Title: Fire Cell Pt. 3 This Ain’t That
Point 1: You
have to pass the people test vs. 6

treacherously with you; they are in full cry after you; do not believe them,
though they speak friendly words to you.”
Point 2: You
have to pass the pain test 20: 1 – 3
- When the priest Pashhur son of Immer, the official in charge of the temple of
the Lord, heard Jeremiah prophesying these things, 2 he had Jeremiah the
prophet beaten and put in the stocks at the Upper Gate of Benjamin at the
Lord’s temple. 3 The next day, when Pashhur released him from the stocks,
Jeremiah said to him, “The Lord’s name for you is not Pashhur, but Terror on
Every Side.
