In the time of destruction, Judah and Jerusalem are both dispersed. Motorcycles rushed across the bridge, speedboats speeded under, people dived from the cliff, and kayak flipped over to hide. All of sudden, the land is desolated; no one is walking around anymore! Then the film zoomed to a window where the cry of the daughter of Zion in labor was heard and the shadow of her movement was seen, gasping for breath, she stretched out her hand. Then Jeremiah jumped and pressed the fast forward button to see the people walking around morning in black funeral clothes for their only son! The end!
Closing credit shows: Your only chance is to "Circumcise yourselves to the Lord; remove the foreskin of your hearts." Actually, it isn't the end! God has promised that He "will not make a full end of you". To be continued!
After this horror movie, Jeremiah may go to sleep with blanket over his head! When we were children, we might do the same! It is up to us to conquer that fear and take the cover off and look under our bed with gut to find out if anything is there at all! Do we have a gut to look into our covered hearts, to get the foreskin off and take a look at it? If there is something under the bed, let's do something to kill those glowing eyes creature to be able to sleep peacefully! To kill all of those spirit of LIES with glowing eyes.
I think it is like how Israel remained covered under their bed without looking under their bed to find out that they are living the life of LIES. God sent Jeremiah to deliver His message to them, hoping that they will open their eyes and ears to Him. Will they take off their cover? God has promised them that He "will not make a full end of you".
"Truth shall set you free"
