Has Jesus entrusted Himself to you? John 2:23-25

Though Jesus’ many mighty works and signs confirm His identity and authority, He has chosen to reveal Himself to mankind through His Word. Thus, those seeking only signs and wonders and spectacular works are likely never to know Him. But to the ones who sit humbly at His feet, hearing, reading, and studying His Word, Jesus reveals Himself as their merciful and loving Savior!

Hosea 7-8 Bible Study

Hosea testified to the northern kingdom of Israel of its sins and the coming judgment of God. Though the LORD God desired the people's repentance, they continued in their idolatry and rebellion against God and His law -- much the same as is happening in our own nation today. God's judgment is coming!

How can we sinners be counted righteous in God's sight? Romans 3:19-31

Hosea 5 and 6 Bible Study

Hosea tells of God's attempts to chastise and wake up the northern kingdom of Israel because of the people's lack of knowledge of the LORD God and their participation in the idolatry of the nations and peoples around them. God desires to show them mercy, but because their repentance is empty and shallow, His judgments are coming upon them. These warnings are so fitting for our people and time, as well!

What would Jesus cast out of your temple? John 2:13-22

Jesus is zealous for God’s house, as the Scriptures say, “Zeal for Your house has eaten me up” (Psalm 69:9). Not only is Jesus concerned for the earthly temples built with our hands; He is concerned with the temples of our bodies which He has created and redeemed. What would He cast out and cleanse away in your body or in your life?

Hosea 3 and 4 Bible Study

Though the time of mercy for Israel had run out, God's mercy is seen in His promises to redeem them and bring them back again. We, too, by our unfaithfulness and lack of knowledge of God, bring on ourselves God's judgment and wrath. He desires that we repent now and turn back to Him for mercy and a knowledge of the truth before it is too late!

Hosea 2 Bible Study

Hosea 2 speaks of the coming judgment of God upon a people who were unfaithful to Him, who turned aside into idolatry instead of worshiping and serving the true God who had so richly blessed them. But Hosea 2 also promises mercy in Jesus Christ so that those who had not received mercy and were not God's people now receive God's mercy and are God's people.
