Jer 11:1-10 | MHCC | STEP | The disobedient Jews reproved. ( ) Their utter ruin. ( ) The people would be destroyed who sought the prophet's life. ( ) Verses 1-10 God never promised to bestow blessings on his rational creatures, while they persist in wilful disobedience. Pardon and acceptance are promised freely to all believers; but no man can be saved who does not obey the command of God to repent, to believe in Christ, to separate from sin and the world, to choose self-denial and newness of life. In general, men will hearken to those who speak of doctrines, promises, and privileges; but when duties are mentioned, they will not bend their ear.

Jeremiah 11:1-10

Chapter 11

The disobedient Jews reproved. (Jr 11:1-10) Their utter ruin. (Jr 11:11-17) The people would be destroyed who sought the prophet's life. (Jr 11:18-23)

Verses 1-10 God never promised to bestow blessings on his rational creatures, while they persist in wilful disobedience. Pardon and acceptance are promised freely to all believers; but no man can be saved who does not obey the command of God to repent, to believe in Christ, to separate from sin and the world, to choose self-denial and newness of life. In general, men will hearken to those who speak of doctrines, promises, and privileges; but when duties are mentioned, they will not bend their ear.
