I desire faithful love and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God instead of entirely burned offerings.
Hosea 6:6 (ceb)
Hosea 13:14 is quoted in 1 Corinthians 15. There part of the passage is explained and fulfilled: yes, death and the grace have some success, but the ultimate victory is ours through Jesus!
The kingdom of Israel didn’t know that ultimate fulfillment, but they did know that God was their Savior in Egypt, and that should have guided their heart and actions.
Yet, they didn’t, and they paid a heavy price.
Victory over death and the grave – and everything else – has been given to us through Jesus! Let us live in that joyful, glorious, and everlasting reality!
“Thank You, Lord, for that victory in Jesus!”
SCRIPTURES

Hosea 6:6 (ceb)
Chapter 11 is the most tender one in the book. It shows a loving Father whose heart breaks at the rebellion of His beloved Israel and what is in store. It shows that He loves and will restore His people in the end.
We see this restoration not just in the return of the remnant later, but ultimately in Jesus, who restores with right relationships and for all time!
“Heavenly Father, create in us new hearts, like Yours, and remind us of the joy of our salvation in Jesus, where the results of our prodigal hearts are forever reversed.”
SCRIPTURES
- Hosea 11
- Luke 15:11-32
We will not have class this Sunday, July 16, 2023, as Pastor Scott is out of town.
We will reconvene the following Sunday, May 23.
Blessings!

Hosea 6:6 (ceb)
There is something to be said for the strength that comes from a persecuted Church. In times of distress, it’s much easier to call upon the name of the Lord. Conversely, when times are prosperous and good, we often forget God. We forget His goodness; His grace; His blessings. We can easily fall into complacency and loose sight of Him.
This happened during some of the prosperous times in Israel and, in it, they forgot God (just as He warned).
“Lord, in good times and bad, may we always Call upon and depend upon You!”
SCRIPTURES
- Hosea 10
- Deuteronomy 8:11-20

The process is simple:

That’s it!
Thank you for being a positive influence and help for those who need it!

Hosea 6:6 (ceb)
It seems too harsh for us to consider God punishing the ones He loves. But most of the time, this punishment is simply the natural consequences of our stubborn idolatries, allegiances, desires, and addictions. They are the result of God “giving us over” to what we say we want.
You want to serve other gods? Go, be in their care!
You want to lust after others? Deal with the failed relationships and diseases that follow.
Should we choose our way rather than God’s, He won’t stop us; and woe to us if that happens!
“Lord, forgive us when we demand our own way and bring us back to Yours – always!”
SCRIPTURES
- Hosea 8 — 9
- Deuteronomy 30:14-20
