Jeremiah 2:14-37
Israelite brought these disaster on themselves by forsaking the Lord when he led them in the way?
You have as many gods as you have towns, O Judah. Every town has at least one foreign god.
They say to wood,' You are my father' and to stone,' You gave me birth.' They have turned their backs to me and not their faces; yet when they are in trouble, they say,' come and ave us!' Where then are the gods you made for yourselves?
You of this generation, consider the word of the Lord: "Have I been a desert to Israel or a land of great darkness? Why do my people say, 'We are free to roam; we will come to you not more?"
You says,' I am innocent; he is not angry with me.' But I will pass judgement on you because you say,' I have not sinned.' Why do you go about go much, changing your ways?
You will also leave that place with your hands on your head, for the Lord has rejected those you trust; you will not be helped by them.
Why?
They would sooner turn to Egypt and Assyria for help than to God. The vine of Israel has gone wild. Life wife turned common prostitute, the nation has run after foreign gods.
The Lord asked them many questions about their sins, they have denied their sins. consider the words of the Lord, He is speaking to us.
When we turn away from the Lord how can we asked the Lord protects us. Such as the massacre in element school of Newtown, Connecticut, for US has compelled the Lord out the school.
How?
Consider the word of the Lord, meditate His commandments and confess our sin before the Lord. I am a sinner.
