It is approximately 593 BC when Jeremiah records his work in Jeremiah 28. It is at the beginning of the reign of Zedekiah king of Judah and there are many false prophets who are speaking to the king and people. Interestingly, this is not unlike our present day: There are many words
being given in the name of God. How do you know who is telling the truth and who is not? If all we do is listen to prophets, then we can run into a lot of confusion. The best way to gain clarity to all of this is to read and understand what God has already said in His Word. God does not
contradict Himself and does not aim to confuse us. In today’s reading, we will see how deceptive some prophets can be. They may prophesy what feels good to us, they may prophesy for profit, they may prophesy to gain a following, all of these are wrong motivations. The truth is often not so convenient for prophets – it often does not make them popular. The reason is simple: sin. God must confront our sin and our world is covered in it. Bringing God’s truth to the world often means conflict.

Falsely Accused; Jeremiah 36-38
Christians serve Jesus Christ, who is fully God and fully man, and the firstborn of eternal life in human flesh. Right now, we serve the Lord Jesus in a world that is fully submerged in sin—the opposite of God—God is sinless, while we are sinful as human beings. Sin entered the heart of
man when ... -
A Time of Peace; Jeremiah 39-41
The date was about 586 BC. God had destroyed Jerusalem, so there was a time of peace that came for Jeremiah. He had suffered under his own people because he had prophesied many times that the king of Babylon would succeed. Now the king of Babylon had put a man named Gedaliah in place as governor ...
