ISAIAH 5:7-9
For the vineyard of the LORD of hosts is the house of Israel, And the men of Judah are His pleasant plant. ----- This speaks to God’s people
He looked for justice, but behold, oppression; ----- religion oppresses the poor, makes widows
For righteousness, but behold, a cry for help. ----- spiritual earthquakes and distress in the land
Woe to those who join house to house ----- woe to those who build church, make up religion
They add field to field, ----- build bigger churches, larger assemblies all in the name of God
Till there is no place ----- church becomes a burden of activities, not meditation and prayer
Where they may dwell alone in the midst of the land! ----- no place left for intimacy with God
In my hearing the LORD of hosts said,“Truly, many houses shall be desolate, ----- God makes these churches desolate w/o the Spirit
