Jeremiah 31:1

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Jeremiah 31:1. At the same time, faith the LORD, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people.

How divinely he talks, - as only God can talk These people had rejected him, yet he says, "They shall be my people," not only some of them, but all of them: "I will be the God of all the families of Israel." Behold the wonderful power of divine grace upon the hearts of rebellious sinners. There are no "ifs" and no "buts" here; it is "I will" and "they shall." God knows how to work out his own purposes of love and mercy.
