“J.
C. R.,” Bradford. We do not exactly see how
Isaiah 53:10-11
10
Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the Lord shall prosper in his hand.
11
He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities. (Isaiah 53:10‑11)
, or
John 12:31
31
Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. (John 12:31)
, can be applied to the conversion of
the world by the preaching of the gospel. The former simply teaches that “many” should be justified through the knowledge of Christ as bruised for their iniquities. The latter teaches us that Christ, as lifted up on the cross, should draw all unto Him; in other words, that the Christ who was dead should be the only center or gathering point for His people. In neither passage is there a word about the conversion of the world.
