“You must speak my words to them, …” We find those words in Ezekiel 2:7. But the people are in revolt, they are rebellious, they are obstinate and stubborn.

Some people are listening and some people are not listening.

A. SOME PEOPLE ARE LISTENING

a.  Nehemiah 8:3:

b. First Kings 4:34:

c.  John 10:27:

“My sheep listen to my voice.”

B. SOME PEOPLE FAIL TO LISTEN

a.  Second Kings 21:9:

b.  Isaiah 66:4:

c. Daniel 9:6:

Ezekiel 2:5 says, “And whether they listen or fail to listen – for they are a rebellious house  – they will know that a prophet has been among them.”
