In this sermon, we studied the book of Jeremiah, where God reveals how Israel had become a deceitful bride, chasing after lesser loves while He remained the faithful husband who pursued her still. In the midst of judgment, Jeremiah pointed to a coming hope on a day when God would raise up a Righteous Branch from David's line, a King who would reign with wisdom, justice, and righteousness. That promise is fulfilled in Jesus, the true and faithful King who took our sin upon Himself so that we might stand in His righteousness. Through His blood, the new covenant was established, not written on stone, but written on our hearts and brought to life by the Spirit. This is the gospel story: the faithful Husband redeeming His unfaithful bride, restoring what was lost, and writing His love into the very fabric of our hearts forever.
