The Sinner's Responsibility
Isaiah 50:1-3
Thus said the LORD, Where is the bill of your mother's divorce, whom I have put away?…


I. THE SINNER'S MISERABLE CONDITION.

1. Separated from God.

2. Sold under sin.

II. THE OCCASION OF IT. Not the will of God, but his own love of sin, and his consequent disregard of God's offers of deliverance from sin and sorrow.

(J. Lyth, D.D.)
