What would it be like to have God asked you to eat something gross. What would you do? Would you object? You might know the "The Five Second Rule." If you drop something edible on the floor, but pick it up in less than five seconds, it's like it never happened. No germs or virus' transferred at all. Well, so says the "rule" but when put to the test, the dropped food still gets germs and such crawling all over it! Gross! Ezekiel was instructed to do something gross and he responded clearly to God. That concept echos later in the Book of Acts.
