Ezekiel 14
Idolatry is a gross sin before the Lord.
If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me. Tainted love of the Lord, ex. withholding a portion of idolatry will distort the whole relationship. Repent. Turn to Christ and live!
The false prophet and those that stay under him when they know the Truth will be punished. We must all give account for our own selves. No hanging on our relatives shirttails. God is righteous in all of His judgments!
Luke 8
Pray to endure. Don't be earthly minded. Have patience in the learning and growing process. Obedience is required. Be a testimony. Give God the glory! Fear not. Believe only. God honors faith.
