A Whore and Her Children

by

Hosea 1

Teaching

  • Who was Hosea?
  • When and where did he prophesy
  • Who was his wife?
  • Who were his children?

Reproof

  • A light and trivial understanding of sin
  • Taking God's mercy for granted
  • Whose child are you?
  • Our individualistic introversion
  • Belittling of generational sin

Correction

  • The prophets speak of Christ (Lk 24:44)
  • Hosea spoke of Christ (Rom 9:25-26)
  • In Christ we are God's people (1 Pet 2:10)
  • In Christ we are God's children (Rom 8:16-17)
  • God sent his Son to take adulterers as his bride (Eph 5:25-27)

Training in Righteousness

  • Resolve to respond like the sinful woman of Lk 7:38
