Reconciliation

Four Aspects of God’s Reconciliation

With the creation of man, Adam initially had fellowship with God; they (Adam and Eve) heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day…” (Genesis 3:8a) But after Adam’s sin in rebellion against God’s words… he was driven from the garden and the whole creation was cursed, man, beast, and the fruit of the earth.

"…I have set thee a watchman unto the house of Israel; therefore thou shalt hear the word at My mouth, and warn them from Me" (Ezek.33:7).

God's Prophet Ezekiel was appointed as a "watchman" over the house of Israel. He was held responsible to sound the alarm and warn the wicked of Israel from their way.

In his farewell address to the nation Israel, Moses said:

Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?” (Deut. 4:32-33).
