BMC Message Feb 11 2024 | Choosing Baby Names - Hosea 1:5-2:1

Good news is better when it is followed by bad news. The gospel is good because the bad news is really bad. The gospel begins with bad news, and so does the message Hosea delivers. With the naming of each child, Hosea's message of doom had grown more intense: from the warning of imminent judgment, to the cessation of God's love, and now to the tragic pronouncement that Israel no longer belonged to God. As we reflect on our relationship with God. The invitation and call for each of us is to return
back to God, and as we do that, we acknowledge the sin in our lives and our need for a savior.
