Israel

Matt 11 (AV) "Anna Version"
Jesus says "I played the flute for you...but did you dance? And I played the funeral dirge but you did not lament"

So what is He really saying? He revealed Himself for who He was, a ravished bridegroom God, and His people did not respond. He said that He would not return until Jerusalem says "Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord". What will it take for this to happen? What will God do to turn the hearts of His people? God is a lover, a jealous lover who desires His people. He will not relent until He has their WHOLE hearts.
Deuteronomy 4:24 "For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God."
Proverbs 6:34 "For jealousy is a husband's fury, He will not spare in the day of vengeance"
Proverbs 27:4 "Wrath is cruel, and anger a torrent, but who can stand before jealousy?"

He won't relent until He has it all...for the sake of Love.
