Jesus Refers
To The Prophecy Of Isaiah
A Private House In Capernaum
In Cana Jesus tarried not he went his way with his
disciples to
Now when Jesus heard
that John had been put in prison, He departed to Galilee. And leaving Nazareth,
He came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the regions of Zebulun
and Naphtali, that the word which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet might be
fulfilled.
The Prophecy Of Isaiah
Beside the Sea of Galilee, the Christian Master walked, and multitudes of
people followed Him. The fishing boats had just come in, and Peter and his brother
waited in their boats. Their helpers were ashore repairing broken nets. And
Jesus went into a boat and Peter pushed it out a little way from shore. And
Jesus standing in the boat spoke to the multitude. He said, “Isaiah, prophet of
the Lord of Hosts, looked forward and he saw this day. He saw the people
standing by the sea, and he exclaimed,
"The land of Zebulun and the land of
Naphtali,
By the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan,
Galilee of the Gentiles.
The people who sat in darkness have seen a great
light,
And upon those who sat in the region and
shadow of death
Light has dawned."
“And you are blest beyond all people of the earth today, because are among the first to see the light, and you may
become the children of the light.”
The People Who Sat In
Darkness
1.
Darkness means to spiritual blindness, ignorance and
laziness.
2.
It means lack of the knowledge of the Truth, worldwide
3.
Already, the Devil and his evil spirits and demons have
colonized the regions of the earth, overtaken humanity in multiple fronts, and
have hypnotized people that people no longer know the right things to do.
4.
Instead, people are evil in all their ways and are
breading more evils, and spreading the demonic and deadly influences all over
the world.
5.
It means that the antichrist and his wicked demons have
polluted every aspect of human endeavours, which include education, religion,
culture, commerce, society, politics etc.
For example, in culture, and by customs and traditions, every family
compound has idols and charms buried inside them, which causes business
failure, family crises, marriage breakups, promise and fail, wasted years,
untimely death, disease and pollutions.
In entertainments, the video industry pretends to entertain the society,
whereas they are everyday busy sowing all kind of evils in the hearts and mind
of the youths and children. Today, girls are wearing trousers and shorts, even
in public places, because the films actors and musicians introduced (started)
it and promoted the same.
People Has Seen A Great Light
1.
The great light refers to God Almighty, as a saviour in the person of Jesus Christ.
2.
God Himself shall shepherd His people in the end time,
just as He foretold it by prophet Ezekiel.
3.
The light means the presence of the Holy Spirit, the
powers of the holy spirit and the teachings of Truth,
which light shall become more and more manifest, from day to day.
4.
The same light refers to Spiritual Science, because only
the Holy Spirit can teach the truth about God and life. For a long time,
humanity neglected Spiritual Science. Therefore, they became lost to the
kingdom of heaven, which is their Father’s home, from where they came to the
world for a temporary stay.
In The Region And Shadow Of Death
In spirit, the earth with all its riches and glories is like a city of
darkness, the city of dead people, where dead people are moving about, without
knowing that they are already spiritually dead. Those people refer to humanity,
who are spiritually blind, ignorant and lazy.
People have so much neglected the spiritual dimension of life that:
1.
They are disconnected from heaven.
2.
They no longer believe it is possible to see God or live
a righteous life.
3.
They no longer know that they are spirits and sons of the
living God.
4.
Their spiritual eyes have closed up, such that they grope
about like blind men.
5.
The desires of the flesh have overtaking the thirst for
spiritual life and desire for heavenly kingdom.
6.
People now take the world as if it were a place for
permanent residence, and no longer a school for learning and a farm meant for
temporary stay.
7.
Region of darkness and shadow of death means dullness,
sluggishness, laziness and weakness. Compare these bad conditions of the earth
with heaven, wherein is liveliness, vitality, diligence and strength.
8.
Earthly money and wealth are the waste products from
heaven, which are used to test humanity.
