Jeremiah / Question
Question source
Jeremiah
God tells Jeremiah, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you," and that he was appointed as a prophet before birth (Jeremiah 1:5). The verse presents Jeremiah’s calling as God-initiated and set apart in advance.
5Before I formed you in the belly I knew you, and before you came forth out of the womb I sanctified you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations.
