The people of God have a Spiritual obligation to God Commandment

Jeremiah 3: 6; The Lord  said unto Me in the days of Josiah the King, Hast thou seen that which backsliding Israel hath done? she is gone up upon every high mountain and under every green tree, and there have plaid the harlot. Psalm 78: 5-8 For established a testimony in Jacob, and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our Fathers, that they should make them known to there Children: And that the generation to come might know them; even the Children: that they might set their hope in God. and not forget the works of God, but keep His  Commandments: And not be as their fathers, Stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that set not their heart aright,and whose spirit was not stedfast with God. 10, they keep not the Covenant of God, and refused to walk in the law;

Jeremiah 3: 23, Truly in vain is Salvation hoped for from the hills, and from the multitude of mountains: truly  in the Lord our God is the Salvation of Israel. We have sinned against the Lord our God, we and our Fathers, from our youth even unto this day, and have not obeyed  the voice of the Lord our God.] even though they tried after much pleading, and Jeremiah worked under very distressing circumstance, and God in His mercy wait for the Nation to repent.it is good to say I have Sinned, It is the starting point; but you need to repent and forsake your sin make a right a bout turn, back to God. God told Jeremiah to proclaim these words toward the North. and say Return, from your backsliding, acknowledge, thine iniquity, that thou hast transgressed against the Lord. God want His Children to be Salt and light in the World, and bring flavor,and Shine for Him. but the salt has lost it’s savor, and the light grow dim.      

Faithfulness, is on essential quality, for our Character as a Child of God. regardless of the Cost.

many Kings who rule the Northern kingdom eventually did evil against the Lord: and led the people astray; Their unfaithfulness cause the Assyrians to Captured the Kingdom. As punishment, God allow it. Jeremiah began his prophecy, against Judah by showing the people how unfaithful they were to God; and urge them to repent; or face punishment, from God, like  the North. Jeremiah 2: 2; God said to Jeremiah; go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying thus saith the Lord; I Remember thee  the kindness of thy youth and the love.of thine espousals, when thou went after me in the Wilderness.] Many believers have forgotten their first love; God is Saying Repent; and return to Him. God is great and full of grace and Compassion, He repeatedly Called for repentance, but since Social Virtues had disappeared; Sacrifices and Ritual failed as Substitutes for Repentance and Righteousness Judgment was inescapable.

Judah’s Sinfulness and her moral inability to help it self, prove once again how  much they need God. They became even more Stubborn,and stiff neck, against the truth of God. But in God mercy, who is also true to His Promise. Will cause a Remnant to return under Messiah’s rule.The rebellion of Judah had caused to wonder; hath the Nation forget God? or have they Change there gods? which are not really gods; God said, but my people have committed two evils, they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters: and hewed them out Cisterns, that can hold no water. 2:19, Thine own wickedness shall reprove thee: know therefore and that it is an evil thing and bitter, that thou hast forsaken the Lord thy God, and that my fear is not in thee, saith the Lord God of host. Prolong practice of willful  sinning by the people of God, or who claim to be God’s people,will punished So keep Short account with God, ask for forgiveness repent, and for sake your Sin, and live for God.

Jeremiah Was Appointed By God As A Prophet To The Nations Of The North,

Jeremiah 1:1-19, The words of Jeremiah the Son of Hilkiah, of the Priests that were in Anathoth in the Land of Benjamin:To whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the Son of Amon King of Judah, unto the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the Son of Josiah King of Judah, unto the carrying away of Jerusalem Captive in the fifth Month. and the word of the Lord came to me Saying Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and  and before thou camest forth out of the womb I Sanctified  thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the Nations. Then said I, Ah, Lord God I cannot Speak: for I am a Child. But the Lord said unto me, say not, I am a Child: For thou shall go to all that I have send thee. and whatsoever I Commanded thee thou shall speak. Be not afraid of there faces: For I am with thee, saith the Lord.Then the Lord put forth  His hand, and touch my mouth and the Lord said unto me, Behold, I have put my words in thy mouth.

Jeremiah Called By God to be a prophet;  His example Inspires Christians to persevere in proclaiming the Gospel. even when it is not popular. He was also called the weeping prophet; He saw the immorality, He saw the priest who should have known better walking contrary, and been un faithful to the Lord. So he weep. And in the end the wall fell, just like he said.He was called to be a prophet during the rain of the last five Kings; Joisah, Jehoahaz, Jehoiakin, Jehoicin, and Zedekiah, and other prophets like Habakkuk, and Zephaniah, during which Judah drifted from God and other foreign powers control their Land.

God said to Jeremiah  in verse 10, See I have this day set thee over the Nations, Over the Kingdoms, to root out, and pull down and to destroy and to throw down to build, to plant  V14, Then the Lord said  unto me, Out of the north an evil shall break forth upon all the inhabitants of the Land. For low I will call all the families of the north, saith  the Lord; and they shall come, and they shall set every one his throne at the entering of the gates of Jeremiah, and against all the walls thereof round about, and against all the cities of Judah.God give Jeremiah a work to do; and would not except excuses:

In verse 17 God said to Jeremiah; Gird up thy loins, and arise, and speak unto them all that I Command thee: Be not dismay at there faces, lest I confound thee before them.[Jeremiah was God warrior, who was also to be a watchman and a witness for God. Against King, against princes, against priest, against the People of the Land. They shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail. for I am with thee. saith the Lord, to deliver thee: Jeremiah’s Confidence in God was very important,[ As said in Hebrews 13:6, The Lords People Should Boldly Say,The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear, what Man Shall do unto Me.        

To The Beloved Caius, Whom I Love In Truth 3John

Beloved, I wish above all things things that thou mayest prosper and be in good health, even as thy soul prosper; For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee. Even as thou walkest in the truth. Beloved thou doest faithfully whatsoever thou doest to ward the brethren, and to strangers;   which have born witness of thy charity before the Church: [those Gentiles as they went out to preach the gospel take nothing on there journey and may have received Christian hospitality  from Gaius, and Demetrius] John writes to thank them.  8, We therefore ought to receive such, that we might be fellow helpers to the truth.

Diotrephes, whom John worn against, because he himself did not Received; the brethren, but Spoke against them maliciously. He was clearly the opposite  of what the followers of Christ Should be. John said, Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doth good is of God: They wrote to the Church, but DIotrephes, does not receive us and forbids those who wish to, receive them, he also put them out of the Church. May the Spirit of God rule and governed all our hearts. as we seek to live and work for Him.      

Beware Of Deceiver And Antichrist.

2 John 1-13, To the elect Lady and her Children, whom I Love.for the truths sake which dwelt in us, and shall be with us for ever; Grace mercy and peace, from God the father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ. The Son of the Father in truth and Love.I rejoiced greatly that I found my Children walking in truth; As we have received a Commandment from the Father.I wrote a new commandment unto thee, that which we had from the beginning, that we should walk in them. 7, For many  deceivers are entered into the world, who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh this is a deceiver and an antichrist.            

whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God.  He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.      If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God Speed: John exhorted Christians to live for Christ:    Speak the truth of God; live in a way that please Him and be aware of those who do not speak the truth of the gospel. The devil is an enemy that will lead you a stray; abide in the doctrine of Christ. and walk  according to His Commandment.

Greater Love Hath No Man Than This, That A Man Lay Down His Life For His Friends

1John 5:1, When we love God, we keep His Commandments; Who is he that overcomes the World, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God. In the gospel of John we read; 15:9-13, Jesus said, As the Father hath sent me; so send I you: Continue ye in My Love. These things have I spoken unto you, that My Joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be fill. This is My Commandment, that ye love one another, as I have Loved you. Greater Love hath no Man than this, that a Man lay down His life for His friends.1John 5:6, This is He that came by water and by blood; even Jesus Christ; and not by water only, but by water and by blood, And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

For there are three that bear record in heaven,The Father, the [ Son] word and the Holy Ghost, and these three are One. And there are three that beareth witness in Earth, The Spirit, the water, and the blood. and these agree in one. If you receive the witness of Man, the witness of God is greater: For this is the witness of  God which He hath testified of His Son. He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made Him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of His Son.

There are only one road to Salvation; One Way, The Only Way Jesus. The beginning and the End. There were dispute among false Teachers who had entered the Church, denying the deity of Christ John make his defense, because he knew Jesus,he walk with Him, lived with Him, Loved Him, watched Him die; went to the Empty Tomb; So he Stand on the truth of knowing and defending who Jesus is.The Christ, the Son of the living God. The reality of the incarnation of God in Christ is Salvation. A mere Man could not save the World, Only God Can and did.   

Test The Spirit Whether They Be Of God

1 John 4: 1-21:  Beloved, Believe not Every Spirit, but try the Spirits whether they be of God; because many false prophets are gone out into the World.  Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of Cod: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this the spirit of antichrist, they are of the World: therefore speak they of the world, and the world here them. We are of God: he that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us.  Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error. 9, In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent His Only begotten Son into the World, that we might live through Him.

Herein is Love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us,and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to loved one another. No Man hath seen God at any time. If we loved one another, God dwelleth in us,and his loved is perfected in us. And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the World. Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. And this  commandment have we from Him, that he who loveth God love his brother also.

John is telling us as Christians, to reject the lies of false teachers.  He said test the spirit, to see if they are of God.  In V.1- 6, we read about the spirit of truth and the spirit of error. V.7-Through 11, We know God through His great Love for us.  It was the Love of God that send the Lord Jesus Christ to the Cross.V,12-16 We see God though His Love for the whole World.17-19 There is no fear in love; but in Christ we have Boldness, 20-21;Obedience by faith.  This can only be done through faith in Jesus. God Love is everlasting. And if we abide in his Love we will by his grace, grow in love for God and others.
