Paul declared, “Brethren, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved” (Romans 10:1Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.

[3] For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:

Yet, a greater love than this was described by the prophet Isaiah.  He spoke of a man who was “despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not” (Isaiah 53:3He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

But this man did not suffer for his own sins but for our sins.  “Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.  But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned everyone to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all: (Isaiah 53:4-6 [4] Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. [5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. [6] All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

The prophecy of this chapter does not fit Isaiah nor anyone else in the history of the world except Jesus Christ.  Jesus is truly the anointed one; the Messiah of Israel.  Whether you receive him or not, I will still love you.  My love is not based on you having my faith.  But, oh, how I wish you could know the peace that comes by believing in Jesus!  Will you at least consider him?
