Jeremiah 5 (c)

The book of Jeremiah – chapter by chapter and verse by verse

Jeremiah 5:20-22 KJV

Jeremiah chapter 5 – God wants us to Investigate!

20 Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,

(the house of Jacob - means everyone, all 12 tribes, and their descendants. All. Everyone. Not just "the Jews, we need to realize who is who in God's word.)

21 Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:

Many cannot understand what God is saying to us. One thing to understand is that God is a jealous God. He loves us but we don’t care. Just like so many have been hurt by lovers who don’t really care – many are hurting God because they don’t take the time to care for Him.

God’s word makes this even clearer in the words He gave to the prophet Nahum:

Nahum 1:2 KJV – “God is jealous, and the LORD revengeth; the LORD revengeth,” (two times for emphasis) “and is furious; the LORD will take vengeance on his adversaries, and he reserves wrath for his enemies.”

Then in Nahum 1:3 we read that He “will not at all acquit the wicked”.

Sooooo many Christians have their heads deep in the sand, preaching that it’s all okay, Jesus loves us, lalalalala… please, please – READ GOD’S WORD!! He loves us – but only when we’re following His true ways! We can’t make up our own ways.

Did Jesus address this problem? Yes He did, Mark 7:9 – “And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.” KJV

Was Jesus speaking ONLY to the Pharisees and Saducees? No, just as in every verse of the Bible, there are onion skin layers – and the lessons, everything that is included there – is directed to US, to YOU! God wrote you a letter – are you going to read it?

22 Fear ye not me? saith the LORD: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

So many have absolutely no respect for God, despite all He does to protect us. Amazing things, like controlling the oceans of the world for our benefit… and much more. We just need to look around.

(This post – only 3 verses from the amazing book of Jeremiah, “he who God has appointed”. God says He knew Jeremiah before Jeremiah was in the womb of his mother…. Do you think God pre-knew YOU, as well? I think that if it worked that way for Jeremiah, it works that way for everyone. Think of it… God sent you here at this time and in this place – why? It just happened, random? No, no. God sent you here for a purpose at this time and in this place. Perhaps your purpose isn’t as high as Jeremiah’s… but there is a reason. Look into it! God will definitely reveal His purpose for you once you begin asking Him and start looking for what He has said about it. To you! And when you find out? Well, wow. That’s pretty much all I can say.)

Jeremiah 5 (b)

The book of Jeremiah – chapter by chapter and verse by verse

Jeremiah 5:10-19 KJV

Jeremiah chapter 5 – God wants us to Investigate!

10 Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they are not the LORD's.

Satan as antichrist will be here first, and will destroy many during that time. He will look good. Guard yourselves, know the true word so you can avoid being fooled. Read God’s true word!

(“but make not a full end” – once again, this is because there has always been a remnant carrying forth God’s true word who will be saved.)

11 For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the LORD.

Investigate the nations and investigate the churches. Who is teaching what? Does it really follow Scripture? You won’t know if you don’t read your Bible.

Who are Judah and Israel in our current time, do you know? Please read this post for the explanation:
https://dontbedeceived1.blogspot.com/2017/12/israel.html.

12 They have belied the LORD, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:

Speaking of the lies, they don’t know the difference between what God has said and what Satan deceives people with.

The famine of the end time is not for food, but starvation for the true word of God!

See Amos 8:11: “Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:”

So don’t be scared that we’ll all starve from lack of food – that’s not what will happen at all – as God tells us, the end time famine will be for hearing the words of the LORD. Look around. Are we getting close?

13 And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them: thus shall it be done unto them.

The prophets mentioned are the preachers and pastors who don’t really teach God’s true word, they are men speaking their own ideas. Read the word chapter by chapter and verse by verse, and learn the truth it speaks. Don’t let a one-verse Charlie pastor steal your inheritance. Go find the truth – it’s in the true word of God.

14 Wherefore thus saith the LORD God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

“Because ye speak this word” means Satan’s word is being spoken, and the people who listen to it shall be burned up.

15 Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the LORD: it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.

The ancient nation is Babylon, which means “confusion”. Satan is the head of Babylon, and the master of confusion and deceit.

16 Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all mighty men.

A sepulchre is a grave – this means they will mislead people who will die spiritually because they allowed themselves to be misled. They don’t know what God’s word says or means simply because they don’t study and check out what others say by reading His word.

17 And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

“Eat up”, three times for emphasis. Gasoline is an example of foreign countries eating up our money, they are enjoying the profits that should be ours if we’d harvest our own oil.

18 Nevertheless in those days, saith the LORD, I will not make a full end with you.

The remnant will always be with God, and they will broadcast the truth to the world, although many will not listen. There has always been a remnant carrying forth God’s true word.

19 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the LORD our God all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not yours.

Unless we get smart and follow God’s ways, we will be serving other nations because we don’t understand how to run a nation under God.

(I hope you will read the next post - it will be published on Christmas day 2018 - and addresses the fact that our God is a jealous God, and discusses the harvest of mankind. Thanks for reading!)

Jeremiah 5 (a)

The book of Jeremiah – chapter by chapter and verse by verse

Jeremiah 5:1-9 KJV

Jeremiah chapter 5 has God asking us to Investigate. Go investigate your beliefs in light of what His word really says…

1 Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

2 And though they say, The LORD liveth; surely they swear falsely.

3 O LORD, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

They are so set in their ways that they will not return to God.

4 Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the LORD, nor the judgment of their God.

5 I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the LORD, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

They are deceived and have broken the bond with God.

6 Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.

7 How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots' houses.

God says I fed them but they won’t listen, they are waiting to marry the wrong bridegroom, the antichrist, a god that is no god.

Christ will be returning wanting a virgin bride, but so many are misled by false teaching that He won’t find many who still have oil in their lamps.

We don’t want to be fooled into the shameful situation of worshipping the false Christ, the antichrist,  who will arrive on earth before Jesus to fool as many as he can before the Second Advent - the return of the True Christ.

8 They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour's wife.

Speaking of messing around with false teaching and the false Christ.

9 Shall I not visit for these things? saith the LORD: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

When He gives us so many things, our freedom and so many other blessings because our nation knows Christ, but then we drift away from it more and more – well, He’s going to allow us to be attacked by Satan. Look around at our nation… are we the God-trusting nation that we once were?

(In the next post we read about the famine of the end times, the confusion, about Satan's word being spoken instead of God's word. These are things we need to know about so that we don't get taken down!)

Jeremiah 4 (e)

The book of Jeremiah – chapter by chapter and verse by verse

Jeremiah 4:23-31 KJV

23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

He destroyed the whole earth to make it void and without form. This is not Noah’s flood, but at the “katabole”, when Satan took 1/3 of God’s children, and God destroyed the earth, which previously had been created to be inhabited. (Isaiah 45:18).

There is an error in translation in Genesis 1:2 that says the earth “was” void and without form, but the actual Hebrew word is “became” void and without form. God made it that way so that He could then allow us to return to this earth in flesh bodies to live a lifetime and each make a choice between Him and Satan.

Fairness, all the way. Nobody will be able to complain about their “choice”.

24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.

He moved the mountains and destroyed the earth. See next verse – there was no man and there were no birds.

25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.

It was destroyed, it was a wilderness.

He is going to do it again, see Hebrews 12:26-28.

Heb 12:26: “Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.”

If we are standing on the true Christ, then we cannot be shaken – but everything else will be shaken.

27 For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.

He will not make a full end – this refers to the fact that HE is going to fight the war with Gog & Magog – but that happens after the Second Advent (a thousand years after, to be exact) and at that time, every bit of evil will be gone, and then new Jerusalem will descend to earth, all evil will be destroyed forever, and we who believed will be basking in the light of the glory of God.

I urge you to proceed right now to your Bible (King James version is best) and read from Revelation 20:4 to Revelation 21:8 – it is beautiful, wonderful and lovely.

As God always does on the important points – second witness is always found - you can also read the prophecies of this exact thing in Ezekiel 38:2-23; and again in Ezekiel 39:6-8.

We will become His Bride – all of us, male and female, as long as we have circumcised hearts.

28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.

It’s done. He will not change His mind.

29 The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.

30 And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.

31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.

The birth of a new age, after the Second Advent, when Jesus returns to this earth and shows us that Satan pretending to be Him by sitting in the mercy seat in Jerusalem will fool a lot of people, but it will be all clearly seen as fake once Jesus arrives to wipe antichrist out forever. Many will be fooled at that time - please don't let it be you!

Cain was the first murderer, and Cain was the offspring of Satan. Satan wishes to murder your soul, even now. Don’t let him! Read and learn God’s word so you can be protected by understanding the key of David.

(This is the end of Jeremiah chapter 4. In Jeremiah chapter 5, we are urged to Investigate. I hope you will join me in learning what God wants us all to know.)
