Jeremiah 21 (Click It)

v.1-2
Look at the incredible CREDIBILTY that jeremiah carries with the King! The king knows that Jeremiah is a prophet!

v.3-7
Jeremiah's answer from the LORD: scathing for the army and leaders.

v.8-10
the answer for the city and the people.

v.11-14
answer for the house of the King...

all of this because of their insincerity in repentance and their obstinacy in rebellion. Remember, if they had, just for a generation, relented in their pursuit of sin and selfish gain, God would have rained mercy on them.

This is how it gets when the people of God (the church, not America) persist in following the god of this world (satan) and his system (self-interest/pride) by his power (mammon).

There's a scripture that says, "It is time for judgment to begin at the house of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the end of those who do not obey the gospel of God?" (1 Peter 4:17)

America is a World-System Nation, bathed in blood, with mammon pumping through it's veins. Don't confuse the Jeremiah judgements as being for America. They are for the church, primarily. America is more like Babylon, who is used to persecute the disobedient. Judgment has been set for all the nations.

Check out this scripture on that idea.
