The Failed Test: Reprobate Silver

Jeremiah 6:27-30

“I have made you a tester of metals and a fortress among my people; that you may know and try their way.

They are all grievous rebels, going about with slanders; they are brass and iron: they all of them deal corruptly.

The bellows blow fiercely; the lead is consumed of the fire: in vain do they go on refining; for the wicked are not plucked away.

Men will call them rejected silver, because the LORD has rejected them.”
