Sermon: Problem with Authority ("Expositing Jeremiah" series)

The life of Jeremiah is one which experienced good times under a good king, trials under bad kings, exile, and finally visions of redemption for God's people. His life and his writing show us a lot about the nature of God and his faithfulness to covenant. In this third message, look at Jeremiah's statements to the political and religious authorities in his day. We see their reaction and God's final promise of restoration. This challenges us to ask ourselves: in what do we place our trust? Something of this world, or the one who knows the plans He has for us?
