Isaiah 6:8--- Then I heard the
voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send ? Who will go for us ?” I
said, “ Here I am. Send me!”
New International
Version (NIV)
The question that lingers, and has lingered for many ages is “ Who will go?” This question has presently awakened many, yet
there are many who still wait on the sidelines for others to take the necessary
actions. We see that the areas of social
growth are still based on the many moral half truths, recreational
titillations, and the soothing of ‘itching ears’.
The Scripture Isaiah 6:8, was written over a thousand years ago.
The Truth of the verse is still very much as effective today as then. When we
prepare ourselves with the fullness of the Word of God, we amaze the listeners
to a point that the facts are gathered like ripe grapes, and put to productive
use. The amazement is not always
positive. Some take the grapes and tread angrily on them because the taste is too
difficult to savor.
In my answer to the important question concerning going, I refer
to the response that Isaiah gave above. The one’s who
will go, are the few, who diligently study, discipline themselves to the point
of limitation, and prepare their entire selves for the mission. Future society
will only listen to the
teachers, guides, and ministers, who are prepared to convey the
‘Truth, Reality, and the Wisdom’ that has been experienced, and proven. The cost of this evolution with ‘mankind’
still is paid for with the determination, sweat, tears, and blood, of the *True
Students and Disciples* of today .
So in ending this I also ask “ Who will go ?”
