“11 Then shalt thou say unto them, Because your fathers have forsaken me, saith the Lord, and have walked after other gods, and have served them, and have worshipped them, and have forsaken me, and have not kept my law;
12 And ye have done worse than your fathers; for, behold, ye walk every one after the imagination of his evil heart, that they may not hearken unto me:
13 Therefore will I cast you out of this land into a land that ye know not, neither ye nor your fathers; and there shall ye serve other gods day and night; where I will not shew you favour.” Jeremiah 16:11-13 King James Version
“5 Thus saith the Lord; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the Lord.” Jeremiah 17:5 King James Version
“7 Blessed is the man that trusteth in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord is.” Jeremiah 17:7 King James Version
The Israelites having been delivered from Egypt into the promised land had Gods blessing until they decided to serve idols and go there own way. God expressly stated to them the consequences of their actions and they didn't care. God dispersed them to other lands and to suffer the consequencesof their actions.
On May 14, 1948 God brought the Israelites back to Israel and created the nation in one day fulfilling prophecy.
God the Father sent Jesus the Son to redeem the world from its sin. Jesus did this by dying on the cross as a final sacrifice for men. Human beings must accept this gift by receiving Jesus as Lord and Savior. This means turning from going our way and seeking God's (Yahweh) will and doing it His way. How do we know God's way? His revealed will is in the Bible. The more you study it the more you are likely to become more like Jesus.
The world needs to see Jesus and the gift he offers them.
