Who is Prophet Jeremiah?

Jeremiah (the prophet)

JEREMIAH (the prophet) jĕr’ ə mī ə (יִרְמְיָ֖הוּ, LXX ̓Ιερεμίας, G2635, Jeremias, meaning Yahweh establishes). Jeremiah was a prophet in the southern kingdom (Judah) during the last forty years of its existence (627-586 b.c.). He lived through the period of the disintegration of the kingdom, witnessed the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple, and spent the remaining years of his life in Egypt.

Jeremiah was the son of Hilkiah, a kohen (Jewish priest) from the Benjamite village of Anathoth. The difficulties he encountered, as described in the books of Jeremiah and Lamentations, have prompted scholars to refer to him as "the weeping prophet".

The relevance of Jeremiah's teachings on evil and false prophesy to christians

The Relevance of Jeremiah’s teaching on Evils, False Prophets and Christians Today is as follows:

Christians should denounce hypocrisy in the society today.
They should not result to 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 love of money, power, obsession with sports, sex, and drugs among other evils.
Christians should condemn destruction of human life, violence; murder, abortion, parents killing their own 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, stubbornness and pray to God to help them overcome these vices.
