The parables of the lost coin and the lost sheep are stories that teach about God's love and repentance The parables describe how much God cares for the sinner and how much He wants them back. Jesus teaches that God seeks out sinners by grace to lead them to repentance. The parables do not teach that God accepts everyone's behavior The charge to Church members is to join those seeking diligently until the lost sheep and coins are found and to watch and wait with open arms and hearts for prodigals to return.

Being out of touch, not knowing where to turn. I’ve never had to experience
being lost in a new school, a new city. I’m the type of person who just jumps in.i believe it wold be a very bad situation. As I've gotten older I seem to be lost somewhat, I don't communicate with many people now so when I’m in a group of people I feel lost sometimes

For we are Gods workmanship (a gift), created in Christ Jesus to do good works [the result of our faith-response to God], which God prepared in advance for us to do”
God said we are the liht of the world, then let us shine the light on others

To be saved means to be rescued from something undesirable. In a spiritual sense, it means to be rescued from sin and its consequences, which include eternal punishment in hell To be saved, one must confess that they are a sinner and need a Savior, and believe in Jesus Christ as the one who died for their sins and gives them eternal life. Being saved does not mean being free from earthly troubles, but it does mean being seen as righteous in the eyes of God

Grace means that God showered favor and blessing on those who did not in any way deserve or earn it. They deserved His judgment and wrath. But He showed them favor. God’s pure grace gets polluted from two sides. On the one side, grace runs counter to the way the world works, so it’s difficult for us to grasp it and get used to it.
Sin demolishes grace
God is not expecting anything from us, just our love and worship,
We can’t make it to heaven on our ownGrace is like getting a present you don’t deserve. It’s a gift that someone gives you just because they love you.

that we should be holy and blameless before him; and in love
he predestined us for adoption to himself as sons through Jesus Christ,
God decided in advance to adopt us into his own family by bringing us to himself through Jesus Christ.

Satan knows our weak spots. He knows where we sin easily. He knows if we are tempted to pride; he knows if we are tempted to anger; he knows if we are tempted to be slothful—and he uses those weaknesses.
By not knowing God. By not submitting to the Holy Spirit as our teacher and guide.
The devil can convince you that religion in only important up to a point and that you don’t need to be zealous. You don’t need to put yourself out there for it

A person who is segregated from God is spiritually dead even though physically alive. Unless God intervenes such people live at the mercy of the devil and the cravings of their sinful nature. Only when God opens their eyes to the truth can people find salvation through faith in Jesus Christ and become spiritually alive.
As believers we should help the non-believers of God’s word and explain God’s plan
-
We would miss out on the opportunity of blessings with others, praying with others, the opportunity to grow and mature. We’d miss out on the Unity with Christ on studying and understanding the word.
We’d miss out on the fellowship and being with God

No faith in God
God's power is so great it cannot be measured or quantified. In this context, God's power is expressedTo have a deeper walk with God

I would put it to good use, help my family out
It would solve alot of my problems
Hebrews tells us that as a result of Christ's death, “those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance.” This inheritance is the “eternal salvation” and “eternal redemption” we heard about earlier in Hebrews 5:9 and 9:12.We will be together through it all

That we as believers will comprehend the blessings that are theirs in Christ. Their future hope. Gods inheritance in the saints and their power in Christ. The inheritance here is not the Christians inheritance but God’s. This indicates how precious his people are to God. they are so to speak what he looks toward to enjoying forever
Hope and eternityOur lives have changed because we have been promised eternal life
We have reason for hope, confidence, fulfillment
We have been called

A reminder of God’s Judgement

Those who rebel against God

God prohibits it because the people are only following rituals of building Him a temple but their hearts are not for him. God hates empty religious expressions.
A humble heart was missing, worship
66: 2 = a humble heart

The old heavens and earth will be destroyed. The new heavens and earth will be a new beginning for Jerusalem, the home of the righteousness. The old will be forgotten
A place to rejoice, no sin, no wars, no more sorrowv.19: No more will the sound of weeping be heard, nor the cry of distress. v 20: No premature death. v23: No more sudden terror or calamity.
Isaiah 65:24 “Before they call I will answer;while they are yet speaking I will hear.

They experienced God’s mercy in delivering them from Egypt and bringing them to the Promised Land. this kindness shows Isaiah that he can have faith in God to save his sinful people
Isaiah laments the long-standing patterns of sin among God’s people, like who is unclean, a polluted garment are all righteous acts. God will overlook our righteousness when we are sinful and unclean
God is our father
We can’t save ourselves, but our salvation comes only as a result of God’s grace.
-
The Jews will be righteous, honorable holy. They will be restored
Future blessings
Yes, Christians will be included.The watchman here seem to be looking for the return of the Lord in Jerusalem and will not rest until they see Him. people are urged to pray until this takes place. The original fulfillment, of course, was the return of the Jews from Babylon but the ultimate fulfillment will come when Messiah Jesus returns God promises peace and restoration to Jerusalem which we must continue to pray for in the Last Days.
Your Kingdom come You will be done.

Both were used, the Jews were in bondage and held prisoners in
Babylon which would be literally and the other people were held captive by their sins would be figurativelyTo bring comfort to those who needed it.
I’m trying I’ve just started my journal

When our hearts are tender toward the Lord, sin will bother us. It will make a tender heart uncomfortable in the presence of the Lord causing it to repent. Just as sinning clogs up your spirit and prevents prayer from flowing, repentance opens your spirit so that prayer can return.
Repentance separates us from God. He won’t hear us if we continue our sinsVerse 2 is talking about us the people
Sins create a barrier between God and his peopleIt can be corrected by praying
-
Honoring God by keeping his Sabbath.

Backbiting can create bad blood, enmity, discord, disquiet and evil among people and society. They cause hostilities between members of the same household and between neighbours and relatives.
At church encourage love among the congregation.
Don’t let someone talk about someone behind there backDonations of money, food, help
It woud look like we cared
-
not caring for the hungry, the homeless , the naked without clothes and members of once own family.
I don’t have time, i don’t have the resources
Tough love could make someone relize that they need help and will try to get help for themselves.
If you can’t try to do something for yourselves, why should others help you.Deprive them of things they need
