isaiah

some interesting thoughts on prophets from the message:

- they delivered God's commands and promises and living presence to communities and nations who had been living on god-fantasies and god-lies.

- the sixteen Hebrew prophets (isaiah - malachi) provide the help we so badly need if we are to stay alert and knowledgeable regarding the conditions in which we cultivate faithful and obedient lives before God.

- for the prophets, God is more real than the next-door neighbor.
