Isaiah 53:4; Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. v5; But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. Wounds closed! Now why, “SELF INFLICTED WOUNDS?” When he’s not acknowledged, Romans 1:21; Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. v28; And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. Not convenient verses are stated in v29-31. v32; Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. Example; 2 Timothy 3:7; Ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. v8; Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith. When you think your way is equal too God’s way. Now why, “SELF INFLICTED WOUNDS?” 2 Chronicles 7:14; If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. v15; Now mine eyes shall be open, and mine ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. That place, 1 Peter 5:6; Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. Now why, “SELF INFLICTED WOUNDS?” 2 Corinthians 4:7; But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. “SELF INFLICTED WOUNDS!” Teaching!
