People Won’t Believe It!
Always the true prophets and ministers of God have stood almost alone, and opposed by the overwhelming majority in Israel. That is Israel’s history of old. It is true today.
The 13th chapter shows the declarations of the popular ministry of this day in Israel — in America and Britain.
“Son of man, prophesy against the prophets of Israel… Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit and have seen nothing! O Israel thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts. Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the HOUSE OF ISRAEL to stand in the battle in the DAY OF THE LORD” (Verses 2-5). It is speaking of the soon-coming “Day of the Lord” — not some ancient event! … “They have seduced my people, saying Peace; and there was no peace” (Verse 10).
Certainly the popular ministry of today is saying to the people that we shall never be defeated in war, became, say those who understand our national identity, we are the chosen people of Israel! But we were not chosen for special favors. We were chosen for a service and righteous life we have failed to perform! Every time Israel of old disobeyed God, departed from His laws and ways, and went into the pagan customs (as we have done today, actually deceiving ourselves by calling those customs “Christian!”) they were invaded and conquered. Has God changed?”
