Isaiah 28: Christ Annuls the Drunkards’ Covenant with Death -- 2019/10/25 - a podcast by KFUO Radio

Rev. Warren Woerth, pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Arnold, Missouri, joins host Rev. AJ Espinosa to study Isaiah 28.

The language is harsh: God says that the current priests and prophets of Jerusalem are no better than retching and reeling drunks. And Ephraim, the city on a hill, is ripe for the picking—it will be devoured whole! For too long, the proud and powerful have mocked God’s prophets and spurned His Word. Now they will have to hear the word of the Assyrians, along with their volleys of arrows that rain like hail.Yet God uses the tools of destruction for the sake of the faithful remnant. Like a farmer with various tools for different tasks and crops, God works wisely to save His people from their “covenant with death” and their “agreement with Sheol.” He literally rescued Judah from an ensnaring alliance with Egypt; He spiritually saves us from sin, death, and the devil through Christ’s covenant-annulling death and covenant-creating resurrection.
