Jeremiah _ wept for people _ / despite people's _ _ mocking. _

He depended (only) on God _ / to give right words _ through him. _
Jeremiah obeyed God _ / What (about) you? _ what (do you) choose? _
Are we Jeremiah for God? / Will we take a stand? _ _ _
Will we gladly suffer for God? / Will we weep for them? _ _ _
Will we obey Jesus in His / Matthew book's last verse? _ _ _
Will we endure all we must to / tell them how (to es)-cape Sin's curse? _

Jeremiah as a youth _ / spoke what God said _ to speak. _
forty years (after) (answer)-ing God's call / he still chose _ obeying. _

Jeremiah _ wept for God, / at how people _ hurt God. _
He
refused to water down _ / God's what's
right, what's wrong
_ LAWS. _

Jeremiah
spoke God's Truth _ / no matter how they hurt him.

Will
we, will our church obey God? /_ Stand on God's TRUTH at all costs?

God's SUPPORTING WORDS:
“Thus
says the LORD: 'What injustice have your fathers found in Me, that
they have gone far from Me, have followed idols?.. Has a nation
changed its gods, which are not gods?... Be astonished, O heavens, at
this, and be horribly afraid; be very desolate,' says the LORD. 'For
My people have committed two evils: They have forsaken Me, the
Fountain of living waters, and hewn themselves cisterns – broken
cisterns that can hold no water.'” --
Jeremiah 2: 5, 11a, 12-13 NKJV....
a
Warning from God to people & His Churches today
