| dc.description.abstract | The Old Testament prophets were preachers who had colour, courage and dynamic qualities but of them all, Jeremiah possessed the most universal appeal. He was a faithful, obedient and courageous preacher though he was severely persecuted, beaten, rejected and imprisoned. His life and ministry was a remarkable one and stand as a challenge to the contemporary Nigerian Christian preachers. This paper therefore examines and appraises the life and ministry of prophet Jeremiah by reflecting on some of his distinguished personal characteristics using historical-critical method. This is with a view of making him a model for the contemporary Nigerian Christian preachers. It is recommended that the contemporary Nigerian Christian preachers should reprimand superstitious religiosity, legalism, formalism and incorporation of worldliness into Christianity. | |
