In chapters 4-24, we see that God is present to judge his people. Ezekiel fulfills his function of bringing God's reasons for judgment to the people. In Ezekiel we see that God has definitively solved the problem of sin among his covenant people and God still holds his people accountable when then they do not assume a biblical identity.
