Jeremiah 16:19-21 World English Bible (WEB)
19 Yahweh, my strength, and my stronghold, and my refuge in the day of affliction, to you shall the nations come from the ends of the earth, and shall say, Our fathers have inherited nothing but lies, vanity and things in which there is no profit. 20 Shall a man make to himself gods, which yet are no gods? 21 Therefore behold, I will cause them to know, this once will I cause them to know my hand and my might; and they shall know that my name is Yahweh.
Every time I hear a Messianic, SDA, or Hebrew Roots Movement always quote this verse stating we have been passed down lies from our fore fathers, in regards to anything from the Name, Sabbaths, the law, rapture, tithe, baptist, etc, and why their movement is correct when they discovered the truth and why modern day Christianity is wrong.
If this is really true, why would God allow his word to be corrupted or for lies to be purposely passed down regarding anything about him, since the word was inspired by the Holy Spirit and is supposed to be a vital part of our lives and then passed down, only for his followers to fight over it and start religion after religion when they think they discover errors?
