“Son of man, He said, do you see what they are doing? Do you see the detestable sins the people of Israel are committing to drive Me from My Temple? But come, and you will see even more detestable sins than these! You say, ‘I am rich. I have everything I want. I don’t need a thing!’ And you don’t realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked. So I advise you to buy gold from Me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from Me so...

“The Spirit came into me as He spoke, and He set me on my feet. I listened carefully to His words. Son of man, listen to what I say to you. Do not join them in their rebellion. Open your mouth, and eat what I give you.” Then I looked and saw a hand reaching out to me. It held a scroll, which he unrolled.

Then Jesus shouted, “Father, I entrust My spirit into your hands!” And with those words He...
