A sermon on Hosea 9

Name: A sermon on Hosea 9
Uploaded: 2026-07-20T11:33:55.000Z
Duration: 64 min 55 s
Description: God cures Israel's spiritual delusion; their conviction that idolatrous, syncretistic religion was pleasing to him; not by half-measures but by tearing down every false refuge through exile, forcing them to confront their true condition and lose their idolized 'glory' (fruitfulness), so they would flee back to the true and only refuge, the cross of Christ.
