The Rev. Adam DeGroot, pastor of Calvary Lutheran Church in Rio Rancho, NM, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Hosea 9.
Hosea prophesies a vivid picture of Israel's impending punishment for their unfaithfulness and idolatry, likening them to bad grapes unfit for consumption. He warns of the approaching judgment and their imminent fall, highlighting their religious infidelity and moral wrongdoing that thrive in their prosperous society.
The book of Hosea is a love story with a twist. It tells how God commanded Hosea, a prophet, to marry Gomer, a wife who would be unfaithful to him. God wanted Hosea to feel firsthand the pain of betrayal as he sent him out to prophesy to the people of Israel how they had been unfaithful to God. Hosea still loved Gomer and pursued her and restored her as his wife. This was a picture of how God pursued Israel despite their sin and rebellion and offered them grace and mercy if they would return to Him.
