Comfort, yes, comfort My people!

‎"Comfort, yes, comfort My people!" Says your God. Speak comfort to Jerusalem, and cry out to her, that her warfare is ended, that here iniquity is pardoned; For she has received from the LORD'S hand double for all her sins" (Isaiah 401-2). After God said this, He added, "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the LORD" (Isaiah 40:3). Here God told us that, it is that voice in the wilderness who will enable us to know that our warfare against sins has ended, and that our sins have been pardoned. The voice in the wilderness spoke saying, "Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world" (John 1:29). The voice in the wilderness was the voice of God because he was sent by God to bear witness of the Light that all through him might believe (John 1:6). The work of the voice in the wilderness is to give us the knowledge of salvation by the remission of our sins, through the tender mercy of God, with which the Dayspring from on high has visited us. To give light to us who were formally sitting in darkness and the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace (Luke 1:77-79). Nobody can believe in Jesus properly without understanding the reason why God sent John the Baptist who was also filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb (Luke 1:15). This is an unchangeable truth. Whoever embraces the truth will be made free from sin. This truth is in Jesus.
