[Jeremiah 25:31 tells us that God is going to judge the whole world because of the wicked things people have done.

It's a reminder that God is fair and just, and He will punish those who do wrong. At the same time, it's also a call to turn to Him and seek forgiveness, as we see in Acts 2:21 and 1 John 1:9.]
