I give my sheep eternal life. They will never die, and no one can take them out of my hand. My Father is the one who gave them to me, and he is greater than all. No one can steal my sheep out of his hand.
John 10:28-29 ERV

It is the same with you. You heard the true message, the Good News about the way God saves you. When you heard that Good News, you believed in Christ. And in Christ, God put his special mark on you by giving you the Holy Spirit that he promised.

Ephesians 1:13 ERV

God is the one who gave us the law, and he is the Judge. He is the only one who can save and destroy. So it is not right for you to judge anyone.
James 4:12 ERV

When anyone is in Christ, it is a whole new world. The old things are gone; suddenly, everything is new! All this is from God. Through Christ, God made peace between himself and us. And God gave us the work of bringing people into peace with him.
2 Corinthians 5:17-18 ERV

And the idols he shall utterly abolish; rather, and the idols shall utterly pass away. While the visitation shall fall only partially on the other objects precious to Israel – the cedars, the oaks, the terraced mountains and hills, the strongholds, the ships, and the works of art – the idols shall be wholly swept away by it.
Isaiah 2:18

So for Jesus attachment was the key to detachment. And it is the key for us too! Author Adele Ahlberg Calhoun says, “Detachment finds its true home in attachment to Jesus only.”

John 2:23-25 ESV

My Lord, I am only a poor, helpless man,
but please pay attention to me.
You are my helper, the one who can save me.
My God, don’t be too late.
Psalm 40:17

Yes, I am sure that nothing can separate us from God’s love—not death, life, angels, or ruling spirits. I am sure that nothing now, nothing in the future, no powers, nothing above us or nothing below us—nothing in the whole created world—will ever be able to separate us from the love God has shown us in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Question:
What was the age that Jeremiah was called to be a prophet?
Answer:

Jeremiah was called to the prophetic ministry in the thirteenth year of the reign of King Josiah, when he was approximately twenty years of age. He received God’s call at a young age, probably as a teenager. Although the account of his call is brief, Jeremiah was divinely informed that he had been created, sanctified, and ordained to be a prophet.
It reads in Jeremiah 1:4-6 Easy-to-Read Version>
The Lord’s message came to me: “Before I made you in your mother’s womb, I knew you. Before you were born, I chose you for a special work. I chose you to be a prophet to the nations.” Then I said, “But, Lord God, I don’t know how to speak. I am only a boy.”

Question:

In the book of Jeremiah, what was Jeremiah’s wisdom?

Answer:
In the book of Jeremiah, the prophet Jeremiah communicates profound wisdom. Let’s explore a couple of key passages:

Jeremiah 9:23-24 (NIV):

The Lord says: “Let not the wise boast of their wisdom or the strong boast of their strength or the rich boast of their riches, but let the one who boasts boast about this: that they have the understanding to know me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice, and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight”.
Here, Jeremiah emphasizes that true wisdom lies in knowing God and living justly and righteously.
Jeremiah 10:12:

“The Lord made the earth by His power; He established the world by His wisdom and stretched out the heavens by His understanding”.
Jeremiah acknowledges God’s wisdom as the foundation of creation.
Jeremiah 8:9:

“Your wise men have rejected what I say, and so they have no wisdom. Now they will be trapped and put to shame; they won’t know what to do”.
Jeremiah warns that rejecting God’s word leads to a lack of true wisdom.
In summary, Jeremiah’s wisdom revolves around recognizing God’s sovereignty, practicing kindness and justice, and seeking understanding.
