1. Ezekiel’s Vision (1:1-28)
Matthew – lion
Mark - ox.
Luke – man.
John - eagle.

2. Ezekiel’s Response (1:28)

3. Ezekiel’s CALL (1:28-2:8)
A.STAND Up (Ezek. 2:1).
B.LISTEN Up (Ezek. 2:2).
C.GO up (Ezek. 2:3).
D.SPEAK up (Ezek. 2:4-6).
God’s TRUTH is not dependent on HUMAN response.
E.OPEN Up (Ezek. 2:8, 3:2).
Ezekiel means “God is STRONG” or “God MAKES strong.”
Actually, most biblical prophets were not foretellers, they were “forth tellers.”

4. OUR Response
A calling is not something reserved for those going into full-time Christian service.
Sometimes the end of a career is the beginning of a CALLING.
