15And the vineyard which thy right hand planted, and the branch that thou madest strong for thyself. 16It is burnt with fire, it is cut down: they perish at the rebuke of thy countenance. Let thy hand be upon the man of thy right hand, upon the son of man whom thou madest strong for thyself. 18So will we not go back from thee: revive us, and we will call upon thy name. 19Restore us again, O LORD God of hosts, cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.

The end of our redemption is, that we should serve Him who hath redeemed us, and not go back to…Read the comment
