Ezekiel 7:14-21
Outside is the sword, inside are plague and famine. All who survive and escape will be in the mountains.
Their silver and gold will not be able to save them in the day of the Lord's wrath.
They were proud of their beautiful jewelery and used it to make their detestable idols and vile images.
I will deal with them according to their conduct, and by their own standards I will judge them. Then they will know that I am the Lord.
The people's flagrant idolatry is about to bring destruction upon them - judgment from which there is no escape.
Then they will know that the Lord is God indeed. Terrible, total calamity is befalling the land.
Why?
Shaven head were a sign of disgrace as well as of mourning.
No one can escape inside the city or in the country.
Silver and gold are not able to save their life in the day of calamity. Which were proud of people. Same as in this generation, gold is precious to population.
Eternal life is more important than the gold and silver in our life.
We have out own standard to judge what we are seeing, the final judgement of the Lord will come. Our standards always are not right. Don't be a stupid person, fear the Lord is wisdom.
How?
What is my standards in my heart? the word of God is my standard. Check my standards everyday! Did I compromise it or forget it?
