Scripture Text (NRSV)

 

Ezekiel 33:7-11
 

33:7 So you, mortal, I have made a sentinel for the house of Israel; whenever you hear a word from my mouth, you shall give them warning from me.

33:8 If I say to the wicked, "O wicked ones, you shall surely die," and you do not speak to warn the wicked to turn from their ways, the wicked shall die in their iniquity, but their blood I will require at your hand.

33:9 But if you warn the wicked to turn from their ways, and they do not turn from their ways, the wicked shall die in their iniquity, but you will have saved your life.

33:10 Now you, mortal, say to the house of Israel, Thus you have said: "Our transgressions and our sins weigh upon us, and we waste away because of them; how then can we live?"

33:11 Say to them, As I live, says the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from their ways and live; turn back, turn back from your evil ways; for why will you die, O house of Israel?

Today's prophets may not always be found behind a pulpit preaching great homilies to the flock of the faithful come Sunday Morn, rather today God might be raising up mighty men of valor who after finding satanist over running and under running their community in a remote mining town in Tahoe. They finally realize the call of God to this backward people only after their lives have been threatened, beaten, homes invaded, and guns drawn. Their sacred desk is a computer that is also occupied with the eyes of those who are threatened and exposed by the words these oracles speak.

There sitting in the comfort of their home God uses these men to expose the deeds of the wicked in such a way that there can be no mistake as the words of truth go out and pierces their hearts with great signs and wonders.

God empowers these sentinels with strength and courage to proclaim the truth in the face of great opposition with the hope that one may seen and understand so that the impending doom can be averted and their souls saved from utter distruction. As the words of life or death go out, those who proclaim it clean their hands before the Lord. On the other hand, those who hear the message can trust that God is gracious and will pardon, heal and restore.

However, to reject His loving offer to forgive and refuse to take responsibility in no wise frees them from the consequenses of their sins.

By this one can be very sure that God will not be mocked!!! What you sow is what you reap, If you sow to the wind you will reap the whirl wind.

Maybe the Lord would speak this word to those folks up in the high places,

As Surely as the Lord Lives...

So long ago you knew the truth but now you have exchanged it for the Lie, you are such a fool! What has your life become? One big farce, a charade, a travesty, you lie to the world about who you are because of you own shame and bondage; you hold captive those you can use in your sick lust for power and the pursuit of wealth in your pathetic private hell. You think that I am unable to see or stop you and that maybe in the next life or after life you will realize the error of your ways. Which one is it? Now or then? Don’t you know? Can you see? You who are so wise and brilliant, please tell Me? No, you don’t know and you can’t see because you have been deceived!

However, the truth before your eyes is ever clear! Therein lies the real truth, their cries speak what is Absolutely true! I have placed a strong witness before you that you may know for sure, without a doubt! They are your personal conformations to your own condemnation.

Just like the birds you hear singing songs in the light of day, these singers are sent into the darkness of your night, singing songs of deliverance and of your condemnation.

Yet still, in spite of this, even now I offer peace to you! REPENT of your sins and turn to Me! Let loose of the idols and repent of the sorcery and witchcraft. Set free those you imprison and destroy the instruments of your abominations. Give all you own to the poor, widow, sick, elderly, and homeless! I will show you how and to whom. Then and only then will I know that you are truly sorry for your sins. Then and only then will I be able to heal and restore you. Too much to ask? Tell Me then how much is your freedom worth? Can you put a price tag on peace? What is the value of ones soul? Crunch those numbers if you can.

How I pray that you would consider these things and turn from this Hell bent path to destruction you are on. You must be the one to choose your destiny. There is time to change the path your on, but you must not hesitate! If you delay you will be victimized by your own devices and suffer the wrath of the Almighty One! Hear the Word of the Lord.
