Hello friends,am sure its always a great lesson to know and to understand more of God's word.
What is the old path?
In the book Jeremiah 6:16
The right path/Old path is the path of the lord.
God demanded that we should seek and find the old path and to also walk in it.
This old path must be an important path,thats why God told us to walk in it.
Ephesians 2:10 (KJV) For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
According to bro Eli's explanation
This old path was already prepared
Just like a railway is fixed before the train passes through it.
Jeremiah 6:16 (KJV) Thus saith the LORD, Stand ye in the ways, and see, and ask for the old paths, where is the good way, and walk therein, and ye shall find rest for your souls. But they said, We will not walk therein.
Right from the olden days,there where people who rebelled against God by not following the path way.
Isaiah 56:11 (KJV) Yea, they are greedy dogs which can never have enough, and they are shepherds that cannot understand: they all look to their own way, every one for his gain, from his quarter.
And in todays world we still have so rebellious people,who are greedy,they use religion as a means of profits and they are refered as greedy people in the bible.
They are people who worship in a particular manner which was invented by their pastors.or leaders.
But in Jeremiah 6:16 God is still warning us againt taking such path way
He wants us to return to the old path way.
And here is the old path way ,it is the way of the lord which was prepared long ago before us
Here is the best way for us to be sure,
Gods commandments and his teachings.
This ,points us into the old path which is the right path.
Lastly dear friends,the best way for us to be able to follow this old path is for us to let go of earthly things and forcus our minds in God
The Old Path was laid out for us long ago that we may walk in it. It is the right path every Christian should follow
