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:

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 – Jeremiah 3 (d)

The book of Jeremiah - chapter by chapter and verse by verse
Jeremiah 3:18-25 KJV

18 In those days the house of Judah shall walk with the house of Israel, and they shall come together out of the land of the north to the land that I have given for an inheritance unto your fathers.

Right now, the house of Judah and the 10 northern tribes of Israel are split, but then they will be together, accepting their inheritance.

That’s how we know that Jeremiah is speaking of end times here, because Judah and Israel have not been together since the tribes of Israel were taken captive by the Assyrian, 200 years before Judah was taken into a 70-year captivity to Babylon by Nebuchadnezzar.

You can read of this gathering back in Ezekiel 37 when God tells Ezekiel to preach to the bones – meaning those who are spiritually dead.

Who is Israel? Nobody really knows, they are the “lost tribes”… except that God has not lost them – He made sure that after they had multiplied greatly while in Assyrian captivity they were scattered throughout the world. No country wanted them because there were so many, even way back then.

Now if we can add 2 + 2, we know they didn’t “die off” or anything. They are the lost tribes, the blessed remnant, now the Christians of the world. Grab on to your inheritance, people!

19 But I said, How shall I put thee among the children, and give thee a pleasant land, a goodly heritage of the hosts of nations? and I said, Thou shalt call me, My father; and shalt not turn away from me.

This is what we do in order to inherit everything good from our Father… (underline is mine). God asks how He can do it, and then answers...for our edification and understanding.

20 Surely as a wife treacherously departeth from her husband, so have ye dealt treacherously with me, O house of Israel, saith the LORD.

We have committed spiritual adultery… We can save ourselves from that if we know the book of Revelation and know that the false Christ comes first. We must be spiritual virgins when the true bridegroom arrives here on earth.

God expects His true bride (us) to stand against that false one and those false teachings!

21 A voice was heard upon the high places, weeping and supplications of the children of Israel: for they have perverted their way, and they have forgotten the LORD their God.

22 Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings. Behold, we come unto thee; for thou art the LORD our God.

IF we repent, all those sins we’ve piled up are completely erased. (IF – the biggest little word that God uses over and over again in His word.) But, we can work on changing... sometimes it's a little slow but once it starts happening - it gets easier and easier.

23 Truly in vain is salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly in the LORD our God is the salvation of Israel.

24 For shame hath devoured the labour of our fathers from our youth; their flocks and their herds, their sons and their daughters.

These have been stolen by false teachings: our labour, our children and our rich heritage – all the way back to the book of Chronicles you will find the Kenites (offspring of Cain) already keeping records as scribes for the kings. (1 Chronicles 2:55).

However, there is a remnant, there is always a remnant as God promised, who carry forward His true word. We have no excuse for not knowing and understanding.

25 We lie down in our shame, and our confusion covereth us: for we have sinned against the LORD our God, we and our fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD our God.

Here is how easily falseness and confusion can slip in – the word “Easter” is used one time in the Bible, in the book of Acts, and is a mistranslated word. The real word in the original manuscripts was “pascal”, Passover.

Passover is the high holy day of Christianity, and “Ishtar” is a pagan goddess, to whom heathen nations rolled eggs as a fertility rite, and did “grove worship”, holding orgies in the groves of the mountains.

And yet God told us in Exodus 12 that we are to celebrate Passover “for ever”. But we left it behind for a pagan goddess and weird worship rites. Sad. We could have looked the word Easter up in a dictionary and known the truth.

Exodus 12 is God’s direct description of Passover… read that chapter to understand the truth about what GOD wants.

The following verses in Exodus 12 tell us clearly that God expects us to celebrate Passover “for ever”:

Ex 12:14 And this day shall be unto you for a memorial; and ye shall keep it a feast to the LORD throughout your generations; ye shall keep it a feast by an ordinance for ever.

Ex 12:17 And ye shall observe the feast of unleavened bread; for in this selfsame day have I brought your armies out of the land of Egypt: therefore shall ye observe this day in your generations by an ordinance for ever.

Ex 12:24 And ye shall observe this thing for an ordinance to thee and to thy sons for ever. KJV
