Rejoice not, O Israel, you 10 lost
tribes who today do not even know who you are!
The Party's Soon Over!
It is important that you know at
least the basics of agriculture and farming
and about "fertile" ground and
"seed" planting and early and latter day "rain"
and when it is time for the
harvests (plural).
It is written in Romans 1:20, "For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse".
Creation itself is no accident!
God even designed and made agriculture and the farming
process specifically in accordance with His Word
and His plan and to make it very simple and easy for
us to understand.
In fact, His-story begins with the
garden which He planted eastward in Eden where He placed Adam,
the man He created to till the
ground (Gen. 2:5), to faithfully dress it and keep it.
But Adam did not faithfully keep things in order in the garden and consequently he had to pay the price: Genesis 3:23 "Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence he was taken." But now his "labor in the field" would be among "thorns and thistles" which the ground would now bring forth to him (Gen. 3:18).
So how are you doing with your garden?
The reason for the question is,
that whether you know it or not or whether you believe it not,
harvest time, the time of reaping,
is soon upon this ripening final generation which,
according to the Parable of Fig
Tree, was planted (began) on May 15, 1948.
You see, Jesus Christ who has "foretold us all things"
(if we will take the time to study His Word and
read those things)
even gave us the instruction to learn the Parable of
the Fig Tree
so that we could determine when summer is near, i.e.
when it is harvest time!
In other words, "You reap what you sow!"
So, if you have "eyes to see" and "ears to hear"
then you will find that the point
of today's study and this 9th chapter of the Book of Hosea
is really no different than that
of Adam's and Eve's.
One thing we as Christians must learn and understand well,
and that is that "there is nothing new under the sun
(Eccles. 1:9)".
As it was in the beginning, so shall it be at the end!
Christ even said in Matthew 24:37 "But as the days of Noe [Noah] were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."
That takes it way back, doesn't it?
Let us begin:
Hosea 9:1 Rejoice not, O Israel, for joy, as other people: for thou hast gone a whoring from thy God, thou hast loved a reward upon every cornfloor.
To study the Bible is the noblest of all pursuits;
to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
