Bible Question: How could God fight against His people ... and why? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Searcher56! Yes, the Lord Himself would not have compassion (v. 7) on His own people, and He set His face against them (v. 10) because of the evil of their deeds (v.12). "Many nations will pass by this city; and they will say to one another, 'Why has the LORD done thus to this great city?' Then they will answer, 'Because they forsook the covenant of the LORD their God and bowed down to other gods and served them.'" Jeremiah 22:8-9 - Nolan |
