help prepare you for the false one's coming.
     The next verse is for those who stay true to Christ Jesus in His Word:

Isa 23:18    And her merchandise and her hire shall be holiness to the LORD: it shall not be treasured nor laid up; for her merchandise shall be for them that dwell before the LORD, to eat sufficiently, and for durable clothing.

     This is where "her" merchandise went, and the reason why it isn't bought anymore. It goes to God's elect who stay true on Christ Jesus, not worshipping the first supernatural one disguised as an "angel of light" coming to play Messiah.
     Some reading this that has not bothered to get into God's Word for them selves will not fully grasp that a false messiah is coming first, that is before our True Lord Jesus Christ's return. Too many of my Christian brethren are prepared to jump into spiritual bed with the first one coming who”...doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men."

Rev.13:13: And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men."

 

They are so in love with man's babblings of a flesh 'antichrist' that they can't separate God's Truth from the lie. To believe on the first one coming, which will be 'a spurious messiah', is to accept "a lie" of "strong delusion" God has prepared for those who put their trust in other things, instead of Him through His Son's Word.

 

 2 Thessalonians 2:11. And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.

 

That's right! The latter days are a test for some. God loves those who love Him, but He expects His to listen to Him, and to love 'His Truth'; not man's watered down version of The Truth. If you've been with me thus far in these Isaiah studies, and have also taken the time to 'check' me out per Holy Writ, then you should be well prepared in your 'faith' on Christ Jesus to a much greater degree possibly than before. There shouldn't be any doubts in your mind that God's Word reveals a false messiah coming first. You 'know' what the "lie" and "strong delusion" really is, and from God's Word, not mine.
     The next Isaiah Chapter will begin what some call 'the Apocalypse of Isaiah'. It is another view of the Book of Revelation events which Christ Jesus gave to us through His beloved Apostle John.

Peace and blessings to you in Christ Jesus,
Dave Ramey.
