Lesson for November 27
ISAIAH TEACHES TRUE WORSHIP
LESSON TEST—Isa. 1:1-20.
GOLDEN TEXT—O magnify the
Lord with me and let us exalt his
name together. I saw the Lord and
he heard me and delivered me from all
my fears.
PRIMARY TOPIC—Worshiping God.
JUNIOR TOPIC—Worship That
Pleases God.
INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP-
IC—Worship That Pleases God.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP-
IC—The Nature of True Worship.
Isaiah had a long ministry, begin-
ning in the days of Uzziah and ex-
tending through the reign of Jothan,
Ahaz and Hezekiah. Eor a history of
the nation in this time see II Kings,
chapters 15 to 20. Isaiah’s visions
present the redemptive purpose of God
through the consummation of Mes-
siah’s kingdom. Chapter 1 is the title
to the whole book. It contains the
great arraignment of the people for
.their sins.
I. The Moral State of the People
!w. 2-4).
1. Filial Ingratitude (v. 2).
, The universe is summoned to hear
the Lord’s complaint against Judah
and Isiael for their base ingratitude.
2. Brutal stupidity (v. 3).
The ox and the ass are proverbially
stupid, but Israel’s stupidity exceeded
theirs. Israel would not recognize
His right as sovereign, nor author of
mercies.
3. Habitual evil doers (v. 4).
They were not sinners in act merely,
but in nature and heart were laden
with iniquity. By heredity they passed
their vices from generation to genera-
tion.
II. Their Consequent Miseries (vv.
5-9).
1. Their perplexity (v. 5).
Chastisement only hardened them.
Their afflictions were followed by
deeper and more heinous sins.
2. Their awful confusion (v. 6).
The calamity which befell them ex-
tended to all classes. No one was
able to minister to their comfort.
3. Desolations in the country (vv.
T, 8).
Revolts from within and Invasions
from without left their country
desolate. Physical ruin always fol-
s moral and spiritual decadence.
'A'-raTbCrTUrmitlWuRSured iv. 9).
God’s purposes cannot fail. A rem-
nant was saved in Israel—a remnant
shall be saved in the church.
III. Formal Worship Rebuked (w.
10-15).
Their awful calamities were not due
to the neglect of religioup rites and
ceremonies. They punctiliously ob-
served the forms of religion while in-
dulging in iniquitous practices.
1. God does not need sacrifices
(v. ID.
Worship and service are not for
God’s benefit, but for that of the wor-
shipers themselves.
2. God’s attitude toward formal
worship (vv. 12-14).
The very rites and ceremonies which
God ordained for the purpose of help-
ing men to approach Him become dis-
gusting and irksome to Him.
3. God’s refusal (v. 15).
Every act of worship while the
heart and life are steeped with in-
iquity only incites the anger of the
Holy One.
IV. An Amended Life God's Re-
quirement (vv. 16-20).
Though the nation had so grievous-
ly sinned, their case was not hopeless.
In order to enjoy that mercy there
must be:
1. A cleansing.
“Wash you, make you clean.” The
washing by water symbolized the
cleansing by the blood of the Son of
God.
2. “Put away the evil of your do-
ings.”
There could be no cleansing while
continuing in sin.
3. “Cease to do evil.”
4. “Learn to do well” (v. 17).
One can only cease to do evil by
i| learning to do well,
j 5. “Seek judgment.”
One must not only be upright him-
self but should protest against the
J wrongdoing of others. Burdens
$ should be removed from the op-
ij pressed. Justice should be done to
' the fatherless and the widows should
* be befriended.
J 6. Encouragement to come to God
I1 (v. 18).
J Though their guilt was great and
the judgment which befell them was
awful, God’s pardoning and cleansing
grace were sufficient.
7. Conditional promise (v. 19).
This means that they could only en-
joy good on God’s terms.
8. Solemn warning (v. 20).
Rebellion against God brings ruin.
Religion
, Trusting God with a sincere and
jj open heart, ready to obey what He
suggests, asking His guidance, and
ready to take it, believing in Him and
| simply trusting life to Him—that is
religion.—James Reid.
Cost of Discipleship
Christ tells us to count the cost of
discipleship, but He never asks us to
count the gain. He knew we could
not; there is no arithmetic to com-
pute that—VV. L. Watkinson.
“With Eddie Cantor I say
Luckies never irritate the throat”

Claire Luce and Frances
Upton during a rehearsal
of The Ziegfeld Follies•

bit of bite.
Eddie Cantor,
Famous Comedian,
writes:
“My voice must he in
condition 365 nights a
year and when I smoke,
1 insist upon Lucky
Strikes because I found
from experience that
they don’t irritate my
throat”
