Jeremiah 8 (a)

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

Jeremiah 8:1-2 KJV (2 verses)

1 At that time, saith the LORD, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves:

“At that time” – God is talking about the final generation and what will happen. He is speaking of the enemies of Israel (and Christianity) at the end time. Satan is moving in.

God’s wrath is going to come due in the fig tree generation, that’s the final generation to live on this earth. It had to happen sometime – if you’re here now, you may have an important role to play! Turn to God and ask Him what you should be doing to prepare, to sow seeds.

Remember, though, you can’t sow seeds (of wisdom) that you don’t have, so hurry! Open your Bible and pray, and find out what God wants you to do.

2 And they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served, and after whom they have walked, and whom they have sought, and whom they have worshipped: they shall not be gathered, nor be buried; they shall be for dung upon the face of the earth.

Even though the enemy will flatter you to get you to follow, they care nothing about you. God will save your soul, however, IF you have obeyed and walked in His ways. Read Jeremiah 7:23 to find out what God wants from you. Wonderful.

(Jer 7:23 – “But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.”)

Jeremiah 7 (I)

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

Jeremiah 7:30-34 KJV (5 verses)

30 For the children of Judah have done evil in my sight, saith the LORD: they have set their abominations in the house which is called by my name, to pollute it.

31 And they have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I commanded them not, neither came it into my heart.

Tophet is “the place of burning”, and Hinnom is basically hell.

God says, “it didn’t even enter my mind to have you burn your children as sacrifices.”

He says, “you are building your own hell.”

32 Therefore, behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the valley of slaughter: for they shall bury in Tophet, till there be no place.

It won’t be called burning anymore, but it will be called slaughter.

The deception is so rampant that people are spiritually dead, because the truth is not in them.

We have to be very careful not to take up this deception in our lives.

33 And the carcases of this people shall be meat for the fowls of the heaven, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall fray them away.

Zechariah 14 gives you a gross but accurate picture of this.

34 Then will I cause to cease from the cities of Judah, and from the streets of Jerusalem, the voice of mirth, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride: for the land shall be desolate.

This is when the spiritual death comes to pass. Who are the murderers? Lying preachers and pastors who are not teaching the word of God.

How do we worship God? By hearing His word…not by making cakes and rolling eggs to the queen of heaven (see verse 18).

There is a worse death than the death of this flesh, that is spiritual death. But people drift away from the true word of God and they will be meat for all that is cruel and evil, and their souls will cease to exist.

God warns us! Let’s listen and hear, and do what He wants us to. The time is growing short…

                                                       ~~~~~~~

(Next is Jeremiah chapter 8 – God starts that chapter out with “At that time”. That time He is referring to is the fig tree generation, the final generation that will be on earth before Jesus returns to end this world and take us all to the Lord’s Day. The time every generation who has lived on earth has been waiting for. Look forward to it! Have His Word in your mouth and in your heart!)

Jeremiah 7 (h)

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

Jeremiah 7:27-29 KJV (3 verses)

27 Therefore thou shalt speak all these words unto them; but they will not hearken to thee: thou shalt also call unto them; but they will not answer thee.

The people’s ears are not equipped to handle the real truth… they want to hear about “the sweet by and by”, not the real truth.

They want to be rocked to sleep – but God wants us to WORK, not sleep!

28 But thou shalt say unto them, This is a nation that obeyeth not the voice of the LORD their God, nor receiveth correction: truth is perished, and is cut off from their mouth.

If you will allow it, some will remove the word “God” from your vocabulary completely. Don’t let them. Stand strong.

29 Cut off thine hair, O Jerusalem, and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on high places; for the LORD hath rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

The generation of His wrath is the fig tree generation, the final generation.

Where it says “O Jerusalem” in italics, that tells us that is not the word that was there. It should be the daughters of Jerusalem as He speaks of them in Ezekiel 13, where He says “you sew pillows to cover my outreaching arms…”. They want to hide the truth of His love from anybody who they can fool.

Jeremiah 7 (g)

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

Jeremiah 7:23-26 KJV (4 verses)

23 But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

You can’t walk in His ways if you don’t understand them! We must know what the whole word of God says.

If I could put that comment up in neon lights on a billboard, I would.

When we walk in His ways, then it will be well with us. That’s a promise from God.

I underlined this verse in hope that some will realize how important it is to know how to obey God, and get this blessing of wellness from Him!

24 But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear, but walked in the counsels and in the imagination of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

The counsels they walk in are the counsels of the scribes, not God’s true word.

“This is so holy, I like to hear it”, many say, although it is false and spewed forth by false teachers who don’t care a whit about your soul, only their paychecks and retirement plans.

We must incline our ears to God’s word, and go forward, not backward!

25 Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt unto this day I have even sent unto you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:

God keeps sending us His servants the prophets (Jeremiah is one of them), God rises up early and sends them to us.

26 Yet they hearkened not unto me, nor inclined their ear, but hardened their neck: they did worse than their fathers.

But we don’t listen! We harden our hearts and trust in false preachers, over and over again, when we can read and learn God’s true word, His true desires…in the letter He sent us.

Jeremiah 7 (f)

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

Jeremiah 7:20-22 KJV (3 verses)

20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.

This is future, obviously this has not happened. There is a time illustrated here – do you know when this will come to pass? 2 Peter 3 lets us know that the first earth age was destroyed by water (not Noah’s flood as that did not destroy the whole earth) and in verse 10 we see that this current earth age in which we are living will be destroyed by fire.

If we are in God’s word and not listening to false preachers who say we are going to “fly away”, we won’t have to worry, we won’t even be singed by that fire.

21 Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Put your burnt offerings unto your sacrifices, and eat flesh.

God says, “you keep it, I don’t want it. You can eat those burnt offerings yourself”.

He wants us to love and obey Him! He commanded us to “obey my voice and I will be your God”…see verse 23.

22 For I spake not unto your fathers, nor commanded them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:

From Hosea 6:6, paraphrased – “I don’t want your burnt offerings, I want you to love me and obey me. I want you to know about me!”

Hosea 6:6 – KJV – “For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the KNOWLEDGE of God more than burnt offerings.”

Jeremiah 7 (e)

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

Jeremiah 7:16-19 KJV (3 verses)

16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.

The people who are so stubborn and evil, they try to destroy God’s name in our country, and God doesn’t even want to hear us pray for them because He is going to destroy them. Don’t fall in with them, don’t befriend them, don’t even wish them “Godspeed”…

17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?

18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

This is the way we celebrate Easter, and it’s very wrong. We don’t understand the whole story and we should. We should be celebrating Jesus’ resurrection at Passover.

He became our Passover, so when little children carry eggs around at Easter time, they are participating in a fertility rite to the goddess Eshtare (Ashtertoth in the Old Testament).

God hates it. He hates that we don’t understand what we are doing, because we don’t read and understand His word. This thing is not hidden from us, if only we read and understand the letter He sent us.

19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?

They are completely confused. Honestly, we need to understand that when we celebrate “Easter”, we provoke HIM to anger, and we provoke ourselves (and our children) to confusion.

PLEASE, don’t trust what I am saying here! Read your Bible! The word “Easter” was mis-translated (perhaps on purpose by those minions who work for Satan)… but there is plenty of information in the Bible, and in the Strong’s Concordance, that explain the confusion!

Don’t be okay with your own ignorance! I didn’t like changing my way of thinking about that holiday, either… but once I saw the truth, I couldn’t continue celebrating a pagan holiday any longer.

God doesn’t wink at ignorance. Don’t stay that way.

Jeremiah 7 (d)

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

Jeremiah 7:12-15 KJV (4 verses)

12 But go ye now unto my place which was in Shiloh, where I set my name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of my people Israel.

Shiloh – the place of rest. What He did to it was to allow the very covenant of the Tabernacle to be stolen by the Philistines – because of Israel’s sins.

Think of how this could apply to your life, if you continue not to care about Him… He could take away every chance you have at redemption!!

All you need to do is turn and tell God you love Him, and ask for His help in constructing your life correctly.

13 And now, because ye have done all these works, saith the LORD, and I spake unto you, rising up early and speaking, but ye heard not; and I called you, but ye answered not;

Our Father calls us in many ways, nudges us in many ways… we must listen.

If we do, He has wonderful things for us. Otherwise…

14 Therefore will I do unto this house, which is called by my name, wherein ye trust, and unto the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh.

Don’t trust the place, “the house”, more than you trust God, or He will leave you.

15 And I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brethren, even the whole seed of Ephraim.

That’s the 10 northern tribes of Israel, see Jer. 3:8 – God divorced them and scattered them throughout the world. They are “the lost tribes”… but God hasn’t lost them. Still, He expects them to step up, especially once they realize who they are.
