<span style=”color: #444444; font-family: Lato; font-size: 14px;”>Jeremiah was nearly 20years old when he began to prophesy and continued for 40years or more.For most of his life he was poor, unpopular ,isolated and persecuted.Jeremiah lived in Judah for 40 years just before the people were exiled to Babylon,and his prophecies were collected into the book that bears his name The main message of his prophecy is simple.It is too late to avoid Gods discipline,so accept it and turn from your sins.His audiences discounted his warnings,they were angry with him and beat him and locked him up.Jeremiah lived to see the invasion and deportation of his people,the slaughter of Jerusalem’s inhabitants,and the destruction of the temple</span>
