Transcript of this segment

What happened? Well, and I'm going to do a video on this when I come back from Seattle. Well, God gave, God raised up Nebuchadnezzar, and Nebuchadnezzar boom got rid of the idol Egypt, boom got rid of the idol Assyria. So God got the idols out of the way so that he could take care of the idolaters at the time. In that case, it was Jehoiakim, Zedekiah, and all these evil kings that were rebelling against the Lord. They didn't listen to Jeremiah. And here we go. They put their faith in Egypt. They put their faith in Assyria. And God raised up Nebuchadnezzar, and he rocked Pharaoh Neco when he came up from Egypt. He knocked him back to Egypt. And then he was already beating Assyria. So Jeremiah 46 will tell you this. Jeremiah 46, Nebuchadnezzar is fighting Assyria and he's just taking it to him. And then Egypt comes up to help Assyria. Jeremiah 46, and Nebuchadnezzar beat both of them. Let me remind everybody, Egypt was the first superpower of the world. Assyria was the second superpower of the world. Babylon was the third. And he crushed both of them. He crushed both of them. Go read it. Jeremiah 25, Jeremiah 46. He crushed them.
