    Jeremiah 6:1 Context

    1O ye children of Benjamin, gather yourselves to flee out of the midst of Jerusalem, and blow the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a sign of fire in Bethhaccerem: for evil appeareth out of the north, and great destruction. 2I have likened the daughter of Zion to a comely and delicate woman. 3The shepherds with their flocks shall come unto her; they shall pitch their tents against her round about; they shall feed every one in his place. 4Prepare ye war against her; arise, and let us go up at noon. Woe unto us! for the day goeth away, for the shadows of the evening are stretched out.

    When a believer dies, the body goes to the grave, the soul and spirit goes to God. Not all Christian believers will go up in the rapture or catching away as they haven't grown to that level. Some will have to endure the tribulation period of 3,5 yrs.

    At death, a sinner suffers a threefold separation of his being:

    his body goes to the grave, his soul goes to hell (sheol), and his spirit ascends upward to God. [ Ecc 3:21]

    In the Old Testament Dispensation, upon the death of a believer, his body went to the

    grave, and his soul and spirit went to Paradise, also called death and Abraham's bosom. After the Blood of Jesus was applied to the Mercy Seat in Heaven, the spirit and soul of a believer could go directly into the presence of the LORD ( II Corinthians 5:8).

    Born again Christians, upon death: their flesh bodies remain in their grave (where they were buried, or wherever they died).

    There is a scripture that "all souls belong to God".

    Your born again spirit goes to heaven to be with Christ until the moment of the Rapture.

    Then Jesus restores us to our resurrection body that is complete and will be with Him eternally, in Heaven.

    Our faith in Gods promises is what accomplished that which is hard for us to understand now. Faith puts doubts to rest. Put your faith in what God days. Faith is strong and able to Rest in what God has said.

    Remember Enoch? He loved God and fellowshipped with God. One day he just walked to heaven without dying...with his Lord. It was recorded in the Bible, so it happened. No body was found.

    Strong faith in God will carry you through any situation. God spoke it, it will be done.

    When faith wavers, run to the Lover of your Soul. He will never lose you or forsake you. You're not lost in a crowd. He knows right where you are.

    Tell others what you know to be true. Be strong in His faith.

    Barbara, may the Spirit grace you with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding. The traditions of man has distorted the true gospel. The traditions of man teaches heaven is a natural place with natural streets, natural buildings, natural walls and we exist much like we exist now; but the word of God teaches heaven is a person in a glorified body with no need for streets or houses or any thing existing in a natural state.

    John 3:13 No man has ascended up to heaven, but he (Christ in the same glorified body he existed in as Jehovah in the old testament) that came down from heaven (and became flesh), even the Son of man which is in heaven (now back in the glorified body he had before).

    Let's try to comprehend what is depicted as (spiritual) heaven (where the Spirit dwells).

    1 Corinthians 3:17 Know ye not that ye are the TEMPLE OF GOD, and the SPIRIT OF GOD dwelleth in you.

    Isaiah 66:1 Thus saith the Lord (the Father), The heaven is my throne, and the earth (dust, flesh) is my footstool: where is the house that ye (Christ) build unto me? and where is the place of my (SPIRIT) rest?

    Psalm 127:1 Except the Lord (Christ) build the house, they labour in vain .....

    Hebrews 3:6 But Christ as a Son over his own house, whose house we are....

    Revelation 3:21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I overcame and am sit down with my Father in his throne.

    John 17:21 That they ALL MAY BE ONE as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that THEY also may be ONE in us.....

    1 Timothy 6:16 Who (CHRIST) only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto....

    1 Corinthians 15:52-54 In a Moment....Death is swallowed up in victory.

    Isaiah 26:19 Thy dead men (we are dead in our trespasses) shall Live, TOGETHER WITH MY (CHRIST) DEAD BODY SHALL THEY ARISE....

    Revelation 20:5 .....This is the FIRST RESURRECTION.

    Luke 20:34-36 .....Being the CHILDREN OF THE RESURRECTION.

    John 14:2 In my Fathers house are many mansions...

    "Then when lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death." Like the seed of faith planted, it starts slow, but will surely grow well, when planted in good ground! negligible at first, but soon a tree that all the fowls of the air may hide and rest in!
  • MayJulia on Jeremiah 6:16 - 3 years ago
    All great actions and thoughts have a negligible beginning.
  • Obbie Beal on Jeremiah 6 - 4 years ago
    2020 is a repeat of the above and the whole world is there again. The hour has arrived Just as a women who is 8-months, 3-weeks, 6-days it shall come forth.... so shall all GOD said come to pass. If on desire SALVATION JOHN 3:16-21 will guide all to SALVATION. SALVATION KEEPS from the lake of fire. Thank GOD for SALVATION.
  • Marlo on Jeremiah 6 - 4 years ago
    Just a thought, but verses 22-26 sound like a prophecy fulfilled when Great Britain cam against the Abyssinian Kingdom of King Theodore in the late 1800's. For the Brits did indeed spoil them.
  • Crystal Leach on Jeremiah 6 - 5 years ago
    Saints as we get ready for our Groomsman our Saviour Jesus Christ and sound the alarm to the lost stay strong and know that the Lord is with you. We need to keep in the righteous ways and stay on the narrow path in all our ways. Keep going my brother keep going my sister. Please continue to read Jeremiah 6:18 in Jesus name may the Lord guide us in all we do.
  • Vanessa on Jeremiah 6 - 5 years ago
    you cant except the Lord and repent your sins, and then think you can go back to sinful ways, thinking your covered in the blood of Christ. When you except Christ you walk in his light, you choose a righteous path, otherwise it was only done in vain, outwardly not internally .. God Bless all, and pray for the lost always
  • Obbie Beal on Jeremiah 6 - 6 years ago

    Verse 13, "For from the least of them even unto the greatest of them 'everyone' is given to covetousness; and from the prophet even unto the priest every one dealeth falsely"...

    At that point in 'Time' God pasted a awesom judgement on that city/nation... in 2017 the cities / nations of the world has quilified for the same judgement... WOW, WOW, WOW!
  • A disciple on Jeremiah 6 - 6 years ago
    Well, we read it like this: a real man or woman of God will not trivialize any part of what it means to be saved, or how one gets saved. The Holy Spirit uses holy Saints to convict the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment. God commands all men everywhere to repent and believe the Gospel. Men of the world posing as Christian Pastors and Teachers water down the words of God to please men!
  • A disciple on Jeremiah 6 - 6 years ago
    "They have healed also the hurt of the daughter of my people *slightly, saying, Peace, peace; when there is no peace." - Slightly - Hebrew; qalal' - a prim. root; to be (caus. make) light; lit. (swift, small, sharp, etc.) or fig. (easy, trifling, vile, etc.) - abate, make bright, bring into contempt, (ac) curse, despise, (the) ease (-y; -ier); to make or esteem lightly, etc. How do you read this?
  • Irene123 on Jeremiah 6 - 6 years ago
    The church in Rev. that left it's first love was - Ephesus, not Laodacia. God spewed Laodacia from His mouth. Ephesus was salvageable; not so Laodacia.
  • BSP on Jeremiah 6 - 7 years ago
    God expressed his displeasure with the nation of Israel because they weren't sincere in their worship. Jehovah is not pleased with hypocritical worship.
  • Karen Ridgeway on Jeremiah 6 - 8 years ago

  • Stefanie on Jeremiah 6 - 8 years ago
    God shows His Graciousness Patience in this chapter, for although His Children deserved His Wrath and Judgment God sends His Prophet Jeremiah to woo His chosen land, Israel,back to their Heavenly Father despite their constant rebellion.
  • Barbara on Jeremiah 6:16 - 8 years ago
    This is the mind set of the world system and some who say they are Christians. God's Word is very clear on how and where He requires His children to walk. How in obedience. Where in His unchanging Word. In doing this we find His peace and enjoy His promised blessings. When we disobey we find our lives in untold disorder even as the people of Jeremiah's day.
  • Janjan on Jeremiah 6 - 8 years ago
    Let no man deceive you, follow the word of God it will keep us all on the right path. It may not be easy but God walks with us, we may have to go through but God directs us. We hang on to every word and promos of God, in Jesus name.
  • Gideon on Jeremiah 6:16 - 8 years ago
    Its a warning to false teachings ,the church has been corrupted by this teachings
  • Evang Ajanaku Mayowa Joshua on Jeremiah 6:16 - 8 years ago
    When we look at the things criticaly,especialy the way things were going on in this world,we can believe that nothing can give man a rest,money,position,children,power,even civiliasation doesn 't give 's us a rest,that is while Jesus said in matthew that will should come to Him and have rest for our selves,Jesus is the only way for who ever seek for rest
  • Jack on Jeremiah 6:16 - 8 years ago
    Christians we must stick to the word of God n be aware of the fake coming gods Satan .We should praise our Lord the same way at first and know
  • JAlabama on Jeremiah 6:16 - 9 years ago
    Just as in Jeremiah 's day, the church has left the old paths, trying to covert souls without repentance and no conviction. We are worried more about what music or style of worship will attract people and less about calling for repentance. No wonder today 's committed Christian remains committed only until the commitment becomes inconvenient. If you want revival, surrender all to Christ and let Him direct you in the "old paths ". We are like the church of Laodecia in Revelation, we have left our first love.
  • Ruelrofel on Jeremiah 6:16 - 9 years ago
    dont just jump into one decision . God has greater plan stored for us its up for us how to surrender our life to him God has a lot of options for us to follow seek him and you will find
  • Rhonda on Jeremiah 6 - 9 years ago
    Great
  • Bob on Jeremiah 6 - 9 years ago
    to those who have been called by his name, hear the voice of God and obey.
  • Natasha Johnson on Jeremiah 6:27 - 10 years ago
    Jeremiah 6 27 "I have made you an assayer and a tester among My people. I believe that God is making someone to be a tester among his people, just like an assayer would test metal but God 's talking about Spiritual testing. He wants them to see and feel what he does, so they can know what he feels about his people. Which is their stubbornly rebellious all of them and their all corrupt and much more.
  • Jerald Semar on Jeremiah 6 - 10 years ago
    Obedience is better than sacrifice and, the Lord loves a humble and contrite spirit however, it is not in man to walk uprightly before God except by the Holy Ghost but, these people could not walk in spirit by reason of their sins, they had become so carnal that, like their idols they had ears but, could not hear and, their hearts had become hard as stone. They could not blush or feel shame..they were lost in their sins and could not repent by reason of their uncircumcised hearts. Lord may we never stray so far that repentance becomes a stumbling block and an insult to our exaggerated pride.
  • Welemina on Jeremiah 6:16 - 10 years ago
    His word is so powerful; we must trust, if you ask he will give anything in his name.
