Jesaja 40:1-2 - Suiwer evangelie!

<strong>Isaiah 40:1-2 - Pure gospel!</strong><br /> This article endeavours to analize Isaiah 40:1-2 in such a way that ministers who are experiencing difficulties in preaching the Old Testament might find in it some guidelines on a workable way in which sections of the Old Testament could be analized with the purpose of making a sermon about it. The method employed consists of four steps, namely a general orientation, a synchronic analysis, a diachronic analysis and a reception-critical analysis. The results show that Isaiah 40:1-2 is pure gospel! It speaks in no way less than the New Testament about God’s redemption of the sinner through his grace alone
