The Rechabites - Jeremiah 35 | David Brown

In the Book of Jeremiah Chapter 35 the Israelite nation is living in blatant disobedience to the word of God. The worship of idols has supplanted the worship of the living God and the Lord is extremely offended and displeased. In wanting to present an object lesson of obedience to His rebellious people, God commands the prophet Jeremiah to gather the family of the Rechabites, the children of Jonadab the son of Rechab, into the house of the Lord (the temple) and invite them to drink wine.
Early in this message, one gets the impression from Brother David Brown that this is going to be another sermon on the evils of drinking alcoholic beverages. While that is a topic worthy of being preached before any Christian church congregation, Brother Brown reveals a more profound issue being addressed in this passage of holy scripture-how the Rechabites respond to Jeremiah's invitation stands in stark contrast to the way Israel and Judah have responded to the Lord's invitation to repent and restore fellowship with Him.
The Rechabites serve as an object lesson. The lesson being...the blessedness of obedience to the word of God.

I knew about the Rechabites because of my personal study of the book of Jeremiah. This was the first sermon I ever heard on this chapter. All I could say is Amen!!!

[@hectorgonzalez8246]

A very good object lesson indeed. It is needful for everyone to be reminded That God blesses obedience. Thank you Pastor Brown

Great Bible preaching! And very convicting

[@paulremnantone1102]

This was a great message. Can you see the Parrel between Jeremiah chapter 23-35 and what’s happening now! The rechabites and what I would call the remnant now days. Only the remnant will survive what’s coming!

[@WaimakBibleChapel]

Amen brother I can’t believe the quality and soundness of preachers in this church. God bless you all.

Deuteronomy 14:26 26 And thou shalt bestow that money for WHATSOEVER THY SOUL LUSTETH AFTER, for oxen, or for sheep, or for WINE, or for STRONG DRINK, OR FOR WHATSOEVER THY SOUL DESIRETH: and thou shalt eat there before the LORD thy God, and thou shalt rejoice, thou, and thine household,

Another point to be made is that even though Jeremiah was a prophet and he obeyed Yah in setting up the wine, he did not say, as he usually did, "Thus says the Lord, drink this wine." The Reckobites did not have to obey Jeremiah because he did not say that. He simply said, "Drink this wine." It showas us that we do not obey any directive unless the directive comes from Yahuah.
