(Lesson 1496)(11-08-15) Matthew 4:12-16
"Now when Jesus had heard that John was cast into prison, he departed into Galilee; And leaving Nazareth, he came and dwelt in Capernaum, which is upon the sea coast, in the borders of Zabulon and Nephthalim: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles; The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up."
In today's quote, Jesus fulfilled Esaias' prophecy and presented Himself as a "great light" to all those in the region of Zabulon and Nephthalim.
Jesus offered great hope to the lost then just as he does today. All one need do is accept the cleansing power of His Holy Ghost through faith in Him
