The New Covenant coming! Jeremiah buys property in a neighborhood that may soon be destroyed! Why?

Rome, phase 4: Papal Rome, the Roman Catholic System. Rome did not end when the Empire ended. Rome still lives. Comparison of the Old testament background of Babylon with the New testament background of Rome. Two powers strikingly alike!

Jeremiah is commissioned to write a letter to those who have already gone into exile. They are encouraged to make the best of it there, and look forward to their restoration.

Rome, the Eternal City (says man). Rome replaces Greece. Phases 1, 2, and 3 of Rome.

The whole world to be judged. Plan to murder Jeremiah is thwarted. Israel and surrounding nations' peoples to submit to Nebuchadnezzar or die! Hananiah's false prophecy and its result.

The third kingdom Daniel saw was the Greek Empire of Alexander the Great, who unified much of the world under his reign. After his death and many struggles of his generals, the kingdom narrowed down to two separate and rival kingdoms. In other words, Greece follows the same contours as the human body.

The coming of the Branch! False prophets who go but are not sent. How the false prophets speak out of their own imaginations... like today?

The broken jar and what it meant. Pashhur punishes Jeremiah and is cursed. Jeremiah's message for King Zedekiah. Jeconiah ends the royal line of Solomon.

We are in Daniel 2, beholding the statue in the dream of King Nebuchadnezzar. God has told us what the dream means. Here's the beginnig, the head of gold and the chest and arms of silver, the first and second kingdoms.

This is good. Spugeon takes the simple but powerful statement of Paul, "God justifies the ungodly" and drives it home with such accurate force as to make any believer hear and rejoice.
