THAT WHICH THEY HAVE NOT HEARD

Behold, My Servant shall deal wisely and shall prosper.
He shall be exalted and shall stand very high.
For many the Servant of God became an object of horror.
Many were astonished at Him. His face and His whole
appearance were marred more than any man’s, and His
form beyond that of the sons of men- but just as many
were astonished at Him.
So shall he startle and sprinkle many nations, and kings
shall shut there mouths because of Him; for that which
has not been told them shall they see, and that which they
have not heard shall they consider and understand.
(Isaiah 52.13-15).
Even as my preaching has been accompanied with the power of signs
and wonders, and all of it by the power of the Holy Spirit. The result is
that starting from Jerusalem and as far round as Illyricum, I have fully
preached the Gospel (Best News Ever), faithfully carrying out to the full
the good news of Christ (the Messiah) in its entirety.
Thus my ambition has been to preach the Gospel (Best News Ever), not
where Christ’s name has already been known, lest I build on another man’s
foundation;
But instead I would act on the principle as it is written, They shall see who
have never been told of Him, and they shall understand who have never heard
of Him.
(Romans 15.19-21).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
