Jeremiah 14:15
Assamese - 2019 (ইণ্ডিয়ান ৰিভাইচ ভাৰচন (IRV) আচামিচ - 2019)
What Does This Mean?
In this verse, the Lord is speaking about false prophets who claim to speak in His name but were not sent by Him. These prophets falsely predict that there will be no sword and famine in the land, but the Lord warns that they will face the very things they denied.
Explained for Children
Imagine you have a friend who always says, 'No way we're getting in trouble,' but really, your friend is the one who gets in trouble because they tell lies. God is like a parent who knows the truth and warns that those who lie about what He says will face the very trouble they tried to deny.
Historical Background
Jeremiah 14:15 was written by the prophet Jeremiah during the 7th century BC. Jeremiah was addressing the Israelites who were about to face the Babylonian invasion. The false prophets were misleading the people with false promises of safety, which angered God.
Living It Out Today
In a modern scenario, if someone claims to represent a company or an organization but is actually misleading people, they might face consequences like losing their job or facing legal action. This verse teaches that speaking falsely in the name of something or someone can lead to severe outcomes.
