ISAIAH 59:14 AND JUSTICE WAS FORCED TO MOVE BACK, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS ITSELF KEPT STANDING SIMPLY FAR OFF. FOR TRUTH HAS STUMBLED EVEN IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE AND WHAT IS STRAIGHTFORWARD IS UNABLE TO ENTER.
15:AND THE TRUTH PROVES TO BE MISSING, AND ANYONE TURNING AWAY FROM BADNESS IS BEING DESPOILED.
AND JEHOVAH GOT TO SEE, AND IT WAS BAD IN HIS EYES THAT THERE WAS NO JUSTICE
16: AND WHEN HE SAW THAT THERE WAS NO MAN HE BEGAN TO SHOW HIMSELF ASTONISHED THAT THERE WAS NO ONE INTERPOSING
These scriptures to me shows Jehovahs heartfelt concern and astonishment as to the goings on within his house of worship.
JUSTICE WAS FORCED TO MOVE BACK:
The moral principle determining just conduct,to administer just punnishment or reward.To uphold moral rightnesss in dealings with law by judicial office or court justice.
Vindication of appropriate penalty or reward given.
The only true justice is from our father Jehovah God, and what he taught from his word was FORCED to move back, having no choice in the matter, that is how corrupt his house has become.
RIGHTEOUSNESS ITSELF KEPT STANDING SIMPLY FAR OFF.
Integrity, purity, correctness and virtue approved by God.
Jehovahs righteosness in his own house is so far off it cant be seen, the guilty are proven rightious, while the innocent are condemed.
FOR TRUTH HAS STUMBLED EVEN IN THE PUBLIC SQUARE:
Honesty, good faith, sincerity, integrity and justice.
How sad to see that the crimes which have been commited within Jehovahs house is now spoken about in public places, child abuse and injustices, have stumbled many who at one time looked to the witnesses with high standing.
WHAT IS STRAIGHT FORWARD IS UNABLE TO ENTER:
Those who Jehovah hears the prayers of are directed by holy spirit to his house of worship, those of good hearts, yearning for comfort from gods word, they find it hard to enter as they see the lack of faith, honesty and love which stands as a barrier at its entrance.
TRUTH SEEMS TO BE MISSING?
"Know the truth and the truth shall set you free" no wonder Jehovahs people feel in bondage because the truth of Jehovah is missing, if the truth is missing all thats left is lies. "Seems" gives a little hope, its there but concealed its, not visable to those who truely need it when justice is required.
AND ANYONE TURNING AWAY FROM BADNESS IS BEING DISPOILED:
To strip of belongings or posessions?
Individuals make sacrifices for the truth, some a complete turn around from Drug addictions, Alcohol addictions, sex addictions give up celebrations and lose friends and family along the way, but they do this for the love of the truth which they searched for. But only to find that their new hard earnt personality will be slowly stripped away and their only real valuable posession they ever required in their life which was their faith, was pulled from under them, completely stripped of anything worthy, left more desolate than before.
AND JEHOVAH GOT TO SEE THAT IT WAS BAD IN HIS EYES THAT THERE WAS NO JUSTICE:
Its a serious thing to come under the judgement of Jehovah, a god who is so merciful and forgiving, to suggest there is no justice, his laws nolonger exist, they are a law unto themselves. In his own eyes not from mans point of view that it was bad, so we know its a very serious situation to be in.
AND WHEN HE SAW THAT THERE WAS NO MAN HE BEGAN TO SHOW HIMSELF ASTONISHED THAT THERE WAS NO ONE INTERPOSING:
I bet theres very little which "astonishes" Jehovah, yet his own house has become an astonishment not of good but of badness in Jehovahs eyes. Where are the appointed men he set in place over his flock? where are the men upholding justice? who are the ones going to court in righteousness? Where are the men who take care of the widows, the elderly and the fatherless boy. Not one man is interposing, because they have all become blind, they forgot the eyes salve that Jesus spoke of, and hearts have become callous, ears have become deaf and turned away from goodness. There truely is no one standing on behalf of Jehovah within his own house of worship, how sad is that.
