How did God convince Jeremiah of his divine call?
The correct answer is D. He touched his mouth
The account of Jeremiahâs confrontation by God in the deepest zone of his being is given in the form of a dialogue. He did not receive his call to the prophetic ministry in the midst of a temple filled with brilliant light or surrounded by strange heavenly creatures. âThe revelation came to him not from cloven skies, or out of the midst of the thunders of the heavens.â[39] Instead of the spectacular, Jeremiah describes the objects or events of common daily experience as the starting point for his perception of the divine truth.
If Jeremiahâs experience took the form of a vision, it was a âcalm meditative visionâ that was not accompanied by any spectacular phenomena. It was an experience with God on lifeâs way. God chose him, met him, spoke to him, touched his lips, and commissioned him as a prophet. see ''jeremiah 1 to the end''
