The Relevance of Jeremiah’s Teaching on Evils, False Prophets, and Christians Today
- Christians should denounce hypocrisy in the society today.
- They should not result in witchcraft, divination, and sorcery.
- They should be upright, and worship God in sincerity.
- They are to proclaim divine judgment upon those who refuse to obey God’s will, just like Jeremiah declared God’s judgment upon Judah due to the sins of the people.
- Like Jeremiah, Christians should speak out against modern idols like the love of money, power, and obsession with sports, sex, and drugs among other evils.
- Christians should condemn the destruction of human life, violence; murder, abortion, parents killing their children, genocide, and exploitation of the poor.
- Christians should be aware of the existence of false teachings and prophecies.
- They should pray for God’s guidance and wisdom to be able to distinguish truth from false teaching.
- Christians have a responsibility to correct one another and call on sinners to repent.
- Christians are to be trustworthy, upright, and merciful to the poor and condemn dishonesty.
- They should practice justice in their relationship with others; preach against disobedience, and stubbornness, and pray to God to help them overcome these vices.
