Hosea Hosea – lessons from a dysfunctional family!

Hosea Introduction: The first of the 12 Minor Prophets Based in Israel in 8 th century BC. Time of moral and spiritual decline. Concerned with the decline in spiritual values – the ‘pollution’ of faith. A prophet of doom par excellence? “the dark gloom of judgement is frequently brightened by an insight of irrepressible love” Peter Craigie

Hosea Two Dominant Themes - Two faces of the same coin - God’s Judgement and Love

Hosea The Family Man ! Wife: Gomer. not a virgin, involved with the temple cults1:1-3 Children: Jezreel place of bloodshed (Omri) 1:4-5 Lo – Ruhamah not pitied 1:6-7 Lo – Amminot my people1:8-9 Yet still Hope for the future! – 1:10-2:1

Hosea Divorce:Due to Gomer’s unfaithfulness 2:2-15 Reconciliation:Peace Restored 2:16-23 Remarriage:Hosea an older man, divorced with grown up children remarries Gomer

Hosea Comes across as a man with remarkable perception and sensitivity! Hosea and his dysfunctional family set before Israel as a living and permanent message of Judgement and love – a living sermon! God spoke through him not just his words! Despite “ I will love them no more “ 9:16 Love Wins! 11:1-11 God still loves!

Hosea ‘ What does this book from the Bible mean for us today? Two sides of a coin - Love and Judgement Decline in spiritual values – the ‘ pollution ’ of faith Yet still Hope for the future! Being Living sermons ! Love always wins?
