Florida Man Burns Prophet’s Words #BibleFail

In a bizarre incident, a Florida man was seen burning the words of a prophet on his property. Witnesses reported that the man, identified as Jehoiakim, had gathered a crowd around him before setting fire to a scroll containing the words of the prophet Jeremiah.

As the flames rose higher, Jehoiakim could be heard shouting that he was not afraid of any "so-called prophet" and that he would not be dictated to by anyone. He even dared the prophet to come and face him if he had the courage.

When questioned by reporters about his actions, Jehoiakim claimed that the words of the prophet were ‘fake news’ and that he was merely exercising his right to free speech. He also stated that he did not believe in the prophet’s message and that he had burnt the scroll as a symbol of his rejection of it.

The incident has caused outrage among religious leaders, who have condemned Jehoiakim’s actions. Many have pointed out that burning the words of a prophet is not only disrespectful but also a sign of ignorance and arrogance.

Despite the backlash, Jehoiakim has refused to apologize, stating that he has every right to express his opinion and that he has no regrets about what he did.

Conclusion

The story of Jehoiakim burning Jeremiah’s scroll can be found in the Bible in Jeremiah 36. This story serves as a reminder that we should always be respectful towards the words of the prophets and listen to their messages, even if we do not agree with them. As it says in Proverbs 1:7, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction." So let us not be like Jehoiakim, but instead, let us seek wisdom and understanding from the words of the prophets.
