Abstract
The paper aims to present some aspects from the distant era of the prophets of the Old Testament that are still relevant in our times. Reading through the books of the Bible that describe the lives and deeds of the prophets of the Old Testament, one can easily observe that they played a fundamental role in preserving monotheism and moral conduct of the chosen people, and this is the fundamental role that the Church must play in the contemporary society that is under such grinding pressure, especially in terms of morality.

The contemporary of their message transforms them in prophets of today and all days.
