Who has believed our message?

Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord
been revealed?
He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to
him,
nothing in his appearance that we
should desire him.
He was despised and rejected by men,
a man of sorrows, and familiar with
suffering.
Like one from who men hide their faces
he was despised, and we esteemed him
not.
Surely he took up our infirmities
and carried our sorrows,
yet we considered him stricken by God,
smitten by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was
upon him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to his own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah 53:1-6 Old Testament Bible
A prophesy of Christ written centuries
before he was born.There are more verses
to this chapter. No other person in history
could have possibly fit this description or
fullfilled the requirements of this great
saving king of humanity..Well worth the
investigation.. thank you..

Well my dear, as you know he was crucified because people couldn't believe He was the Son of God. He was a threat to so many powerful people during that time. People believed in what they see. But God is invisible like the wind, like gravity that's why it's not easy to believe. But we see His creation. Thanks for this sublime write. Blessings!angel2 angel2 daisy teddybear
