Isa Msg 34

Truth:
1. His robe is the first main item in the scene in Ch 6 because it fills the temple. The second item is the temple being filled with smoke. The third item is the seraphim.
2. The divine glory is signified by the smoke, holiness is signified by the seraphim, and the Lord's human virtues are signified by the train of His robe.
3. Human virtues depend upon righteousness.
4. The seraphim calling to each other signifies their fellowship with each other, indicating that they signify or represent the holiness of Christ.
5. Christ is expressed in His human virtues much more than in His divine glory.
6. Christ was wearing a long robe in this vision. This means that Christ's humanity is "long."
7. The glory filling the earth is universal, and the robe filling the temple is local.
8. A righteous person is a sanctified person.
9. Isaiah was sent by Christ to a people who were short of the divine glory, were violating the divine holiness, and were corrupt in the human virtues. He was sent by the Lord to lead Israel to express Christ's divine glory in His human virtues held in His holiness.
10. Righteousness is the base, the foundation, of God's salvation.

Life experience/Application:
1. To live Christ is to express Christ's divine glory in His holiness with His righteousness.
