Synopsis: The prophet Jeremiah penned a letter to the Jews God carried captive to Babylon, and he urged them to settle down, plant gardens and raise families because it would be a long captivity. He also addressed false prophets who deceived the people who would be punished for teaching rebellion against God. God has spoken the truth, and we ought to trust and wait on Him.

Synopsis: A false prophet from Gibeon named Hananiah came to Jerusalem and contradicted God's word spoken through Jeremiah.

Remembering the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ leads us to celebrate Him and all Jesus has accomplished for Christians by His grace. Disciples in Jesus' day struggled with unbelief and hardness of heart, and after He ascended to heaven some did not comprehend the importance of the resurrection. The resurrection of Jesus is critical to the Gospel, for without it none could be forgiven or saved.

Synopsis: Good Friday is one example of how God makes all things work together for good to those who know God and are called according to His purpose. The chief priests, people and Pilate all made decisions that resulted in Jesus being crucified and dying for the sins of the world. Joseph of Arimathea was brave to honour Jesus in death, the Saviour who would rise from the dead and reigns in glory.

Synopsis: Jeremiah was tasked by God to make yokes, to wear one himself, and send them to kings with a message that God had determined they were to serve Nebuchadnezzar. Jeremiah learned by troubles and trials the LORD was his portion, and he hoped and waited quietly for salvation. Jesus bids all those who are burdened to take His yoke upon them, and those who submit to Jesus will be strengthened and lifted up.

The word of the LORD came to Jeremiah and directed him to stand in the temple and speak God's word to all who went there to worship God. Initially the people were inclined to execute Jeremiah, but God gave him favour with the princes and elders. King Hezekiah provided a good example for them to follow, and Jesus Christ is the one we are to look to and obey.

There was hope for anyone who would repent of their sin and return to the LORD, yet the kings and people were not inclined to listen.
