What does God require of us?
From Ezekiel 34 — a good lesson on what we should be doing as priests of the Lord Most High:
Thus says the Lord God:
“Ah, shepherds of Israel who have been feeding yourselves! Should not shepherds feed the sheep? You eat the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, you slaughter the fat ones, but you do not feed the sheep. The weak you have not strengthened, the sick you have not healed, the injured you have not bound up, the strayed you have not brought back, the lost you have not sought, and with force and harshness you have ruled them.”
May we be faithful to do all that God desires of us. Amen.
Who is Sodom?
Ezekiel 16.49:
Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy.
Pride, excess, prosperity, but no charity.
How many of us does that describe?
