Kevin Bentley teaches from Jeremiah 18. He begins with an illustration of a potter shaping clay, similar to how the Lord molds Israel, His clay. Just as clay can be uncooperative, so can humanity resist God. While the interpretation of this passage pertains to the nation, its application is personal and relevant to believers today.
