Some people have never listened to God. That is fact. Some people will always chose to live their lives how they see fit over listening and obeying God. There is nothing you can do to change that. You can tell those around you the truth: God wants them to turn from sin and be embraced in His loving arms. You just can't force them to listen or believe. You can't force people, but you can pray for them. Jeremiah preached to his people for 23 years and they did not listen to him, but he did not walk away. He was faithful.
When you reach out to other people don't be lead astray. Don't turn to other gods. If you do then all is lost because evil is repaid with evil. Everyone in every nation has been warned: a life without God is eternal death.
Sin brings judgement: captivity, disaster, isolation, death. The consequences of ignoring sin destroys all joy and laughter. It spreads among a nation to other nations until death covers the world. Death is the oppressor. It is set free through God's anger.
God wrath begins in Jerusalem and will spread across the world in holy judgment. You see it in the wars, the constant battles. Life goes from being smooth or pleasurable to death and destruction. The storms that God send will make the world succumb.
Jeremiah 25
