    Ez.20:27-29 "All flesh shall see it" (1 of 2)

    "....O house of Israel? As I live, saith the LordGod, I will not be enquired of by you./"And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all, that ye say, We will be as the heathen, as the families of the countries, to serve wood and stone".

    "And that which cometh into your mind shall not be at all,"Here we have from the Spirit and it is for our instruction. When the Lord God set Prophet Ezekiel as the watchman for the nation of Israel it has its specific purpose. Therein also are God-inspired lessons for all ages and man. The lesson could be set in few words. Man proposes God disposes. Why history of man always go awry? It shall never be according to how he plans, whether in his own mind or as part of a group as was the case in the Versailles,1919 but it does not work. Pure and simple. A chicken in every pot' President Hoover promised in 1928.

    Wall Street crash of 29 was the unkindest cut. Who is to blame. The nation let loose their commitment to God. Two examples of 21 Tulsa race massacre and close in heels against Osage nation all but forgotten from news media but God sees it all. Multiply such hatred among citizenry upset all calculations of a decent and able man. Hoover was defeated by forces he could not name. Similarly Israel would be defeated by an unseen enemy of their own making.

    It is not laws of nation that is under discussion but the law of the Spirit by which God fashioned all hearts alike(Ps.33:15)" When we speak of vision we need look for the saying of Jesus,"But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how greatisthat darkness!(Matt.6:23)" If thine eye be evil' is conditional and because of which have we not seen law is made a mockery? Benefit of doubt is a state as much as finding a legal loophole. Man escapes but how long?
