    Love For The Undeserving Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 4, 2023

     | 7,786 views

    Why on earth would God have Hosea marry a prostitute? Was it merely a parable or a dream we're being told about? Or was this a real life harlot who God used for a lesson for Israel?

    In 1990, there was a romantic comedy that hit big screen called “Pretty Woman”. It was marketed as a modern update of the story of Cinderella. Richard Gere played an unscrupulous businessman who was on a business trip and - on a lark - he picks up a hooker – played by Julia Roberts. As the ...read more

    Hosea knew pain and grief of his love trampled. Hosea poured out his love to his wife Gomer, only to have his trust betrayed. But that is what made Hosea such a unique and powerful prophet. The names of his three children are changed to a blessing in the Messianic hope.

    Late one evening I received a phone call from parents of a teenager. Andrew is gone they said, he has run away. When I arrived at their house they told me about Andrew’s sudden change in friends. There was recent change in his behavior and how they knew he ran away and they thought that he was in ...read more

    Sometimes, God has to act in very unusual ways to get our attention.

    Bridezilla Hosea 1:2-10 I am old enough to remember the old Godzilla movies about a reptilian who liked to destroy cities and such.

    To come back to the Lord and restore your relationship with Him, recognize God’s unfailing love for you, repent of your unfaithfulness to Him, and return to your faithful Lord.

    American philosopher and educator, Dr. Mortimer Adler, once suddenly left a discussion group quite disgusted. He slammed the door behind him. One person, trying to relieve the tension, remarked, “Well, he's gone.” The hostess replied, “No, he isn't. That's a closet!” (Myron S. ...read more

    Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 9 – Judah The Harlot Blinded By Sin Polluted The Land Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 29, 2024
     | 1,040 views

    I think the worse a man or woman is joined to sin, then the greater the blurriness of that person’s position becomes. Sin is the cancer that overtakes the ability to repent. Judah was so idolatrous; it craved after spiritual adultery with all the gods of the nations. Interesting Hosea.

    God loves us even though we mess around with other gods. It’s the message of love and forgiveness God taught Israel through the marriage of Hosea and Gomer.

    2The beginning of the word of the LORD by Hosea. And the LORD said to Hosea, Go, take unto thee a wife of whoredoms and children of whoredoms: for the land hath committed great whoredom, departing from the LORD. 3So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim.

    Lessons from the life of Hosea. God’s love is beyond reason, inescapable and tough.

    As I thought about the messed-up life of Hosea this week, I logged onto the Jerry Springer web site to check out the kind of topics he had been wallowing in lately. Some of the program titles read like this one on August 28: “Surprise, I’m Cheating.” The caption describes the show this way: ...read more
