June 3, 2013 – Jeremiah 7

We see language in here about turning the Temple into a den of thieves.  That comes right from Christ when He cleanses the Temple. 

We see that when people turn away from God, they will get worse and worse.  The further away to go, the darker it gets because the light is further and further away.  But as you stumble in the dark, the light appears abrasive and to find yourself moving away from it, not towards it.  You begin to seek the darkness.  We need to always know that the light, no matter how far it seems, is only a turn away.  When we turn back towards God we can be immersed in the light and turn from the darkness.  The light is always there no matter how far we think it might be.
