Pretended Piety
Clay Curtis

Isaiah 7: 10: Moreover the LORD spake again unto Ahaz, saying, 11: Ask thee a sign of the LORD thy God; ask it either in the depth, or in the height above. 12: But Ahaz said, I will not ask, neither will I tempt the LORD.

Ahaz knew two enemy kings were ready to attack him in Jerusalem. Yet, when the gospel was declared to him and he was commanded to believe on Christ the Lord in whom God promised to destroy these enemies, he would not. He used the excuse that he would not tempt the Lord.

Fact is Ahaz was one of the most religious kings ever to sit upon the throne of David in the house of Judah. He wore his religion with pride. He filled Jerusalem with graven images. His heart was fat with pride, his ears dull of hearing the word of the LORD. Therefore when he shut his eyes in a pretense of piety it was really because he abhorred the gospel of Christ Jesus the Lord. The gospel took salvation out of his hands and placed it totally in the hands of Immanuel. Isaiah's gospel declared that Ahaz could in no way establish himself. Still, in willful rebellion against the only God who could save him, Ahaz turned away to the king of Assyria for help. He turned from the Lord and trusted in the effort of his own hand, the wisdom of his own mind, the way that seemed right unto him. He perished.

Are you pretending to be righteous when in fact you think you are wiser than God? Are you refusing to ask God to give you assurance because your assurance is really in something you have already done? The word of the Lord to Ahaz is as straight forward as it gets, “If ye will not believe, ye shall not be established.” May the Lord be pleased to establish you that you may believe on Christ and be saved. There is salvation in no other.
