The visions of Ezekiel, a type of God's elect in this final generation, describing conditions in the temple/church: Ezekiel 33:7 So thou, O son of man, I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at my mouth, and warn them from me.
Many Christian's hardly ever read the books of the Old Testament except for what they call "Bible Stories", like the Holy Spirit is some kind of a fiction writer.
They look upon the Old Testament books, like Ezekiel, as being sort of ancient history, old irrelevant writings of prophets who lived a long, long time ago and who have long since been dead! What possibly could they have to say about the 21st century and our modern times? And yet they know not that the book of Ezekiel contains more prophecy in the last nine chapters about the future time of the Millennium than any other book of the Bible including the Book of Revelation, for the entire plan of God is written in the Old Testament including both the first AND the second advents of Jesus Christ. It is all the Word of God.
Always remember 1 Cor. 10:11. The physical types set forth in the Old Testament happened to give us a clear PICTURE of what we can expect to befall us spiritually in the last days. Jesus even said in Matthew 24 that just as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be before He returns.
Are we going to have another Flood of Water?
NO!
That was a type!
The fallen angels are coming again and we are going to have a FLOOD of LIES (Rev. 12:15) that will deceive the whole world and sweep away the ungodly, to their spiritual death!
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
