Jeremiah 6:16 Thus saith the Lord, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
The people of God were lead astray by the false prophets and leaders of their day. They were taken into Babylonian captivity just as Jeremiah prophesied. They refused to follow the old paths of their fathers.
What about our day? Today many people refuse to walk in the old paths, such as believing salvation through the blood ---- belief in the infallible, inerrant, inspired Word of God ---- the reality of Heaven And Hell ---- the value of the human soul ---- the soon return of Jesus ---- the holiness of God.
No matter what the world does or thinks, let us, the people of the Lord, stand tall in the old paths, the way God has ordained. God hasn’t changed. There’s a reward for those who walk in the old paths.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
