70. Chapter 4 [Jeremiah] 1, 2 Exhortation to refrain from evils and to acknowledge the Lord, from whom those who are in goods and truths will have salvation. 2 3, 4 Unless they refrain and turn back, they will utterly perish. 2 5, 6 Those who will acknowledge must be removed while the destruction lasts, 2 7 because devastation of all things of the church is at hand, 3 8 which does not come to an end through outward mourning, 3 9, 10 nor through complaints that they are perishing, although it is said in the Word that they shall be saved. 3 11, 12 It is answered that they are not willing to acknowledge and receive. 3 13 Falsities are breaking in. 3 14, 15 Corruption of the church. 3 16 in respect to doctrine, 3 17 in respect to the Word. 3 18-21 Lamentation thereat. 3 22 There is no longer any understanding of truth. 3 22-27 All things of the church have been destroyed, even until nothing remains, 3 28, 29 and the church has become none. 3 30 The things of the church could not have been restored among them in any way. 3 31 Despair of those of whom the new church will consist. 11
