Judgment and Redemption
JUDGMENT & REDEMPTION
Tonight (Wednesday, 9/18, 7:00 pm), gather with your Calvary Chapel family in the Holy Grounds Cafe or on our website (www.calvaryinv.com), Facebook, and YouTube (Calvary Inverness) as we continue in the book of Jeremiah (50-51).
Jeremiah had faithfully delivered the word of the Lord for more than forty years. He never shrank from the challenge of telling people exactly what they needed to hear.
His love for God gave him a love for his people and the surrounding nations. It also gave him the fortitude to continue even when everyone, including his family, was against him.
At the end of his ministry, Jeremiah had one last nation to proclaim God's word to Babylon. It would be the severest condemnation of all the ten nations that Jeremiah had prophesied to.
Babylon had been God's tool to chastise His people, but they had gone far beyond what He had commanded. Now, it was time to deliver the warning, not to save the nation but the people.
God would judge Babylon for her sins.
The devastation would be so great that it would never be inhabited again. The only thing left would be the evil spirits.
But those who heeded Jeremiah' message, including the Jews who would soon be released from their seventy-year captivity, could escape before it was too late.
Not all of Jeremiah's prophecy was fulfilled in 539 BC when the Medes and Persians invaded Babylon. There is still another judgment coming that will fulfill what Jeremiah was told.
That is why the church must continue to warn people to turn from their sins, come to Jesus through faith, and escape the destruction that is coming before it is too late.
Please pray that this journey through the Word of God will be received by open hearts that long to grow inJesus'' grace and Knowledge. Moreover, He would do deep and abiding work in and through us for a world in desperate need of a Savior.
In His Strong Love,
Pastor
