stupid shepherds
1
"For the shepherds have become stupid
and have not sought the Lord."
Jeremiah 10:21
-57% of evangelical Christians say that multiple religions can lead to salvation.*
We live in a day much like the one that Jeremiah lived in. He declared, "Those who handle the law do not know Me (God)" (Jeremiah 2:8). Can you imagine? A pastor of a church? A minister who proclaims the Word of God each Sunday? Not even having a relationship with the One he/she supposedly represents?
"An appalling and horrible thing has happened
in the land; the prophets prophesy falsely,
and the priests rule on their own authority;
and My people love it so!
But what will you do at the end of it?"
Jeremiah 5:30-31

Jeremiah 5:30-31
Can you imagine? A pastor running his church based on the principles of a best selling book rather than the Word of God? A minister or Bible school professor replacing the innerant/infallible Scripture with his own ideas and calling them "The Bible?"
Well, it happened in Jeremiah's day...
And it's happening RIGHT NOW!
