We understand from Ezekiel here how God deals with Israel under the law. A dispensation apart from any other. Like the dispensation Jesus spoke of when He told the disciples how much things would change when they would be led by the Spirit. Instead of by the law that had…
Iniquity. What is it when Jesus uses it in Mt.7:21-23 saying “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
