The prophet Hosea's life was an object lesson to the nation of Israel. He was called to take a wife who was unfaithful, and after he married her and had children with her, she remained unfaithful. The Lord commanded him to go and buy her back unto himself, and that is what the Lord did for us in the NT when Jesus died on the cross. He rose again on…

In chapter 15 of 2 Kings we see the downward spiral of the northern ten tribes of Israel.

The Bible says, “God is not the author of confusion but of peace,” 1 Corinthians 14:33.

The peace of God is clearly seen throughout the Scripture. The Bible says in Luke 2:15 that when Christ Jesus came i…

The Bible says in 1 John 1:7 that ‘if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship one with another and the blood of His Son Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.’ The word of God clearly teaches that in Christ, Christians have fellowship.

In Psalm 8:4 we find that compelling and ever humbling question that the psalmist asked. “What is man? God, what is man that you care for him, or the son of Man that you look after him?” As I think about this wonderful question, it humbles us to realize there is an answer in Scripture as to why God cares for me and for you. Why does He care for me?…

While doing so, one of the men who had borrowed a…
