God's Way Is The Only Good Way: The World and Our Own Flesh Betray Us

 Jeremiah 6:16-21

¹⁶  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. But they said, We will not walk therein.
¹⁷  Also I set watchmen over you, saying, Hearken to the sound of the trumpet. But they said, We will not hearken.
¹⁸ Therefore hear, ye nations, and know, O congregation, what is among them.

¹⁹  Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my law, but rejected it.

²⁰  To what purpose cometh there to me incense from Sheba, and the sweet cane from a far country? your burnt offerings are not acceptable, nor your sacrifices sweet unto me.

²¹  Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.  

Let us all take God's Word seriously, for He is in earnest to redeem our souls from sin and our self-centeredness. Without our choice to repent  of our sin and place our faith in God's Christ, we paddle our own canoe to eternal suffering. Eternal never ends. Please choose God's Way.

As It Was In Old Israel, So It Is In The USA Today

 Jeremiah 2:20-28

²⁰ For of old time I have broken thy yoke, and burst thy bands; and thou saidst, I will not transgress; when upon every high hill and under every green tree thou wanderest, playing the harlot.

²¹  Yet I had planted thee a noble vine, wholly a right seed: how then art thou turned into the degenerate plant of a strange vine unto me?
²²  For though thou wash thee with nitre, and take thee much soap, yet thine iniquity is marked before me, saith the Lord GOD.
²³  How canst thou say, I am not polluted, I have not gone after Baalim? see thy way in the valley, know what thou hast done: thou art a swift dromedary traversing her ways;
²⁴  A wild ass used to the wilderness, that snuffeth up the wind at her pleasure; in her occasion who can turn her away? all they that seek her will not weary themselves; in her month they shall find her.
²⁵  Withhold thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from thirst: but thou saidst, There is no hope: no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.
²⁶  As the thief is ashamed when he is found, so is the house of Israel ashamed; they, their kings, their princes, and their priests, and their prophets,
²⁷  Saying to a stock, Thou art my father; and to a stone, Thou hast brought me forth: for they have turned their back unto me, and not their face: but in the time of their trouble they will say, Arise, and save us.
²⁸  But where are thy gods that thou hast made thee? let them arise, if they can save thee in the time of thy trouble: for according to the number of thy cities are thy gods, O Judah.    

As it was in old Israel, that the went whoring after all manner of false gods, so our people and Nation do, today, in the USA. We need to repent of our sin and return unto the One True Living God and His only Christ, Jesus.
