Isaiah 53:6
All we like sheep have gone astray;
we have turned every one to his own way;
and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
ALL - everybody...you and me.
WE - this even includes Isaiah, who authored 1,262 verses that are in today's Bible.
LIKE SHEEP - ever think of sheep, except to count them to get to sleep? Not important animals, not
so smart, no claws or fangs, and kind of stinky. That sounds like "we all"!
HAVE GONE ASTRAY WE HAVE TURNED EVERY ONE TO HIS OWN WAY- sinned, lied, cheated, lusted, prideful,
jealous....need I go on?
AND THE LORD - God the Father's abundant mercy provides for us to be born again
HATH LAID ON HIM - Jesus lived a perfect life and therefore was able to take our punishment for our
lies, cheating, lusting, pride, jealously....
THE INIQUITY OF US ALL - God offers you a clean slate...take it or don't. Eternity with God is
all that's at stake.
