When the Word of God is Offensive… We’re in Trouble

10 To whom can I speak and give warning?
Who will listen to me?
Their ears are closed
so they cannot hear.
The word of the Lord is offensive to them;
they find no pleasure in it. (Jer. 5:10, NIV)

When we quit listening to the Word of God because we don’t find it “to our taste,” we’re in trouble. We’re looking for pleasure in the Word when we need to be looking for truth. We need to hunger for the truth of the Kingdom and obedience to the Living Word.

We may very well be in trouble.
