Why does Zionsville BFC preach the Bible one verse at a time? Simply because every word that is in the Word of God is inspired. In Ezekiel's life, it is seen that he was given the words of Yahweh. These words were for the children of Israel whether they listened to them or not. Many parallels can be drawn from the text that apply to the audience that believers share the gospel with and preach to today. Although not everything in Ezekiel 2 is a direct parallel (for it was written to Israel and not the USA) there is a great deal of application in it for our day. Ezekiel is commanded by Yahweh God to tell Israel, "Thus says Yahweh." Today, all we believers have to offer is the Word of God, for it is by the Word that a man's heart is made brand new.
