Ez.12:16; 23-28 "The long and short of prophesy" (2 of 2)
Of this we shall see in this nugget of God's providence,"And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us./And Jesus said unto him, Forbidhimnot: for he that is not against us is for us(Lk.9:49-50)". Partisan spirit of John had to go a long way before he would come to be known the Apostle of Love. So learning as he went in the company of Jesus is what Christian Living in its kern teaches us. We are not dying to sin in water baptism so we may spend the rest of our lives like Israelites hungering for the fleshpots of Egypt. It is what prosperity theology of false teachers work with.
Ezekiel's words "vain vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel' are for our times as well. Similarly it shall be spoken of the churches in future before out Lord shall make an end of blasphemy from the church."25For I am theLord: I will speak, and the word that I shall speak shall come to pass; it shall be no more prolonged: for in your days, O rebellious house, will I say the word, and will perform it, saith the LordGod(v.26). When these false diviners are in charge we are to be like Ezekiel.
"Son of man, eat thy bread with quaking, and drink thy water with trembling and with carefulness;(v.18) .
