Ezekiel: Life from the Dead

The LORD betrothed Israel to Himself, but they have committed harlotry and gone after other gods. Every blessing they have enjoyed will be stripped from them, Babylon will take them into exile, and God's presence will depart from the Temple. It seems Israel and their hope are as good as dead, but God promises resurrection from the dead. Application: Israel sinned because they were sinners and born dead in sin. The same is true of all men. There is only hope of resurrection and eternal life in Christ, because only Christ has kept God's law.
