I The LORD Have Spoken…
There use to be a commercial on television of a financial firm called E. F. Hutton where in the midst of noisy crowds or other noises and such, a man would speak and all would get quiet. Then, a voice would say, "When E. F. Hutton speaks, people listen". I do not know if I …
A Gap to Stand In
Probably not the most profound title. Maybe not even a catchy one, but it is a title - "A Gap to Stand In". So let us stand in the gap. "Her priests have violated My law, and have profaned Mine holy things: they have put no difference between the holy and profane, neither have they …
Fire in the Forests
No! This is not dealing with the devastating, and catastrophic wildfires out West. This is not dealing with any fires of our day. The fire of the forests of our text have to do with God's judgment upon Judah; and I do believe this nation called the United States of America needs to wake up …
Why Will You Perish?
I hear people ask, "Why would a loving God send people to hell?" My answer has been, "He does not". Some who hear my answer and ask then, "Do you not preach that sinners go to hell?" or something along that order of thought. Of course I do believe in hell. I believe in hell …
I Will Remember MY Covenant
"Nevertheless I will remember My covenant with thee in the days of thy youth, and I will establish unto thee an everlasting covenant. Then thou shalt remember thy ways, and be ashamed, when thou shalt receive thy sisters, thine elder and thy younger: and I will give them unto thee for daughters, but not by …
Whitewashed Wall
There were a few times when I was a kid, that I got to use whitewash. Some may be asking, "What is whitewash?" I do not remember what the ingredients in it are, but I remember it was used by many people to put a cheap covering over a hard looking building, fence, or barn. …
Not Said in Vain
There are many phrases used throughout the prophecy of Ezekiel. "Son of man" how the LORD speaks to Ezekiel, an endearing term for him; another phrase used a little less often is "They, [we],or [you] shall know that I am the LORD". That is the one to which I write today. I have noted that …
Likeness of the Throne
"And above the firmament that was over their heads was the likeness of a throne, as the appearance of a sapphire stone: and upon the likeness of the throne was the likeness as the appearance of a Man above upon it. And I saw as the colour of amber, as the appearance of fire round …
Healing Waters
"And he said unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river. Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other. Then said he unto …
Exclusively for the Holy One
"Then He brought me back the way of the gate of the outward sanctuary which looketh toward the east; and it was shut. Then said the LORD unto me; This gate shall be shut, it shall not be opened, and no man shall enter in by it; because the LORD, the God of Israel, hath …
When GOD is Sanctified
"When I have brought them again from the people, and gathered them out of their enemies’ lands, and am sanctified in them in the sight of many nations; then shall they know that I am the LORD their God, which caused them to be led into captivity among the heathen: but I have gathered them …
For His Own Name’s Sake
"But I had pity for Mine holy name, which the house of Israel had profaned among the heathen, whither they went. Therefore say unto the house of Israel, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I do not this for your sakes, O house of Israel, but for Mine holy name’s sake, which ye have profaned among …

"Also, thou son of man, the children of thy people still are talking against thee by the walls and in the doors of the houses, and speak one to another, every one to his brother, saying, Come, I pray you, and hear what is the word that cometh forth from the LORD. And they come …
