3) Isaiah saw the Majestic Lord
4) Isaiah saw the Sovereign Lord – the Lord of Hosts
5) Isaiah saw the Beauty of the Lord – Beautiful in Holiness

Second: A Great Brokenness
1) Sin Ruins Us
• Sin is our failure to obey God
• Sin is our failure to glorify & honour Him in all we do
• It’s our failure to love God w heart soul mind & strength

• Sin is an act of both indifference & unbelief toward God

• Isaiah 66:2
• Isaiah 51:17

Third: A Gracious Forgiveness…
• Christ’s death Atones for His people’s sin
• Christ’s death Satisfied God’s Justice
• Christ’s death Declares God’ Grace
• Christ’s death Displays Gods Love working toward us
• See God’s Glory and know how sinful you & I are
• Grieve and be Broken over your sin
• Confess your sin to God, agreeing w/ Him re sin
• Cry out to God for forgiveness, He will give it
• Trust God to keep His promises in His Word…
