1 | What is the significance of the wheels? | Ezek 10:9 | echo | 66897 | ||
Hello Ray, Thank you for your speedy reply. I am still rather confused as to what exact five words of power you and 1 Corinthians 14:19 were referring to. In studying the Ezekiel passages I was only able to come up with four words those being: to go, to rise, to stand still, and to BE in the Spirit. However when looking at 1 Corinthians I was only able to find of those four to be in the Spirit, to rise and to go. My question for you now is am I on the right track or am I looking at different things than you intended? Was your point that we should act towards Jesus Christ as the wheels did to the being? That we were risen from the dead through His resurrection, that we need to go where He goes, and we need to stand still or be still when He is still? Just some thoughts that were running through my head, if I am completely off base and you were intending to mean a completely different thing than let me know. I will continue to study this passage as I continue to be confounded by it. I pray that God grants me the wisdom to discern what His intention was behind this part of His word. In Him, Echo 2 Timothy 2:15 |

2 | What is the significance of the wheels? | Ezek 10:9 | Ray | 66945 | ||
Hi Echo, I am impressed with your desire to know and your work ethic in digging for answers. I am sorry that I was so vague in what I was suggesting to you, and sorry that no one else could help you in your study. I would not say that you are off base in the thoughts that you came up with but they are not what I intended to lead you to. The only thing that I was meaning to point out to you is that the word "spirit" (which to me is a word of spiritual power), is mentioned five times in this section of Scripture. Ezekiel 1:12, 20, (three times), and 21 in the NKJ. In 1 Corinthians 4:21 there is one "spirit". The other four are found in 5:3,4,5, and 6:17. Somewhere in the archives is a discussion about why I thought that the number five was chosen by Paul in 1 Corinthians 14:19, and I used these verses in my theory. If this makes sense to you, and you want to read the discussion, perhaps it is at 1 Corinthians 14:19. Or type in "Ray five words" or Ray Ezekiel in the Search at the top right. The five words of "spirit" concerning 1 Corinthians 14:19 are found in 14:2, 14, 15, 15, and 16. I know that the studying you did was not for nothing; however I am sorry that I did not make myself more clear in trying to help you. From the heart, Ray |
