Jeremiah 26:8-15
Jeremiah's Escape from Death
Well the leaders really are not liking
what Jeremiah has to say here.
Talking destruction language.
The LORD tells Jeremiah to give them everything-
every word, the entire message.
The response?
The crowd mobs him and the priests and prophets
shout to kill him.
But, the officials of Judah heard the commotion and
rushed to the New Gate of the Temple
to hold court and listen.
Jeremiah pleads his case and says,
"The Lord gave me every thing that I have spoken."
So they would be killing an innocent man
and that would weigh heavily against them.
Then some wise old men stood up and said
this sounded like someone before!
Sounds like that prophet Micah!
Maybe, there is something here to listen to from this guy.
Repent. Turn from our sins. Change our ways.
We could save ourselves from great harm.
None of us ever want to have sin pointed out.
It is often easier to go with the flow
then swim upstream.
God's Word is pretty clear about what
He demands and expects.
Time to tune in and listen up.
