This study on Biblical Chivalry was presented at the April 2010 BTBM Conference held in Phoenix, Arizona. Gene teaches how we need—in these dark and perilous days—to awaken from our spiritual slumber, to break free of the shackles of earthly pursuits and possessions, and answer the timeless call into the fellowship of knights-in-training!

Ezekiel #5
Ezekiel saw the throne of God mercy seat was under the shadow o f the cherubim wings. Ekeziel was sent to his people to warn of impending danger (Eze 3:17-19). “Stumbling block” is God’s turning over to failure based on what is in the person’s heart (Eze 3:20). Warning to a righteous man gets saved (Hab 2:4, Heb 10:38). God’s disciplinary process is first rebuke, chastening, scourging (Gal 6:2, Heb 11:5-8, 2Ti 3:16). The sin unto death is the next step (1Jo 5:16, 1Co 5:1-5). Israel had idols in their hearts and fell under severe judgment (Eze 14:1-23). JUMPS FORWARD TO Eze 4:12-17. Cycles of discipline are for a nation (Lev 26:18-35). (1) Ezekiel reaches hardened people (2) Ezekiel acts out the Word. (3) Ezekiel exemplifies what Peter had to do (1Pe 3:15). (4) Ezekiel was silent but acted per God’s commands (5) God wants us to be doers of the word (Jam 1:19-22) (6) what would be different if we were convicted that the word was true. (7) Ezekiel is a powerful challenge that God wants visual aids.
