Jeremiah: Ministering Prophetically to our Contemporary World
Class and semester: Spring semester, 2023
Teacher: Dr. Kelvin Friebel, kmfriebel@gmail.com
Teacher responsible for grading: Mark Nelson, mark.nelson@emkts.ee
Goals of the course:
Central to the course will be the contemporary application based on the question: “How can we minister prophetically to our contemporary world, without being a prophet?”
How can we:
1) hold God’s people accountable for their sins?
2) confront political & religious leadership?
3) use persuasive techniques in presenting the messages?
4) deal with the difficulty of the ministry when no one listens?
5) present hope for the future after judgment?Content of the course:
In 586 B.C., the Southern Kingdom of Judah came to an end as Jerusalem was captured by the Babylonians. The city of Jerusalem and the Temple were destroyed, and the people forcibly taken into exile. It was in that context that Jeremiah proclaimed God’s prophetic messages of how God was working, and what God desired the people’s responses to be. Through a study of the Book of Jeremiah, we will focus on the messages of judgment and restoration, with respect to their theological contents and literary structures. We will also focus on how Jeremiah functioned in his prophetic ministry, including how he proclaimed the messages, and his struggle with being rejected as a prophet.
