Isaiah 1:12 ASV, Isaiah 1:13-14 ASV, Isaiah 1:15 ASV, Isaiah 1:16 ASV and Isaiah 1:17-20 ASV

God is so tired of our shallow attempts to come to Him. He is weary of being placated by insincere people who mock Him in their "acts" of worship. Yet he still pleads that we come to Him and reason with Him. In His anger and dissapointment he could just as well wipe us out, yet he desires for us to be saved. What an awesome God!

He asks us to come to Him and he will make our sins as white as snow. This would imply that we want our sins removed, that we hate our sin and desire to be cleansed. God is seeking repentant people who recognize thier sin and desire to cleansed, not self righteous people who try to fool him by outward acts of empty worship.
