Fake Faith & False Repentance

on February 3, 2020

Good morning. There are times when we will experience God’s anger. Many people don’t speak or preach about this, but God is sick of our sins. In Jeremiah he told Judah and those dwelling in Jerusalem that when calamity comes upon them he won’t even hear their prayers because they kept on sinning. On top of that he told them they worshipped all these other gods and they won’t help them either. The icing on the cake was when he told Jeremiah not to pray for them because he wouldn’t hear Jeremiah’s prayer concerning them. Let’s think about this for a moment. We can make God so mad that he won’t even hear us when we cry. He knows fake faith and false repentance when he see’s it and hears it. Many times we only say we’re sorry when we get caught doing wrong and truth be told we’re only sorry we got caught. Why is it when calamity comes we cry out to God for a minute then we are right back to business as usual. Play time is over, get right or get left.

Jeremiah 11:9-14 And the Lord said unto me, A conspiracy is found among the men of Judah, and among the inhabitants of Jerusalem. They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken my covenant which I made with their fathers. Therefore thus saith the Lord, Behold, I will bring evil upon them, which they shall not be able to escape; and though they shall cry unto me, I will not hearken unto them. Then shall the cities of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem go, and cry unto the gods unto whom they offer incense: but they shall not save them at all in the time of their trouble. For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Judah; and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem have ye set up altars to that shameful thing, even altars to burn incense unto Baal. Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear them in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.
