Dr. Bingham’s Lesson for May 30, 2010
Guest speaker: Christopher Graham
“Flowers & the Brevity of Life” – Isaiah 40:6-8, 12, 21-26, 18-20, 27-31;
James 1:10-11
Isaiah divides into two sections:
I. 1-39 — Judgement & Doom
II. 40-66 — Books of Comfort
Throughout scripture flowers are the metaphor for brevity of life.
The remedy for brevity is to focus on the everlasting and all-powerful nature of God.
