(ESV)\n\n        Isaiah has given us a picture of God's rich grace, love, and\n   mercy as found in Jesus Christ.  Isaiah calls each of us to be in\n   God's presence, to receive the fullness of His promises, and to\n   have the hope of everlasting life.  This invitation is for all\n   people.\n\n        However, the invitation may not always be available.  Isaiah\n   warns us:\n        Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him\n        while he is near; let the wicked forsake his way, and\n        the unrighteous man his thoughts; let him return to the\n        LORD, that he may have compassion on him, and to our\n        God, for he will abundantly pardon.\n\n\n        You and I do not know the future.  There will come a time\n   when we no longer are able to hear of God's grace, when we can no\n   longer take advantage of the invitation to His heavenly banquet.\n   For some people, the government actively surpresses the good news\n   of salvation from sin and death for the sake of Christ Jesus.\n   For all people, on an unknown day, we will depart this life.  For\n   whatever reason, the invitation cannot be heard, the invitation\n   is not available.\n\n        Today is the day to hear of God's love, to know of His\n   mercy, to accept the forgivess of sins offered to you by the\n   suffering, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  Tomorrow our\n   Lord may not be near to you.\n\n        May our heavenly Father grant that we hear His invitation,\n   that we accept His mercy, and know of the hope of life\n   everlasting.  Amen.<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>October 17, 2024 Broadcast<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2421","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-turn-your-radio-on-2024"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2421","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2421"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2421\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2422,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2421\/revisions\/2422"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2421"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2421"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/trinityslayton.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2421"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
