Jeremiah Study at Church

Recently, at church we have been studying the book of Jeremiah. It is such a blessing to dig deeper into some of the Old Testament books of the Bible. I would like to share with you some of the things the Lord has been teaching me through this study.

Here are the topics we are studying. (today we heard sermon #9)

1. God's plan to choose a people to glorify Himself
2. Abrahamic and Mosaic Covenants
3. Israel's demand for a king
4. The break up of the kingdom of Israel
5. The failure of the Northern Kingdom (Israel)
6. The failure of the Southern Kingdom (Judah)
7. Jeremiah as a person
8. God's case against Judah
9. God's sentence and verdict against Judah
10. Misplaced trust
11. Unfaithful shepherds and lying prophets
12. God's promise to restore His people
13. A new Covenant
14. The nation rejects Jeremiah and God rejects the nation
15. Babylon - historical and spiritual
16. A terrible judgment and a ray of hope in Babylon

Some of the main themes spoken about so far are:
faith vs. fear
true worship vs. idolatry
faithfulness vs. rebellion
God's covenants with man (Abramhamic, Mosaic, New Covenant)

I would encourage each of you to read through the book of Jeremiah. There is so much wisdom about following after God's way rather than worshiping what is false out of fear.
I pray each of you are following the Lord and His ways faithfully!
