EZEKIEL 24
6 ¶ Wherefore thus sayth the Lord God, Woe to the bloodie citie, to the pot whose scumme is therein, and whose scumme is not gone out of it; bring it out piece by piece, let no lot fall vpon it.
7 For her blood is in the middest of her: she set it vpon the toppe of a rocke, she powred it vpon the ground to couer it with dust:
8 That it might cause furie to come vp to take vengeance: I haue set her blood vpon the top of a rocke, that it should not be couered.
9 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; Woe to the bloody citie, I will euen make the pile for fire, great.
10 Heape on wood, kindle the fire, consume the flesh, and spice it well, and let the bones be burnt.
11 Then set it empty vpon the coales thereof, that the brasse of it may be hot and may burne, and that the filthinesse of it may be molten in it, that the scum of it may be consumed.
12 She hath wearied herselfe with lies, and her great scumme went not forth out of her: her scumme shall be in the fire.
13 In thy filthinesse is lewdnesse, because I haue purged thee, and thou wast not purged, thou shalt not be purged from thy filthinesse any more, till I haue caused my fury to rest vpon thee.

He's been working on me for some time now, there were probably quite a few details that needed attention but I look forward to Glory, and hope He finishes with me soon..
Thank you for your encouragement, Mr Niles.
