one. Hey man. And God showed something to Isaiah. And it was the gospel. Amen. So I want you to notice with me, we'll start, we'll just take a few minutes, glance through the book of Isaiah chapter 53, and let me tell you something, you as a preacher already know about Isaiah 53, I can quote Isaiah 53, that is wonderful. But I want to tell you something about revival. Revival truly is. Revival is, amen, made up of two forms, one being vive, amen, which means to be made alive, and then revive, amen, means to do again, remade alive again, amen. So when you first got saved, amen, how you felt, how you was on fire for God, how all you wanted to think about was the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit of God and God the Father being so good to you, and you was telling everybody, you were going everywhere, Down on the job, I mean, you couldn't help it. I mean, you tried not to. You thought you was going to get in trouble, but you couldn't help it. Amen, so you told them. Amen, you were handing out tracts down at the Walmart. Amen, you were just telling everybody everywhere you went. Amen, but over the years, amen, it seems like, and sometimes it doesn't take years and years. Sometimes you can be on fire for God one month, amen, and you can be cooled off by the next. Now, I'm going to tell you what God don't want in this last generation, amen, and I'm going to tell you what we are, amen. The Bible gives us some churches right before he comes in the rapture, and they're revealed to us in the first few chapters in the book of Revelation. And the last church age, church period, amen, was one called the Church of the Laodiceans. And the problem God has with that church is that they're lukewarm, amen. Now, he would that they were cold or hot. If they were one or the other, amen, he could do something with them. Amen, but they're just lukewarm. Amen, they're rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing. If that's not describing our average church today, I don't know what to tell you. Amen, they've got their eyes off of God. And God said, amen, you need to anoint thine eyes with eye salve, amen, that thou mayest see. Amen, the last thing he says to the church before he comes to get us out in chapter number four, Amen, he declares that they've got their eyes, amen, full of something other than God. And sure enough, if you want a revival, amen, you gotta get your eyes back on God. And there's nothing that can get you back, amen, any better than a fresh trip back to Calvary. What did Isaiah say? I can picture him, Brother Al, sitting at a desk, a table. I can picture him, he's got his inkwell there and a big feather sticking out of him. He's rolled back the skin of an animal and he's waiting on God. I can see him while he sits there, oh, precious man of God, Isaiah, waiting on God to speak to him, waiting on God to show him something. And all of a sudden, he begins to see a vision. What does he see? I can picture his countenance. I can see him with his eyes shut while he's sitting there waiting on God. I can see his eyes open. I can see his countenance. What is that? What is that? He's seeing Jesus on the cross. He can't quite make it out. According to the Bible his vision is marred. So marred. There's that word. So a man as many as were astounded at these visions was so marred more than any man and his form more than the sons of man. Hey man I looked up that word there. So marred in our English a man is a word that that means to not even look human anymore. The Lord Jesus here now, a God showing Isaiah a vision. He's not just thinking about it. He's not just hearing about it. He is the one that is seeing it. And as he sees it, he can see the cross as if he was there. Hey man, he can back up just a little bit in his mind and see two crosses on each side, one on each side. Hey man, he can see three there. Hey man, mounted on the crosses. One in the middle is so marred more than any man. Hey man, he does not even look human anymore. They have beaten him. They have beaten him and scourged him and buffeted him and beat his face until his eyes are swelled shut and his nose is pouring blood and his cheeks are ripped apart by the hair they pulled from his face. Thorns from the crown and mockery pierced through his head. Blood is gushing from his face. His mouth is vomiting blood rolling down his chest. His ears, no doubt, dangling from the beating and from the thorns. His guts hanging out. His skin dangling from the cross. He had drug it in the dirt on his way to Calvary. And he sees it. He probably took his breath. What is that? What is that? As he zooms in on his vision, he can tell that something's on that middle cross. And he glances on either side and sees that men are there. Surely that's not a man in the middle. And he focuses in and sees his feet. with the nail driven through him, sees his hands with the nails drove through, and begins to make out a little bit of form. Hey, man, he has no form, nor comeliness. Hey, man, I mean, this man is beaten beyond even the form of a human. Hey, man, he focuses in on it. No doubt his mind is raging. Hey, man, trying to wonder, who is this? Who is this? And the Bible says, verse number one, who hath believed I report unto whom is the arm of the Lord revealed. I preached a message one time on the arm of the Lord. The power that the Lord Jesus, I mentioned it last night, has in the fingertips to cast the stars into their places. There's one star out there that's millions of times bigger than our sun. And he flung them into their places off of his fingertips. But perhaps maybe the most powerful thing that God ever did is he revealed his arm, not just his finger, not even just his hand. But Brother Miller, he revealed his arm. Amen. He went to do, amen, the hardest thing that God ever done. He's give his son. the power of God, for I'm not ashamed of the gospel of Christ. For it is the power, amen, it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. I wanna read just a little bit of what he saw. We'll be done here in just a moment. Amen, if you want a revival, focus in, amen. Make it afresh in you. Verse number two says, for he shall grow up before him as a tender plant and as a root out of a dry ground. Commentaries tell me, amen, this could speak of the virgin birth of our Lord Jesus. Amen. A dry ground. Amen. A tender plant. His young life. He grows up. Sinless perfection. You remember, brother, when he was 12 years old and he was busy about the father's business? My, my, my. Sinless perfection. Amen. In a man's body. He hath no form nor comeliness. And when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him. Amen. Number one tonight, that was introduction. Number one tonight, you ought to write it down. Isaiah saw, amen, his death. Isaiah saw the Messiah. Isaiah saw the Christ, the anointed of God. He saw his death. He has despised and rejected of men, a man of sorrows. He's seeing this for the first time. Are y'all listening to me? He's watching it happen before his very eyes. He's seeing Jesus on the cross. But Caleb, there's an old song. Were you there when they crucified my Lord? Were you there when they crucified my Lord? And the old psalm says, Oh, as he weeps. Oh, I heard that song when I was, even before I got saved, I heard that song and I said, I wasn't there. I thought, what a strange song, asking me if I was there. I wasn't there, but I was there. I didn't know I was there. The writer of the song was far more spiritual than I was. When I got saved, I heard the song. I said, well, wait a minute, I was there. You were there. Amen, if you've been saved by the grace of God, you were there. Let's look at what happened and let's see it afresh. He's despised and rejected a man, a man sorrowed, acquainted with grief. We hid as it were our faces from him. He was despised and we esteemed him not. He hath borne our griefs and carried our sorrows. Yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement of our peace was upon him. And with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray. We have turned everyone to his own way, and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth. He is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before shears is done, so he opened not his mouth. Isaiah's seeing it. It's a vision. Have you ever seen it? Have you ever seen it? Now, I'm not talking about with your physical eyes. I'm not talking about in this body. I'm talking about with the eyes of faith. Amen. I'm talking about seeing Jesus on the cross, dying for our sins. And you can make it more personal than that. Amen. You can say it like this. Amen. He was bruised for my iniquity. Amen. Amen. It was my transgressions. Amen. God breaking down sin into three categories. Iniquity. Iniquity. Brother Craig is what we were born with. Amen. I was shapen in iniquity. Amen. In my mother's womb. Amen. I was being formed. I was being shapen in iniquity. That's what I inherited from Adam. Amen. In the garden. The blood that was set down through the generations come all the way to me just like it did you. Amen. Without the blood, amen, there'd be no life. Amen. But it's that blood that's tainted. I was born. I was shapen. I was formed in iniquity. transgressions when I cross the line. Hey man, God says thou shalt not, but I step across and do it anyway. God says don't do this, but I do it anyway. God says don't steal, but I steal anyway. God says don't bear a false witness, no words, don't lie. Has anybody in here ever lied? If you've never lied, would you raise your hand? Good, I'm glad nobody raised their hand, I was gonna call them a liar. We've all come short of the glory of God. We've all sinned. We've all gone astray. We're all shaped and born in iniquity. We all have transgressed and stepped across the line. And then there's sin. The Bible declares it, for we've all sinned and come short. Sin is a coming short. It involves, amen, and all that three can be engulfed into one, and God call it sin. Amen, we've all sinned and come show the glory of God. Amen, can you see Jesus? Can you see him? Can you see him on the cross? Amen, he's dying. Amen, for not only, amen, the sins of the people there. Amen, but for us. Amen. Amen, I see Isaiah saw the Lord Jesus dying for our sins. Then I see number two, Isaiah saw his burial. Look at verse number nine with me. He made his grave with the wicked and with the rich in his death. What did he see? Isaiah sitting there at his table, he saw Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea. They come, they've got some stuff with them. They've got like a hundred pounds of spices. Amen. They come and they've got permission to bring him down off the cross. He can see him. Amen. Jesus, lifeless, dead. They bring him down. They put the spices on him, they wrap him in the clothes, and they take him down to, amen, the garden, the tomb, amen, and they bring him in, lay him down. Isaiah's watching it all, 700 years before it happened, amen, and it wasn't just a cartoon about it, amen, it was an actual, he watched it happen. You say, he couldn't have watched it happen before it ever happened? You gotta understand, God is not bound by time. We can't understand that. God is not bound by time. God brought the future 700 years back and let Isaiah see it. Amen. Isaiah saw Nicodemus. Isaiah saw, amen, Joseph of Arimathea putting him in that tomb. He saw him as they walked out. He saw the stone being rolled in the way. He saw, amen, the seal being put around. He saw, amen, the soldiers, the guards standing there making sure that none of the disciples could come and take his body away, amen, and make the last worse than the first, amen. He saw it. He saw it. He saw his burial. Amen. He not only saw his death and his burial, amen, but he saw his resurrection. Look at verse number 10. It pleased the Lord to bruise him. He had put him to grief. When thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed. Listen to this. He shall prolong his days and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand. Amen. Look at verse 11. And he shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied by his knowledge, shall his righteous servant justify many, for he shall bear their iniquities. Amen. Therefore will I divide him a portion. He saw the death, he saw the burial, he saw the resurrection, and he saw the exaltation. Amen. He gets to see Jesus. Amen. High and lifted up. Not only on the cross, but high and lifted up after he's resurrected. Amen. Therefore, will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong. Amen. That's meaning, amen, God, the Lord Jesus. Amen. One day he's going to divide. Amen. Rewards amongst us. Amen. Because he had poured out his soul unto death. He was numbered with the transgressors. He bore the sin of many and made intercession for the transgressors. Let me tell you what God the Lord Jesus did 700 years before it happened. Amen. God in the future brings it back and lets Isaiah see it. Isaiah pins it down. Amen. Isaiah is telling everybody about it, puts it in the book, and even to this day Jews do not want to read Isaiah 53. You want to know why they don't want to read that? You know why their moms and dads tell them not to read that? You can read the whole Old Testament. You read anywhere you want to, but don't read Isaiah 53. Amen. You want to know why? Because when they read Isaiah 53, amen, God the Holy Ghost, amen, reveals to them that it was the Lord Jesus. The ones that are getting saved is because, listen, amen, even though they're told not to read it, they read it and God gives them The vision. I wonder tonight. I remember when I first saw it. Oh, when I was a little boy, I went to a church one time, I went down to the altar and I said a prayer, I didn't see it. I said the words they told me to. I grew up. Nineteen years later, God drew me back to the house of God. Amen. And I saw it. I saw that He gave His life, amen, and died on the cross so that I could be saved. I saw that He shed His blood so that God could be satisfied. I saw Him as my propitiation, amen. Amen. I saw that I was justified if I received Him as my Savior. Oh, what a Savior, what a Savior, what a God, what a Lord, what a Master, what a King, amen. Jesus, wonderful Jesus, amen. Have you seen Him? Have you seen it? Did you see it? Now you're looking at a preacher who don't believe you can be saved if you don't believe the gospel. You've got to believe the Gospel in order to be saved. It's the power of God. Amen. You can tell a scary story. You can tell them about awful places. Amen. But if they don't believe the Gospel, they're not going to go to heaven when they die. Amen. I'm for preaching on hell. Amen. I probably will before the week's out. Amen. But I'm here to tell you, you can believe all about hell and you can believe all about heaven. But if you don't accept Jesus as your Savior, if you don't trust in the Gospel, you'll die lost. It's not just believing there's a hell and it's not just believing there's a heaven. Amen. You must believe the gospel. And the gospel is the death and the burial and the resurrection of God's only begotten son, Jesus, amen, in God in a fleshly body, virgin born, amen, perfect, victorious, virtuous life. And he died. and he was buried and he rose again. Now I'm going to tell you something about Caleb. All of my eggs are in one basket. Hey man, you ever heard somebody say, don't put all your eggs in one basket now. I've got all my eggs in one basket. What does that mean? Hey man, I don't even have a plan B. I am so confident that plan A is right, I ain't even look for a plan B. Amen. You're gonna say, hey, but what about it, Brother Frazier, if you're wrong? I ain't wrong. You say, but what if you are? I ain't. Amen. You say, how do you know you ain't? Because I got a book, amen. I got a Bible, amen. I'm telling you what Isaiah saw, amen. I'm telling you what Abraham saw when he was on the mountain offering up his son. God showed him the gospel. Abraham saw his son dying. Amen. He's standing over him with a knife. Amen. He knew he was going to resurrect him. He showed him the gospel. God preached the gospel unto Abraham. Amen. And Isaiah knew it. Have you seen it? Wouldn't it just be awful to be a church member all your life and die lost? I'm sure Brother Dietz was there. I know Brother Hale was there. We was over here at China Grove. You was there back to Bethel. You was my bodyguard that year. Amen, that's right. So they might have been pile-up-ins over there. And there was a woman that came down and got down on the altar right over there. And that was busy. He's busy, cause I was up there preaching, and I turned around like this, I was preaching a big way, and Brother Caleb, I turned around, and I went over here and said something, and when I turned back around, there's a man standing right here, on my own, you're not supposed, hey, don't come up here. And I turned around, was you there Dustin? He was standing right here, he just died the other day. Somebody called me and told me, that man just died the other day. He is standing right here. And I turned around like this right here. I mean, I about run into him. I backed off a step. And before I could even do anything, Brother Ron Young had done come up on the stage and another brother that was the song leader, big tall feller. Hey man, I can't remember his name. Hey man, what's his name? Eddie. Brother Eddie come up, I remember now. Hey man, brother Eddie, and brother, I mean, they was up there like, hey man, like Donald Trump's, hey man, secret service. Hey man, I mean, they was on the stage. And I just backed away, stopped right there, and I just moved out of the way. I mean, they had him. Hey man, and he just fell to the floor. I mean, his knees, boom. I'm lost, he said. I turned around like this, and he was standing right there, and I thought, man, he gonna swing at me. He said, I'm lost. While he was getting saved, I come around him like this right here, and I mean, the altars were just, it was like a wave. I mean, they was filling up everywhere. And a woman came by and grabbed my wife and took off running with her and drug her to the altar. And I could hear her screaming. I come by and I could hear her telling Linda, I'm lost, I'm lost, I'm lost. And she had been a Sunday school teacher for 40 years. It's a preacher, oh no, you said something and confused her. She said she knowed she'd been lost. Now listen to me, this is what she told her. She said, when I was young, just a young girl, she said, I started going to church. And she said, over the time, they asked me if I'd help out doing this, help out doing that, help out doing this. And she said, I started helping. And she said, then after a little while, they needed a Sunday school teacher, a helper in the Sunday school class. She said, I went in there and helped. When she stepped on off, she just said, hey, you take it. And so she said, I just took the class and I had never been saved. Never been saved. Sure enough, 49 years later, she's down over here begging God. She got up gloriously, wonderfully, miraculously, awesomely, tremendously saved. You, sir. Hey, man, I think I was, I don't know, 13 or something got saved that night. Hey, man, I've got a picture of it. Hey, man, they're all standing across you there. Hey, man, took a picture of them, all them that got saved. Have you seen it? Have you seen him? Oh, Brother Todd, been going to church here for a long time, I reckon, hadn't you? Amen. And then he went on vacation. Amen. Some old nut preacher come over here and started preaching. Amen. Somebody got their phone out. Amen. I reckon you was listening to it on the phone, wasn't you? Man, you'd think you'd had more sense than that. Amen. On vacation, listen to the crazy Tennessee preacher. But I sure am glad you did. And you saw it. Can you remember when you saw it? I can't even hardly, I just feel like eating that front pew, big man. When I think about Isaiah seeing that. Isaiah's sitting there and he's seeing it. Boy, at the beginning it didn't look good, Mason. When he first looked at it, what is that? But then by the time he got to the end of it, amen, he rolled him or scooted himself back from the table. He probably looked up with tears were flowing down his face, amen, and he started praising God, amen, for he knew, amen, that the Messiah he had just saw was the one that was going to save him. Does anybody know what Isaiah's name means? Salvation of Jehovah. Isn't that a pretty good name? Isaiah, Salvation of Jehovah. You reckon Isaiah 53 had anything to do with that? Did you see it? I'm gonna tell you what's gonna be awful now, and it's awful. That woman, 49 years of being religious, she told him, she said, I've known it for years. I was preaching for Brother Tracy Puckett this year, back earlier in the year. You know Tracy? I'm preaching for Brother Tracy Puckett down there, amen, in Conyers, Georgia. I'm closing out right here. Sure enough, I'm preaching, man, God is letting me saw it down. I'm talking about with a steel Husqvarna, amen, Ryobi, a home light, and all of them put together. And I'm sawing it down. And there's a lady sitting back there about where you're at, ma'am. Her husband's the deacon of the church. He's the song leader of the church. When I stopped and said every head bowed and every eye closed, boy, she comes squealing out there, 71 years old. She come running down through there, 71. She slid up down there in the altar. Everybody looked up and went, what? She'd been, they'd been going there for 50 something years. And she got up from there and turned around. Others had got saved. Several got saved that night. She got up and turned around. She said, I ain't going to hell for nobody. Y'all listen. She said, I was lost and I knew I was lost. But she said, all I could think was, what if I go get saved? What are they going to think? What's my husband going to think? What are they going to think if I go get saved and I'm the deacon's wife? So for years, she'd sit back there in that pew. She saw it. She saw Him. Have you seen Him? Do you remember when you seen Him? Amen. You remember when you've seen him. Because if you've not seen him, high and lifted up. Amen. You need to come. Amen. You need to bow down before him. Ask him to help you see it. Amen. Because except you believe the gospel now, and except you're born again, you're going to perish. Amen. Let's bow our heads together tonight. Amen. I'm going to ask one question before I turn it back over to the pastor. Amen. Every head bowed, every eye closed. I'm going to ask you a question real quickly.
