Topics: Hard Heart
Dramatic monologue as if Hosea were speaking; his mixed feelings of anger and compassion toward Gomer become the clue for understanding God’s feelings about Israel.
It had been a hard day in the fields. The sun had beat down without mercy on my back. Twice or three times, my team of oxen had stumbled and I had had to stop and help them up out of the miry clay, lest they break their legs and be useless. I’ve always found that it’s not hard to stop and care for ...read more
Many people who sit in the pews have "no knowledge of God," as Hosea says. Knowing God is possible; it is about living; and knowing God brings hope.

At the last house, an apartment, we could see a man through the open door sucking the last drops of liquor ...read more

Matthew’s quotation of Hosea is extremely helpful for interpreting Biblical prophecy. God’s promises to the nation of Israel have found their fulfillment in the person of Jesus Christ.
- The first time I read our text for today several years ago, “Out of Egypt I called my son” I thought no big deal. That makes sense, Jesus is God’s son. It makes perfect sense. - Then I started to think about it some more – it says that this happened to fulfill what the Lord had said through the ...read more
