“You are precious in my eyes and I love you” – God (Isaiah 43:4)
That is one of the most tender verses in all of Scripture. Yet this assurance was spoken to Israel in one of the most severe trials of her national life, or lack thereof, as exiles in Babylon. And God’s assurance of love and favor to disgraced Israel goes deeper still; Fear not…I love you…and you shall be my witnesses. In the appearance of the resurrected Christ we behold the love of God that drives out all fear. And all who bask in the light, joy and freedom of the love of God, will testify that there is no God like our God! This sermon was preached by Clay Thompson for the scattered saints of St Jude’s Anglican Church in Huntersville, NC.
