"Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be said, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt; but, The LORD liveth, that brought up the children of Israel from the land of the north, and from all the lands whither He …
These post are about GOD; His love, and yes His hate. Maybe it would be nicer to say, His wrath. His wrath is what He pours out on what He hates. For His children He hates any sin that is in us. He hates my sin. He hates your sin. He is working in me …
“Therefore you shall speak to them this word: ‘Thus says the LORD God of Israel: “Every bottle shall be filled with wine.” ’ “And they will say to you, ‘Do we not certainly know that every bottle will be filled with wine?’ “Then you shall say to them, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Behold, I will …
The title is a question many people down through human history have asked. Yes, I have as well. This was a question Jeremiah the prophet was asking in the text you will read in a moment.

Under the reign of Rehoboam, the son of Solomon, the nation of Israel was divided into two nations (1 Kings 12). Known as the southern kingdom of Judah, made up of only two tribes, and the northern kingdom of Israel. The southern kingdom had a few kings which the LORD spoke kindly of, and said, …
The prophet had an eye and heart for the true God, and His word. He despised what was happening in Judah, and Jerusalem; the hypocrisy within the priesthood.

Then the word of the LORD came to me, saying, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.” Jeremiah 1:4-5 (NKJV) From the first verse of Jeremiah's prophecy we see that he was a member of a family …

And you, son of man, do not be afraid of them nor be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns are with you and you dwell among scorpions; do not be afraid of their words or dismayed by their looks, though they are a rebellious house. You shall speak My words to them, whether …

"And I will set My throne in Elam, and will destroy from thence the king and the princes,' saith the LORD. 'But it shall come to pass in the latter days, that I will bring again the captivity of Elam,' saith the LORD." Jeremiah 49:38-39 (KJV) In the past few chapters of Jeremiah's prophecy God …
"But fear not thou, O My servant Jacob, and be not dismayed, O Israel: for, behold, I will save thee from afar off, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall return, and be in rest and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. Fear thou not, O Jacob My …
