I will surely gather My people from all the lands to which I have banished them in My furious anger and great wrath, and I will return them to this place and make them dwell in safety. I will surely gather My peopleGod pledges to reverse the dispersion of Israel and to preserve the people with whom He made covenant. Though judgment had brought devastation, exile would not cancel His promises to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, David, and the nation of Israel. Jer 31:10 Hear, O nations, the word of the LORD, and proclaim it…
Deu 30:3 He will restore you from captivity and have compassion…
Ezk 11:17 Therefore declare that this is what the Lord GOD says:…
from all the lands to which I have banished them Israel’s scattering among foreign nations fulfilled the covenant warnings of Leviticus 26:33 and Deuteronomy 28:64. Assyria carried away the northern kingdom, and Babylon conquered Judah and Jerusalem. Yet no distance, political power, or national ruin could prevent God from bringing His people back to the land He had given them. Ezk 20:34 With a strong hand, an outstretched arm, and outpoured wrath…
Deu 30:4 Even if you have been banished to the farthest horizon,…
Lev 26:33 But I will scatter you among the nations…
in My furious anger and great wrath, The exile came because Judah persistently rejected the Lord through idolatry, injustice, and covenant rebellion. God’s anger was holy and righteous, not impulsive; He judged sin exactly as He had warned. Judgment, however, served His larger purpose of discipline and eventual restoration rather than the destruction of His covenant people. Jer 21:5 And I Myself will fight against you with a mighty arm…
Deu 29:28 The LORD uprooted them from their land in His anger…
2Ki 17:18 So the LORD was very angry with Israel…
and I will return them to this place Jerusalem and the land of Israel remained central to God’s promises. The return under Zerubbabel, Ezra, and Nehemiah demonstrated God’s faithfulness after the Babylonian captivity, while the wider prophetic hope anticipates Israel’s complete restoration under the reign of the Messiah. Jer 16:15 Instead they will say, ‘As surely as the LORD lives,…
Ezk 36:24 For I will take you from among the nations…
Deu 30:5 And the LORD your God will bring you into the land…
and make them dwell in safety. God promises more than a return from exile; He promises settled security under His care. Such peace requires spiritual renewal, which God later promises through a new heart, the cleansing of sin, and the indwelling work of His Spirit. The fullness of this security belongs to the future kingdom of Christ, the Prince of Peace. Deu 33:28 So Israel dwells securely; the fountain of Jacob lives…
Jer 33:16 In those days Judah will be saved, and Jerusalem will dwell…
Ezk 34:28 They will no longer be prey for the nations…

"Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh; is there anything too hard for Me?" (Jer. xxxii. 27.) Cyrus, the King, was compelled to fulfil the vision of Jeremiah, by making a decree, the instant the prophecy had foretold, declaring that Jehovah had bidden him rebuild Jerusalem and invite her captives to return to their native home. So Jeremiah's faith was vindicated and Jehovah's prophecy gloriously fulfilled, as faith ever will be honored. Oh, for the faith, that in the dark present and the darker …
Rev. A. B. Simpson—Days of Heaven Upon Earth Perseverance in Holiness
May the King himself come near and feast his saints to-day! May the Comforter who convinced of sin now come to cheer us with the promise! We noticed concerning the fig tree, that it was confirmed in its barrenness: it had borne no fruit, though it made large professions of doing so, and it was made to abide as it was. Let us consider another form of confirmation: not the curse of continuance in the rooted habit of evil; but the blessing of perseverance in a settled way of grace. May the Lord show …

Andrew Murray—The Two Covenants Why all Things Work for Good
1. The grand reason why all things work for good, is the near and dear interest which God has in His people. The Lord has made a covenant with them. "They shall be my people, and I will be their God" (Jer. xxxii. 38). By virtue of this compact, all things do, and must work, for good to them. "I am God, even thy God" (Psalm l. 7). This word, Thy God,' is the sweetest word in the Bible, it implies the best relations; and it is impossible there should be these relations between God and His people, and …

Andrew Murray—The Two Covenants Sanctification.
I. I will remind you of some points that have been settled in this course of study. 1. The true intent and meaning of the law of God has been, as I trust, ascertained in the lectures on moral government. Let this point if need be, be examined by reference to those lectures. 2. We have also seen, in those lectures, what is not, and what is implied in entire obedience to the moral law. 3. In those lectures, and also in the lectures on justification and repentance, it has been shown that nothing is …
Charles Grandison Finney—Systematic Theology Concerning Peaceableness
Blessed are the peacemakers. Matthew 5:9 This is the seventh step of the golden ladder which leads to blessedness. The name of peace is sweet, and the work of peace is a blessed work. Blessed are the peacemakers'. Observe the connection. The Scripture links these two together, pureness of heart and peaceableness of spirit. The wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable' (James 3:17). Follow peace and holiness' (Hebrews 12:14). And here Christ joins them together pure in heart, and peacemakers', …

'Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.' I Pet 1:1. The fifth and last fruit of sanctification, is perseverance in grace. The heavenly inheritance is kept for the saints, and they are kept to the inheritance. I Pet 1:1. The apostle asserts a saint's stability and permanence in grace. The saint's perseverance is much opposed by Papists and Arminians; but it is not the less true because it is opposed. A Christian's main comfort depends upon this doctrine of perseverance. Take …
Thomas Watson—A Body of Divinity Jeremiah
The interest of the book of Jeremiah is unique. On the one hand, it is our most reliable and elaborate source for the long period of history which it covers; on the other, it presents us with prophecy in its most intensely human phase, manifesting itself through a strangely attractive personality that was subject to like doubts and passions with ourselves. At his call, in 626 B.C., he was young and inexperienced, i. 6, so that he cannot have been born earlier than 650. The political and religious …
