Next week we begin a series of four lessons on the Bible itself.Today's lesson appropriately guides us to trust the Lord rather than the competitive false securities which so often attract men because of vain human pride.I. Trust IN men (isa. -3) In the days of Isaiah, when the peo ple in Jerusalem first began to sense the threat of enemy forces attacking their city, Isaiah began to warn the people against trusting in human strength.The people had seen what hap pened in Samaria to the north when the Northern Kingdom had trusted in human strength. The Assyrian army began to move against Samaria, the capital of northern Israel, and the kings sought all kind of alliances and treaties with Assyria and with Assyria's enemies in hopes of stem ming the tide of Assyrian might.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
