Welcome to the Word for today,

featuring the Bible Teaching of Pastor Chuck Smith,

founder of the Calvary Chapel Movement.

This radio program is a verse by verse study through the entire

Bible. And on today's edition of the Word for today, Patrick Chuck continues with the prophecy

of the scattering of Israel. As we pick up in Ezekiel chapter 24 verse 13 and now with today's message here's pastor chopper.

I will bring them out on the people. I will gather them from the countries. I will bring them into their own land and of course this is a prophecy concerning the nation Israel, but it does have also personal application as far as that relationship of God to his people,

The prophecy of the scattering of Israel.

The scattering of Israel was precipitated

which was the result of the conspiracy

of the spiritual leaders of that day.

Those spiritual leaders of that day. Those spiritual leaders had rejected Jesus as the Messiah.

And they said, what are we going to do?

If all of the people turn to him, then we're going to lose our jobs.
