The Condition Of The Vineyard
Let us muse again today from Isaiah 5:1-5 and the theme of Isaiah’s Christ. We’re looking today at the sifting Christ and the condition of the vineyard. We have found the vineyard to be the church within the church. I see in our text today the vineyard has been designed for success. In verse one it was designed as a fruitful hill which is a term of reproduction. In verse two it was fenced in which was a hedge of protection. I see also in verse two the stones were removed which are those things that would hinder its growth. In verse two it was planted with the most choice vines chosen by the vineyard owner. There was a tower and a winepress in the middle such a picture of the crucified Christ. The church within the church of today has been designed for success. Are we accomplishing what we were designed to do?
