A Map of World in Jeremiah’s Day
Jeremiah was freed from prison by Nebuchadnezzar when the siege came, yet he was caught up with a group led by guerrilla leaders traveling to Egypt against the Lord’s wishes.
Despite a clear warning from the Lord through Jeremiah, the people persisted stubbornly in their worship of idols, which ended in their spiritual death. Throughout history, people have neglected the Word of God. How are you doing obeying its truths?
Oh, what a terrible condition to be in opposition to the Word of God! It may seem that we’re getting by with sin in our culture, but His Word is true and sooner or later, His wrath will come.
