A question for discussion;
Are we to take the image and words of Esekiel 1:10-14 lierally or figuratively. If literally then does that mean that the Spirit being referred to in verse 12 is the Holy Spirit? If it is, then does that mean that all believers have a creature accompanying them since we are filled with the Holy Spirit?
Ezekiel 1:10-14
10 The form of [each of] their faces was that of a man, and each of the four had the face of a lion on the right, the face of an ox on the left, and the face of an eagle. 11 [That is what] their faces [were like]. Their wings were spread upward; each had two [wings] touching that of another and two wings covering its body. 12 Each creature went straight ahead. Wherever the Spirit wanted to go, they went without turning as they moved.
13 The form of the living creatures was like the appearance of burning coals of fire and torches. Fire was moving back and forth between the living creatures; it was bright, with lightning coming out of it. 14 The creatures were darting back and forth like flashes of lightning.
Sounds pretty awesome to me.
