Sermon Notes

Hosea 4-5 – God Indicts Israel. Hosea, a prophet of God, has married a prostitute! Hosea’s marriage is a real-life picture of our Holy God’s relationship with unfaithful Israel who repeatedly cheats on God. Like Hosea taking back his wife Gomer, God sent His Son, Jesus, to pay the penalty for our sins and purchase us from death and destruction.  In addition to Jesus’ redeeming sacrifice, God wants to address our wandering and unfaithful heart. What makes our soul sick and why does God hold us accountable for our sin? God’s love says and does hard things to build and restore you! Don’t miss Pastor JC’s powerful sermon, Hosea 4-5 – God’s Indicts Israel!
