However, if they only read this one verse, it will tell them a great deal about the God of the Bible. This one scripture is considered ...read more

    The Compassion Of God Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 21, 2022
     | 3,274 views

    The message of Hosea 11 is for you and me, not only wayward Israel. The family life of Hosea and his wife Gomers serve as is an illustration of how our sin breaks the heart of God. Now the focus is on God’s compassion and redemption.

    There is a difference between compassion and concern. If a man falls off an ocean liner, we will show concern by yelling man overboard and look for help. Compassion would be at the risk of our own life; we jump in and rescue the drowning man. Compassion is much deeper than concern. In Hosea 11 we ...read more
