Israel was deplorable. They forsaken God and turned to idols. We used to call it backsliding. Jeremiah 2:20-27 gives us attitudes that cause us to backslide.
1) The Attitude of Ingratitude (Jer. 2:20). Ingratitude is the cornerstone of unfaithfulness.
2) The Attitude of Hopelessness (Jer. 2:25). The difference between Hope and Hopelessness is God.
3) The Attitude of Freedom (Jer. 2:31). cf. Gal. 5:13.
4) The Attitude of Denial (Jer. 2:35). "That's not me."
The answer is Jer. 3:13-14, 1 John 1:9.
