Jeremiah Chapter 25 vs. 15-17 Starts : " For thus says the Lord GOD of Israel to me " Take this wine cup of fury ( Smoking cup ) from my hand, and cause all the nations to whom I send you to drink it." " And they will drink and stagger and go mad because of the sword that I will send among them. Jeremiah the Prophet had been prophesieing the same message of obedience to Jerusalem & Judah  under 3 different KINGS for 23 years. However, the Nations rejected his message. God even sent other Prophets to them , yet they still refused to accept it.  GOD had been patient until now. HE has decided to use a Pagan nation Babylon that just defeated the Egyptians and is now the #1 World Power to attack, abuse, dominate and enslave the Nations of Jerusalem & Judah for the time of 70 years. Strangely GOD tells the Prophet Jeremiah that KING Nebuchannazer of babylon is HIS servant. How can an unrighteous, Unholy and pagan KING be the servant of a HOLY God ? * again i ask you what's in the cup your drinking tonight ?
