Promises (2/2)

But I will be merciful only if you stop your evil thoughts… Jeremiah 7:5-7

But I will be merciful only if you stop your evil thoughts and deeds and start treating each other with justice; only if you stop exploiting foreigners, orphans, and widows; only if you stop your murdering; and only if you stop harming yourselves by worshiping idols. Then I will let you stay in this land that I gave to your ancestors to keep forever.
Jeremiah 7:5-7 conversion widows orphans
But now Jesus, our High Priest, has been given a ministry that is far superior to the old priesthood, for he is the one who mediates for us a far better covenant with God, based on better promises.
Hebrews 8:6 Jesus covenant mediator

Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised.
