The people's disobedience - Jer.7:16-29

*A thought*: 

Israel's greatest sin was that of idolatry - replacing the true object of worship with one which made lesser demands. But God will brook no rival in His universe, and therefore idolatry must be removed. If we don't get rid of the idols in our lives by our own volition, 

then we give God no other option than to topple them Himself. 


*Week #30 Memory Verse*: 

John 14:15 

If you love Me, you will obey what I command.
