"Therefore now amend your ways and your doings, and obey the voice of the Lord your Cod; and the Lord will repent him of the evil that he hath pro nounced against you." (Jeremiah 26:13) LESSON TEXT: Jeremiah 7; 26; 52. . The central truth of thla lesson is that disobedience to' Godfa; ordinances inevitably enda in both personal and na. tlonal decay, and national disaster. If we are in any doubt on this score, we have only to re flect on the story of the downfall of Judah.aa depicted sd . graphically for ua in the Book of Jeremiah. Indeed, in our; own day and time we have witnessed In very recent years" the downfall of hitherto- great nations who went against Christian principles and beliefs. - - Judah would not live according to God's laws; neither would she heed the warnings that Jeremiah, at God'a bidding; gave to her On more than one occasion. Judah had suffered spiritually under the regime of king , ZedeUah; Idolatry was rampant, and the people only gave lip-service to the Lord in His Temple. They shirked the dis-' cipllne the Christian life would Impose upon them. They ig nored the fact that while they went through the motions of ' worship God knew r what was truly In their ftearta. Thus It was that Jeremiah refused Zedektah's command i to iaterceed for Judah, for he (Teremlah) believed that t Judah ha, sinned too long to escape the fate that was In ! tore for her,. And for this refusal, he was Imprisoned and ' exiled.. r ) Are' we, ourselves, entirely Innocent of the sins of the ' Judeansr Are we not equally guilty with them In tome of our attitudes? Our idols may Just be different wealth, posiv tton, our comfort and easel The broad, wide avenue of spiritual laxity is so much easier to travel than the thorny path of self-discipline and truth that God would have us ; tread k , tit. We are prone to take undue advantage of our fellow. men, and we, too, are sometimes blind to the fact that, al. ; - though God's punishments are sometimes seemingly exceed lngly harsh, they are always Intended, In love, to have a re- -, demptlve purpose. The eorsses we may be asked to bear V will invariably strengthen our spiritual awareness and dla- . cipllne our souls. We, In this day and time, are equally In need of respoo- i slblo God-motlvated leaders ... not hyp critee or rabble. ; rouaers. I .but Christian - oriented men who nave the eour- i , age to apeak out and call us to order. - . . We need to repent. We need to mend our spiritual fences. I We must ever be aware of the Inevitability of God's Judgment upon the, disobedient who ignore His ways and refuse to acknowledge guilt and the need for reformation.
