In this edited sermon, I consider Jeremiah 45 in historical, grammatical and literary context. Baruch has been called away from a life of promise to play second fiddle to a hated prophet… to share in Jeremiah’s suffering and rejection. He is less than excited by the call and reacts accordingly in Jeremiah 45.
YHWH has a word for him, however, a word of warning and promise.
This is a message for anyone who feels the tension between their own will for their life and God’s will for their life… i.e. everyone.
Enjoy!
