Finding our way back

Ezekiel 18:30-32

1. How does Ezekiel exhort the people?

Ezekiel exhorts the people to repent, turn away from all offenses; then sin will not be their downfall.

Rid yourselves of all the offenses you have committed, and get a new heart and a new spirit. Why will you die, O house of Israel? For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign LORD. Repent and live!

Mark 1:14-20

2. How do the disciples demonstrate their dependence on Christ?

As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.

"Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."

At once they left their nets and followed him.

Such immediate response to the Lord's calling demonstrates their dependence on Christ.
