Isaiah One: A Message for the Church Today
Isaiah is called the gospel prophet, the prophet who brings the good news. It’s in the book of Isaiah that we find the beautiful description of the coming Messiah, who becomes a real human: For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders.
