We Need Some Weeping Prophets
An African American pastor friend who I greatly love and respect from the Chicago suburbs called me a couple of days ago and asked me, an interesting question: “Who is the prophet to whom the modern culture can turn? No, that’s not it . . .” He was struggling to actually state what his real question was. We hashed it around for a while trying to make sure that I understood what he was asking and…

Do Not Pray for Israel
In our weekly Bible study chat, we discuss Jeremiah chapter 9 via livestream at 11 AM PST
Heed the Watchmen
We have a chance to proclaim the good news of the Gospel to them that have no hope. They won't all listen. In fact, many won't. HEED the WATCHMEN.
Heed the watchmen.
Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls.
Jeremiah 6:12
“The good old days” seem to be gone, don’t they? It was a lot like that in Jeremiah’s time too. He even seemed to say some of the same things so many believers still say today.
Just in another…

So I know now for a fact that God is trying to speak to me through the book of Jeremiah and I don’t know what it is. It started with me dragging myself though the book and then being happy I finished it. But it’s not done with me, it keeps coming back. It’s in every lesson, every message. it’s going to be a class 3 sundays in a row. It’s no coincidence. Last Sunday when she started about the book I was like really God? Friday night’s message was in that book. Yesterday Jeremiah was referenced again. Today instead of going to mom’s church (which I missed out bc my mom told me my pastor was puertoriqueno desde la cabeza a los pies YESSSSS my type of preaching) I went to my dad’s church and the class was... yes in Jeremiah. Now to finally end this, my mom asked me to help her (she trying to slide me in there) study the book of Jeremiah because she got signed up to give the class for the youth on sunday. There is no such thing as coincidence. I mean when I remember the book, one thing that I feel like I have in common with Jeremiah is that we both CRY A LOT. He’s known as the “weeping prophet” and I call myself “weeping illy.”
IF you read this and know anything about the book, I’d really like to know what you think of it or how it speaks to you.
The “weeping prophet,” Jeremiah, described his fallen people: “Remember, O LORD, what has come upon us; Look, and behold our reproach! Our inheritance has been turned over to aliens, And our houses to foreigners. We have become orphans and waifs, Our mothers are like widows. We pay for the water we drink, And our wood comes at a price. They pursue at our heels; We labor and have no rest. We have…
