Through my Bible Yr 2 - May 22
Ezekiel 8 (New International Version)Ezekiel 8Idolatry in the Temple 1 In the sixth year, in the sixth month on the fifth day, while I was sitting in my house and the elders of Judah were sitting before me, the hand of the Sovereign LORD came upon me there. 2 I looked, and I saw a figure like that of a man. [a] From what appeared to be his waist down he was like fire, and from there up his appearance was as bright as glowing metal. 3 He stretched out what looked like a hand and took me by the hair of my head. The Spirit lifted me up between earth and heaven and in visions of God he took me to Jerusalem, to the entrance to the north gate of the inner court, where the idol that provokes to jealousy stood. 4And there before me was the glory of the God of Israel, as in the vision I had seen in the plain. 5Then he said to me, "Son of man, look toward the north." So I looked, and in the entrance north of the gate of the altar I saw this idol of jealousy. 6And he said to me, "Son of man, do you see what they are doing—the utterly detestable things the house of Israel is doing here, things that will drive me far from my sanctuary? But you will see things that are even more detestable." 7 Then he brought me to the entrance to the court. I looked, and I saw a hole in the wall. 8He said to me, "Son of man, now dig into the wall." So I dug into the wall and saw a doorway there. 9 And he said to me, "Go in and see the wicked and detestable things they are doing here." 10 So I went in and looked, and I saw portrayed all over the walls all kinds of crawling things and detestable animals and all the idols of the house of Israel. 11In front of them stood seventy elders of the house of Israel, and Jaazaniah son of Shaphan was standing among them. Each had a censer in his hand, and a fragrant cloud of incense was rising. 12 He said to me, "Son of man, have you seen what the elders of the house of Israel are doing in the darkness, each at the shrine of his own idol? They say, 'The LORD does not see us; the LORD has forsaken the land.' " 13Again, he said, "You will see them doing things that are even more detestable." 14 Then he brought me to the entrance to the north gate of the house of the LORD, and I saw women sitting there, mourning for Tammuz. 15He said to me, "Do you see this, son of man? You will see things that are even more detestable than this." 16He then brought me into the inner court of the house of the LORD, and there at the entrance to the temple, between the portico and the altar, were about twenty-five men. With their backs toward the temple of the LORD and their faces toward the east, they were bowing down to the sun in the east. 17 He said to me, "Have you seen this, son of man? Is it a trivial matter for the house of Judah to do the detestable things they are doing here? Must they also fill the land with violence and continually provoke me to anger? Look at them putting the branch to their nose! 18 Therefore I will deal with them in anger; I will not look on them with pity or spare them. Although they shout in my ears, I will not listen to them."Footnotes:Ezekiel 8:2 Or saw a fiery figure Scripture taken from the HOLY BIBLE, NEW INTERNATIONAL VERSION®. NIV®.

Questions & Answers
-
The state of Israel
Some groups of Christians believe they are required to support the state of Israel as an article of faith because of Genesis 12:3. Some believe the state of Israel is required for the second coming of Christ. What does the Bible teach on the matter? Answer: The Bible makes no mention of and has no references to the modern nation of Israel. Those who burden consciences about such things that you mention are speaking Dispensational assumptions based on misunderstanding of various Bible statements (Dispensationalism is Dispensational Premillennialism). I would encourage a more thorough examination of biblical End Time theology through a book your pastor can point you to. There are also books that identify dispensational errors and explain how people fell into those errors.

Dreams
Is it a sin if you sin while dreaming? Answer: To give a definitive answer to your question that covers every case, we would have to know exactly what is happening when a person dreams, and we don't. There are several accounts in Scripture in which a dreamer receives a special revelation from God. But Scripture is silent on why human beings commonly dream when we sleep. Science also has yet to find a satisfactory explanation.Some take the position that we can't really sin in our dreams, because to be a "sin" an action must involve a conscious choice. That isn't Scriptural, however. We often sin without choosing to (Romans 7:15) or even being aware of it (Psalm 19:12).The Lutheran Confessions mention sins committed in sleep (Smalcald Articles III, 3:28) as results of the hereditary sinful nature within each one of us. The point being made in the context is exactly the important one.To receive God's full, free forgiveness, it is not necessary that we name all our sins or even that we understand them. God's forgiveness for all our sins is a free gift, received through faith in Jesus Christ.
