Jeremiah’s name most likely means loosens or throws, but some like to call him the Weeping Prophet. This is because Jeremiah’s message from God was not a nice one, he was sent to call Judah out for her sins and tell her that she would fall to Babylon. Jeremiah’s ministry began around 627 BC, and though he was generally not liked in Jerusalem, he did have a faithful scribe who is named in the Bible: Baruch. Jeremiah even writes a section of prophecy specifically to Baruch
from God. During his lifetime Jeremiah’s prophecies of the Babylonian destruction of Jerusalem would come true. In fact, it was for his prophecies, which were seen as pro-Babylonian, that the Babylonians had mercy on him and freed him. Ironically, he would later be captured by fellow Judeans and forced to go to Egypt, where it is likely that he died. His book is a fascinating exploration of God’s favor and judgment.B

The Heart of Man; Jeremiah 16-18
Not many people today like to talk about sin because our culture would rather find excuses for it than admit it is wrong. While it is true that God made humanity good, we did not stay good. God made us free to choose. God gave instructions to Adam and Eve, but they failed. They allowed doubt abou...
