TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

BIBLE TEXT: “Jerusalem hath grievously sinned; therefore she is removed: all that honoured her despise her, because they have seen her nakedness: yea, she sigheth, and turneth backward. Her filthiness is in her skirts; she remembereth not her last end; therefore she came down wonderfully: she had no comforter. O Lord, behold my affliction…” (Lamentations 1:8-9a)

BIBLE TWEET: Suddenly gone, over her grievous sins, Jerusalem had been discarded like a menstruous and immodest harlot, whose former lovers now loathed and forsook her.

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: Like Jerusalem, all who delight in the immediate pleasures of sin fail to consider not only sin’s eventual and inescapable consequences, but also their own inevitable end.
