06-Aug-2025
All our problems and troubles can be summarized in one word: selfishness. There are some religions and philosophies that promote selfishness. Man’s desire to avoid suffering and pain is centered around our pursuit to experience selfish pleasure. In a selfish world, pleasure is a virtue. And where pleasure is virtuous, sin is bountiful. God ordained the destruction and captivity of Judah because of their self-seeking desire for pleasure over prophecy. Ezekiel, with the rest of Israel, lived in exile under the shadow of the ancient city of Babylon. Ezekiel lived by the River Chebar, when he heard from the Spirit of God: God’s people were to go through more suffering. God disciplines those He loves, and His discipline counteracts our sinful and selfishness desires.
