JEREMIAH 21

ONLY THOSE WHO REPENT WILL BE SAVED 

Judah’s final king, Zedekiah, sends Jeremiah messages regarding Nebuchadnezzar, the king of Babylon. Jeremiah knows that those who remain in Jerusalem will die during the Babylonian takeover, either by the sword, famine, or plague, as God has spoken in Jeremiah 14.

Only those who turn to God will be saved. Jeremiah warns the leaders of Judah to act with justice and righteousness before the coming judgment. The account of Judah being overthrown by Babylon is recorded in 2 Kings 24.
