Baruch GNT

In the midst of destruction you can still be victorious if you are right with God. God does promise peace, and security but He does not necessarily mean that in this life. He a majority of the time means that in the spirit. If you are right with Him your security is forever. This book covers the calamity of the Jews being taken away from their holy land. They state in this book they are suffering from the sins of their ancestors, yet they pleaded with God for redemption. They collect money to send to the temple in Jerusalem for the priests to purchase offerings to sacrifice with the Lord in hopes of repentance. Remember that the Lord is an equalizer of all people. No matter your wealth, property or status, in the midst of God all are equal and the greatised will be the least among you. Hear the wisdom of God for this is rightiness that God is seeking, not goats and bulls, yet He will always love his people when they turn from sin. God is a God of second chances. Peace is not achieved through external means, but from within through wisdom and purity, which leads to perfection in God, through Christ. Amen
