Introduction
Jeremiah was a prophet who began his preaching ministry during the heyday of Josiah’s spiritual reformation and watched the nation slide down a slippery slope of wickedness that eventually ended in the total annihilation of the city of Jerusalem. Jeremiah’s story is one of both encouragement and discouragement. On the surface it may appear to be nothing more than discouraging. His ministry went from GREAT to BAD to WORST POSSIBLE SCENARIO.
