“My People Love To Have It So" Jeremiah 6:10-16

They Refused To Listen To The Word Of God "Behold, their ear is uncircumcised, and they cannot harken, the word of the Lord is unto them a reproach, and they have no delight in it." Jer. 6:10 Mt. 13:15; 2 Cor. 5:18-19; Isa. 30:9-10; 2 Pet. 3:5; Psa. 106:13; Cf. Prov. 14:12; Jer. 10:23

They Were Obsessed With Material Things "For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them everyone is given to covetousness." Jer. 6:l3 Lk. 12:15-21; Cf. Josh. 6-7. Cf. Eccl. 2:3ff; cf. Eccl. 5:l0; 1 Tim. 6:7-19. Mt. 6:19-20; 2 Cor. 4:18

They Deluded Themselves With Falsehoods "They have healed also the hurt of my people slightly, saying Peace, Peace; when there is no peace." Jer. 6:l4. Cf. Jno. 8:32... 2 Thess 2:10-11; Cf. 2 Tim. 4:2-4; Cf. Isa. 30:10; 1 Pet. 1:22

They Were Not Ashamed, Neither Could They Blush "Were they ashamed when they had committed abomination? nay, they were not at all ashamed, neither could they blush." Jer. 6:l5 1 Cor. 5:6; 1 Tim. 2:9

They Rejected The Only Possible Cure "Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls, But they said, we will not walk therein." Jer. 6:l6 Rev. 2:4-5; Jno. 8:32; Jude 3; 2 Tim. 4:2; Tit. 1:9; 2 Thess 2:10; Rom. 1:16-17

Jeremiah pleaded with the people, "Ask for the old paths, and walk therein,"... but Israel answered, "WE WILL NOT WALK THEREIN." Jer. 6:l6 Wrong Answer!!!

What will YOUR answer be??? Our plea is the same as that of Jeremiah. "Ask for the old paths, and walk therein,"... What will YOUR answer be???
