Isaiah, Part 01 | Background to Isaiah

[@tdzenda]

Dr James Tour on fire for Christ.

[@BruteDuke]

Hey Dr. Tour, as an undergrad BioChem major, just want to say that you have been heavily inspirational to my faith for the past year. Very cool now that you're doing bible study type things with Galatians and now this. Love learning the word from a scientific mind behind it.

[@stanley1554]

Amen 🙏 we need more vocal voices of believers in science

[@tonycoker6523]

Dr Tour has a great wealth of Knowledge and has a way to relate this to the lay person . God has really blessed him and may he continue the good work.

[@MR-G-Rod]

University is where people lose their faith in the lord. Not this time, not today, not for you! At the end of the Bible, the New Jerusalem is a giant city that comes down from heaven to earth….how? A floating city? Maybe it’s saying technology, science, is aimed toward following Christ instead aiming at each other with bioweapons and nukes.

[@wendyreiser4466]

How wonderful to read your message in relation to Dr Tour’s teaching ✝️🙏✝️

[@stanley1554]

​@@wendyreiser4466 He is a remarkable human being, and he has done SOO much for my faith by unraveling the brainwashing that secular society has imposed on me through school and popular culture (I'm referring to the whole myth about evolution)

[@maryseaman312]

My mother told me many times that if she could only have two books from the Bible, she would choose Isaiah and Romans. The first time I read Romans through, I saw immediately why she would choose Romans - - it is a logical presentation of the power of God to provide salvation to us through Jesus Christ. Isaiah was a bit harder for me to grasp, at first, why she would have chosen Isaiah. By the time I got through it the first time I actually read through Isaiah, I understood it was more than a prophetic book, which it most definitely, but as the Lord worked in my heart and mind, I SAW the LOVE that God has had all along for not only Israel, but also for all Gentiles (of which, I am). And, then I understood why mom loved Isaiah and Romans so much! My mother explained the difference between my brain and how God reasons things out by quoting Isaiah 55 many times. What a GEM! both my mother and Isaiah.

[@tammymullins1151]

Yes and amen to your mother. Two of my favorites as well

[@iconiclust]

Wow! Never thought I’d be learning about Isaiah from a Jewish scientist! 😱 Thank you sir. For being brave, and true to the Call. The light that shines through you inspires us to seek the Source. May God keep you in The Path. ❤️

[@heathm2330]

Dr. Tour I have been blessed by your Bible study which is better I think than most Pastors I've heard. God bless you!

[@zacharyhoffman3968]

Please continue this work. I have read Isaiah but your commentary and passion for the Word is alluring. Wish I could subscribe twice

[@richardmcmichael9329]

I’m a Jewish Christian in Dundee in Scotland..I Require Prayer..Fruit is coming ..I need. More Workers called of God….bless James …and his Maturity and Authority in Christ

[@anima-scribentis]

Listen to the right youtubers as Dr Tour and Bishop Barron, read the Bible online or in the Book and go to the Church on Sunday,...find preachers who can teach you...but if you like science and faith here you are at the right address. God gives you His Light.

[@johnoshea284]

Thank God for finding James Tour. He brought me back to God

[@he729gtd61]

so great!!

[@julesverne2509]

Well I figured I'd might as well start at Part 01. I only just discovered Dr. Tour just a month or two ago. How it took me that long is beyond me. I'm certainly thankful I have now though and I tell everyone I know about him. I mean the type of content I like and spend most my time watching..... Dr. Tour should have been suggested to me YEARS ago.

[@bradyjuneau9199]

I love that you love as much as you do!! Thank you sooooooooooo, much, for your walk , It is like a fire, May I witness the LORDs hand on you, As you are in your march!, while you keep us all looking at our King, Or LORD, Jesus , and the Holy Spirit . Thank you for the living witness, the deed and the word are in agreement. Thank you LORD for the blessings you have given us all who benefit from your creation ,Father, good work ! Amen !

[@juliareynolds7970]

Heartfelt thanks, Dr Tour, for your apologetics ministry and this teaching of Isaiah. I've only just come across it and am looking forward to the rest of the series. I am also a Jewish believer in Y'shua. What a privilege that is! May the Lord watch over you and your family and continue to use you to edify the body of Christ and to reach the lost.

[@geraldshearon7264]

I love your ending! Praise Jesus!

[@jonmanuelreyes7588]

This man is on fire, very passionate. Clearly holy spirit driven

[@anima-scribentis]

He has the heart of the Holy Spirit the fire 🔥 of really Christians...so our blood won't become water ...if our genetics of many generations was Christians so also we as their descendants will become Christians too and work for God is a mission of life. Christ bless you Dr. Tour.

[@AlexanderosD]

Thank you Dr Tour! I love your heart for sharing Jesus with anyone and everyone. 😊

[@FA18_Driver]

You have the Mind and Heart of Christ and it radiates from ye. I found you today. From the Orthodox tradition, thank you Doctor.

[@timbat4899]

Dr Tour, Appreciate you, your testimony and ministry so much. Looking forward to listening and learning from you sharing Isaiah. I so love His word and it always encourages me when I find peers who love to read and study it. Have enjoyed you sharing your scientific findings and know God has set you apart for this unique work and research proving what He said is true and correct. May the Lord prosper you professionally as He also prospers your soul.

안녕하세요~ 박사님 이곳은 한국의 세종시 입니다. 처음 박사님의 간증을 듣고 큰 감동을 받았고 박사님의 삶과 마음과 생각속에 계시는 하나님을 알고 싶다는 강렬한 이끌림으로 여기 이사야 말씀까지 들으러 왔습니다. 이사야 말씀이 나에게 하나님께서 주시는 말씀으로 생각하고 무엇이든 순종해보려 합니다. 생명과학자인 남편이 박사님의 하나님를 들어보길 기도합니다. 이스라엘이 평안해지길 항상 기도하고 있습니다. 이스라엘이 있음은 하나님의 살아계심을 알리시는 것이고 세상이 이스라엘을 귀히 여기도 사랑하길 원합니다. 그어느 나라도 사람들도 이스라엘을 함부로 대하지 않길 원합니다. 말씀을 들으며 제자신이 새로워지실 소망합니다. 건강하세요 감사합니다.

[@conectateconlapalabra8756]

God bless you. I am overjoyed and excited about this study of a book that fascinates me deeply. When I saw you were leading this study, I knew I had to join in. I’d like to share an experience I had with the Lord regarding the book of Isaiah. A few years ago, I had a dream that I remember as vividly as if it happened yesterday. In the dream, I was sitting in a living room when suddenly, I received visitors: a woman and an elderly man. My husband was also there, and we started talking about missions. The woman mentioned the Dominican Republic, and I told her my husband had visited there. I expressed my desire to visit Guatemala. The elderly man, who had long white hair, blue eyes, and a face full of wrinkles, sat beside me. He asked if I had read the book of Isaiah, to which I replied yes. He then told me to read it again and start writing about it, adding that he would return to ask what I had written. I woke up and shared the dream with my husband. I began rereading the book of Isaiah and writing about the first chapter. I was amazed to find that you and I had been revealed the same insights. I revisited my notes and saw that we both emphasized that God is depicted as a judge in the first chapter, with the heavens and earth as witnesses to the people’s wickedness. This study confirms to me that God indeed revealed His will to me in that dream. The book of Isaiah is profound and poetically rich, making it somewhat challenging to understand. I only reached chapter 5 in my study, but I am thrilled to continue this journey with you.

[@bnato8209]

This is such a complicated book and I am looking forward to your videos and I love your fervor for the Lord Jesus Christ who is both King and Lord of all. Bless you brother Tour!!

[@rajansomanathan7517]

God Bless you Dr. James Tour for your wonderful effort. I am an avid watcher of all your videos. God is using you in a very great way. Just keep up the good work.

[@stephen2975]

How great to have a teacher that loves his subject.

[@rlm9093]

Thank you Dr. Tour. I so appreciate your passion and instruction in the Bible. Bless you.

[@davidybarra7713]

Yes he is on fire for Christ this is so wonderful I wish I had the strength like him to and the knowledge to be able to preach the gospel to people also we need more people like him he is an inspiration to me and I'm sure other people

[@davidybarra7713]

Isaiah is my favorite too Isaiah puts out every single thing that puts a whole picture together it is so wonderful the way he says everything makes so much sense about Jesus and what he's going to do and about God and the whole history I mean he saw everything and I just love that did my favorite I always at least every couple of months read the whole entire Isaiah and love to study it because it is fantastically true.

[@harveybarham]

The fact that you can engage in vigorous scientific debate-and do it so well--and then turn around and teach sacred scripture is more then impressive. Thanks for all that you do Dr Tour. It’s a blessing.

[@geraldshearon7264]

Wicked child murdering King Manassah later repented. If God can forgive Him, who can He not save? Some say the God of OT is cruel. King Mannasseh's life proves that to be a shameful lie.

[@TeacherZia-m2o]

Thank you, Dr. James for this beautiful teaching. You are a gift from the Lord. May the blessings of our Father be your portion always.

[@SB-kc4qd]

Thank you Dr.Tour , for what you do and all the effort for his glory

[@amberwishon]

You are incredible! ❤ love that you care so much about saving souls!

Thank you Dr. James Tour for your hard work. I'm from Vietnam and I'm admire your works and passion for God and Bible study which helped me a lot in defending my faith from my self-doubt and others. God bless you and your family!

[@Bijinstraightstudio]

Dr Tour is a blessing to us from God. His delivery and brilliance, along with his truely passionate love of Yeshua is a beacon of light and love such as we all all should be, as Christians, for the world. Dr Tour walks with G_d amd epitomizes the instruction of Jesus.

[@TimSignin]

This is so good! Thank you my Lord Jesus!

[@michaelferguson1396]

I am excited to go through Isaiah with you - I’ve been wanting to go in depth in Isaiah for a few years now. 37:11

[@christinas4487]

This is really great. I’ve learned so much listening to Dr. Tour. Thank you sincerely.

[@marisolmagana9644]

I am absolutely astonished by the passion of this man!!!

[@owensullivan252]

Dr. Tour you bless us with this teaching and with your genuine, beautiful passion.

[@he729gtd61]

What a brilland mind shows us how perfect the Word of God is the sctiptures.

[@chriss6321]

Dr James Tour, just the way you appear speaks of your authentic scriptural knowledge. No beards, a low hairstyle cut, a befitting necktie nill flumboyancy. Am just hearing this first time and am contented with you. Your courageous call for salvation is inspiring what boldness!! Thank you sir You have made my day sir. Looking forward to learn more from this platform.

[@TomRumbaugh]

As much as I love your apologetics work, I love these lessons more.

[@csmac3144a]

Bless you, Dr. Tour. I believe you are a humble instrument of our Lord. You are helping to bring the Light into the lives of many people.

[@marilynnoosterhof1853]

Thank you .... I'm really looking forward to the rest.

[@Fieldsofflowers777]

Looking forward to hearing more of this

[@carmenmarcinkiewicz7149]

Dr. Tour, you are an INCREDIBLE teacher!!!! I am so blessed to have found your channel!!! God has poured His favor upon you, may He continue to do so.

[@JohnVegas]

God bless you Dr. Tour. Isaiah is my special book also. This is great!

[@mooshiro9035]

Doctor thank you for living your faith in two worlds; the scientific and logical and spiritual and metaphysical. Your videos are very encouraging! God bless.

[@tj_12345]

Thank You for this Background on Isaiah ! Please continue this series.

[@coreyfleig2139]

I will personally pay you to teach *all* the way through Isaiah!! Please keep this up. You are loved in Christ!

[@FrankPCarpi]

I love Dr. James Tour. A Jewish believer in Yeshua Messiah and a brilliant mind as a real scientist is so rare to find. There are several godly Christian scientists, and many of tgem participate in creation evangelism, but to find a Jew who does all of that is extremely rare for now. I pray that every Jew finds belief in the resurrected Son of God before He returns in the clouds to take the Bride home.

[@zbigniewbonder9415]

My hero Brother James Tour. God bless you Sir ❤

[@naiginod]

The Lord has had me in Isaiah the past few weeks so this is timely.

[@jesusislord88]

I definitely love the passion you have for teaching, it's always so encouraging, praise God for your willing obedience and love for Him and His people! Also, you talking about overtime with pastors made me laugh some, I'm a born and raised Texan of around 33 years, but have been living in Ghana Africa for the past 2 years, America doesn't come close to how the church services are here, a typical short service is about 4 hours if that, most are around 5 to 6 hours easy; then every Friday they do what they call all nights, they meet and praise and worship, maybe some preaching, for around 12+ hours, anywhere from about 6pm to 6am depending on the church, as well as longer Wednesday services as well. It's a blessing to spend so much more time worshipping and praising God with our brothers and sisters in Christ in the way they celebrate and worship Him. Though sometimes there are some things that are tough to understand or strange ways that some of the churches have here, they definitely love the Lord with all their hearts in places like this! All praise, honor, and glory to the Most High, thank you Jesus for Dr. James Tour and may he and his family always be blessed and protected, in Jesus' name I pray, amen! 🙏

[@kimberlycraft3806]

Thank you! ❤✝️ When brilliant minds share the Good News it abundantly affirms those like me who love God and Jesus, but do not have the platform nor are as articulate in sharing. I am very blessed to freely share my faith, yet in the most simple and ordinary ways:) Thank you again for teaching and elevating my knowledge, my heart and ability to speak more deeply about Isaiah.

[@kcrcbest]

I Love Isaiah really can't stop reading this wonderful book

Why do I love this man so much?!?!?

[@johannaquinones7473]

I am praying both of us be encouraged to start running in the race too❤

[@RyanKelley-v4e]

Thank you Dr Tour for your in depth coverage of Isaiah! I've watched some of your videos on intelligent design theory and have really been impressed by how you reveal the work of God's hand in our modern day. I found this video by 'accident' because I was searching for wisdom and meaning in the book of Isaiah (seek and you will find). You are a modern apostle of Truth!

[@AlanBennett866]

I stumbled onto you through "Daily Wisdom". I just did an in depth study of Isaiah last year and was still edified y this and am looking forward to this study.

[@jojachie2881]

I look foward to the whole series on Isaiah

[@keytorich]

2 Timothy 3:16 " all scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God (or woman) may be competent, equipped for every good work. "

[@sharonvanderwesthuizen430]

You are such a blessing. I love your passion for the Lord and his word. You are such an example in the scientific world you represent. You are so sincere in your desire to spread the gospel.

Again thank you Mr Tori you're speaking about so many things that since you're Jewish you understand a lot of Jewish terms and things that I didn't quite understand and thank you so much for making things clear cuz this is my favorite favorite book

[@betterdaysahead3746]

Thank you for this Dr. Tour, I am looking forward to learning more under your teaching, and am especially excited because of your background in science as I plan on sharing your videos with my brother who tends to be more science-minded. For years he has been wrestling with faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and has many questions. I pray God will use you to speak to his mind. Again, thank you and God's blessing be upon you. Merry Christmas! Christ is King!

[@lloydolayvar1641]

Sometimes I prefer to listen to Dr. Tour than to pastors.

[@BIBLE-UNBUTCHERED]

Outstanding teaching Dr. Tour. Doc, you'll be glad to know that professor Dave guy is a serial mocker. He carries on, with profanities, to so very many others. Thank God, what a profound body of work has been borne of it. How miraculous are are Our Lord's ways.

[@davidervin7345]

Thank you Dr Tour.

[@trommelbiel]

Isaiah is my favourite Prophet even though l barely understand his writings ✍️

[@Agben35]

Love this. Just started. Saw Dr. Tour a couple of years ago at the Dallas Conference of Science and Faith.

[@wataboutya9310]

I read recently that the almost complete manuscript of Isaiah which was found as part of the dead sea scrolls, was identical in every word and punctuation mark as the oldest we had already in existence. Being that it is at least one thousand years older than any existing goes a long way to prove how and why the Israelites were chosen to be God's people.

[@franmorrison1080]

yes, this was big news in the 60s.. I remember going to see the dead sea scrolls in the Royal Ontario Musuem in Toronto.

[@leonardmasano312]

May God bless you ever more! Do you know that you always look younger when teaching the Bible than when challenging origin of life scientists?

[@ianturnbull985]

Look Dr. Tour, his name cannot possibly be pronounced Izayah, otherwise you wouldn't be able to crack the joke, one eye's higher than the other! Got it! God bless you for your stand within the field you work in!

I want to go to Dr. Tour's House for lunch on a Sunday!

[@COSMOS_AND_SUPER_ULTRA_MIND]

Hello Dr. Tour, thank you for a really very interesting and high-quality issue.👍 Please write here an open-to-all answer to the question: are the Biblical manuscripts of Qumran and the Septuagint older than the Masoretic manuscripts and how many centuries older?

[@BuddyLee23]

Not a Christian, but wish I could have a relationship with our creator like many Christians report having. That said, there is no way in hell would I ever try to take Dr.Tour’s time to talk to my thick-head about anything. I’d feel guilty for denying the rest of world his brilliance for even a minute.

[@gregpfaffe4098]

Old, old guy now. But when 19 I wondered “Are these thought that I’m having ACTUALLY from somewhere else?” ; maybe from God’s Spirit? I finally talked back, said OK, it’s Your way God” Everthing changed! Dr Tour will have time for you; I know this personally. Yeah, I really love your honesty too! From Hawaii
