The Messiah Returns

Isaiah 63
1 Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.

This chapter is about the grand return of the Messiah, Jesus Christ.  

More From Isaiah 63
3 I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.

And this is about the works of Jesus, the Messiah, and his vengeance. The people who were "none for me" are the grapes that He tramples. Their blood stains His garments.

Whoa.....

I guess Christ has many names.  Here it is Christ, the avenger.  And that's alright.  But, my first thought of Christ will always be Christ, the reconciler.
