Jeremiah Chapter 7
They were dealing with each other unjustly Jeremiah 7:5
They were oppressing foreigners Jeremiah 7:6
They were oppressing the fatherless {orphans} and
widows {the defenseless} Jeremiah 7:6
They were killing innocent people Jeremiah 7: 6
They were stealing, murdering, committing adultery and
committing perjury in the courts. Jeremiah 7:9
God spoke to them again and again and told them to stop
doing all these sins, but they refused to listen to Him and
they kept on murdering innocent people. Jeremiah 7:13
They were stiff-necked and would not listen and obey the
Lord -- they refused to respond o His correction. Jeremiah 7:24-28
They even murdered their own children by burning them in fire as
sacrifices to their blood-thirsty false gods. Jeremiah 7:30-31
God spoke to them repeatedly and told them to stop murdering
innocent people, and to stop stealing, and to stop oppressing
widows and orphans and to stop murdering their children by
offering them in the fires as sacrifices to their false blood-thirsty
gods -- but they de facto told God, "No we will NOT stop
murdering innocent people." See all of Jeremiah chapter 7
So?
So God destroyed them and gave their dead bodies to the birds
of the air and they became meals for the vultures -- "food for
the birds" Jeremiah 7:32-33
Concluding Remarks:
No human is forced to choose wrongly and thereby bring destruction
upon themselves. God gave us free will and we can choose to listen
to Him and obey His commands. He knows what is best for us and
He has made a way for us to say no to destructive sin and wrong doing.
The Lord Jesus opened our path to forgiveness and peace with
God by His death on the Cross. He purchased our salvation by
shedding His blood on Calvary. His death and Resurrection created
a New Covenant {a New Testament} between God and humanity.
"Whoever hears my word and believes Him who sent me has eternal life.
He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life."
John 5:24
"Therefore being justified by faith we have peace with God through
our Lord Jesus Christ" Romans 5:1
You too, today, can find peace with God , , , ,
"To all who did receive Him, who believed in His name, He gave
the right to become children of God." John 1:12
If you do not know the Lord Jesus as your savior, simply pray
this simple prayer from the heart:
"Dear Lord Jesus, I know that I am a sinner, and I ask for Your
forgiveness. I believe You died for my sins and rose from the
dead. I turn from my sins and invite You to come into my heart
and life. I want to trust and follow You as my Lord and Savior.
In Your Name. Amen."
