Spirit on our children?
Isaiah prophesies that God's covenant is that his words and his spirit will rest upon those of his people who 'repent of their sins' . the preceding passage is clearly messaianic, so we can assume that promises made are for those for whom Christ has worked salvation. I wonder therefore what we are to make of the final promise of the passage (v21) that Gods Spirit and his word are in hte mouths not only of those saved but on the mouths of their children and their decendants 'from this time on and forever.' ? this is consistent with other passages but seems incongerous with the notion of individual salvation (God has no grandchildren type stuff)
