Therefore I said to you that you will die in your sins; for if you do not believe that I am He, you will die in your sins.”  Separation between God and his people  John 8:42,44 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God…You are of your father the devil, and the desires of your father you want to do…  James 4:4 Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God?  Unbelievers will perish 1 st Hour

 The punishment for idolaters and the disobedient  Prophecy - Deuteronomy 8:19-20 Then it shall be, if you by any means forget the LORD your God, and follow other gods, and serve them and worship them, I testify against you this day that you shall surely perish. As the nations which the LORD destroys before you, so you shall perish, because you would not be obedient to the voice of the LORD your God.  Those that forget God will perish  God will treat His people like the other heathen nations  God’s people oppose Him  Gospel - Matthew 23:37 “O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the one who kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to her! How often I wanted to gather your children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! 3 rd Hour

 Christ is the light  Gospel - John 8:12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”  Pharisees are darkness leading others to perdition  Matthew 15:14 Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.” 6 th Hour

 The people have become completely corrupted  Prophecy - Genesis 6:5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.  God’s people do not repent and will be destroyed  Prophecy - Genesis 6:7 So the LORD said, “I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them.” 9 th Hour

 God’s punishment against Assyria  Prophecy - Isaiah 30:27 Behold, the name of the LORD comes from afar, Burning with His anger, And His burden is heavy; His lips are full of indignation, And His tongue like a devouring fire.  Prophecy - Isaiah 30:28 His breath is like an overflowing stream, Which reaches up to the neck, To sift the nations with the sieve of futility; 11 th Hour

 God will sift the nations and find nothing (futility)  Luke 3:17 His winnowing fan is in His hand, and He will thoroughly clean out His threshing floor, and gather the wheat into His barn; but the chaff He will burn with unquenchable fire.”  Separate the good from the evil  Gospel - Matthew 25:31-33 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 11 th Hour

 Punishment for those that misuse God’s sacrament  Homily by St. John Chrysostom -“I want to remind you – with what I repeatedly reiterated to you concerning our communion with the Holy Sacraments, which is of Christ. I see you in a state of extreme looseness, permissiveness, and an alarming audacity and lamentable recklessness…Do these people really know for whom do they stand for. Or do these people realize the power of this sacrament…I dread the thought that God’s wrath may be inflicted upon you because of your disregard of this great sacrament. Do you really know who is He you want to partake of. This is the Holy Body of God the Word. And His blood that he offered for our salvation. Anyone who partakes in it undeservingly will suffer abominable punishment” 11 th Hour

 Hosea 4:1 Hear the word of the LORD, You children of Israel, For the LORD brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land: “There is no truth or mercy Or knowledge of God in the land.  No truth  Truth has been diluted and no longer has meaning  Varies from person to person, and religion to religion  No mercy  Quick to cast judgment  Pointing fingers and casting blame  No knowledge of God  Science has replaced God  God is whoever people want Him to be Hosea 4 – 1 st Hour of Tuesday

Sins of the People

 Hosea 4:3 Therefore the land will mourn; And everyone who dwells there will waste away With the beasts of the field And the birds of the air; Even the fish of the sea will be taken away.  The people will mourn  Sadness & despair  The people will waste away  Neglected & forgotten  Desolation & decline  Even natural resources diminish  Leviticus 26:32 I will bring the land to desolation, and your enemies who dwell in it shall be astonished at it. The Land Will Mourn

 Hosea 4:4 Now let no man contend, or rebuke another; For your people are like those who contend with the priest.  The people reject rebuke  No one is willing to bear rebuke  Each one will defend himself and not consider his sin  They reject instruction from the church  The people place blame on each other  Pointing fingers instead of admitting fault Reject Rebuke

 Hosea 4:5 Therefore you shall stumble in the day; The prophet also shall stumble with you in the night;  False prophets that lead the people astray  Blind leading the blind - Pharisees  Day and night are the same to the blind Stumble

 Hosea 4:6 My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.
