The book of Jeremiah is a sobering read. As a prophet, he was tasked with calling the people of Israel to repent. To turn from their wicked ways of worshipping false gods and entertaining fruitless prophecies. Abandon their cruel ways of treating the most vulnerable among them with injustice and scorn. He points out that their self-sufficient lives were a form of disobedience and calls them to a life of radical repentance. These woes are not reserved only for the Israelites of old. Anyone who claims to be a follower of God needs to take an inventory of the themes littered throughout the book and evaluate if God is asking them to repent of the same offenses.
