In Ezekiel 24:15-17 God in my opinion almost randomly takes his wife away and says you can't mourn. Why? I know that God is sovergn and can do what he wants to do. But with that there must be a reason because God isn't random. It least I dont think he is. what are your thoughts. P.S. its ok to ask questions. its part of having a relationship. as long as your respectful.

in the new testiment we are told that christians do not mourn as the unbelievers do ie without hope
was that what God was getting at these are my first thoughts
and a worthy question I shall look into it
rest assured that god is not vindictive, capricioous or nasty i would assume that his wife was in heaven
god bless

24:017 Forbear to cry, make no mourning for the lifeless, bind the tire of thine head upon thee, and positioned on thy shoes upon thy feet, and canopy no longer thy lips, and consume no longer the bread of adult males. 24:018 So I spake unto the human beings interior the morning: and at even my spouse died; and that i did interior the morning as i became commanded. i've got not got self belief that God killed Ezekiel's spouse, i've got self belief that God allowed Ezekiel's spouse to die. The usa of Israel became appearing like an adulterous spouse, worshiping unusual Pagan Gods and ignoring God's regulation. The demise of Ezekiel's spouse foretold the "demise" of Israel, the "spouse" of God. interior the recent Covenant the Church, or assembly of Believers replaces Israel because of the fact the spouse of God. i do by no ability keep in mind analyzing something approximately Ezekiel's spouse being a virtuous woman. Do you have a verse i might desire to check?

God is sovereign, and great is the mystery of godliness. His ways are past finding out. He wants us to love Him with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind, and to be focused on Him, not on earthly circumstances, and relationships. All things work together for good to those who love God, those who are the called according to His purpose.
