great article 👏
Dear Brother Chris
Thank you so very, very much for sharing the article of Israel’s Suffering Servant in Isaiah 53. I am extremely and very deeply interested in serving the Lord in ministry and in Jewish Missions and Evangelism Outreach Ministry. I rather serve than to be served by other people. I want to follow the example of my Blessed and Gracious Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in ministering the Gospel Message and in serving other people.
I have a deep love and compassion for people who are not saved and who are hurting and who are broken-hearted. I desire and I want to love people the way Jesus loves people and I want to share with the Truth of Gospel with them in a spirit of meekness and of humbleness. Again, thank you for sharing this article of Isaiah 53 and may God richly bless you and your family and your loved ones as well as your ministry and your outreach and your service of the Full and of the True Gospel Message and of the Good News of our dearest and precious and blessed and gracious and loving and merciful and awesome Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ to both to the Jewish People and to the Gentile People.
From your dearest and closest
Brother and Friend in Christ
