Ezekiel 2:10

and He spread it before me, unrolling the parchment strip before his astonished eyes; and it was written within and without, on both sides of the parchment, indicating also a writing of great size; and there was written therein lamentations and mourning and woe, this being the message which the prophet was to set forth, as included in this his book of prophecy. It is doubly hard for a believer to maintain his faith if in the very church-body of which he is a member things occur which have a tendency to offend him deeply; but it is in just such circumstances that faith will be tested.
