1) Unconditional LOVE (v. 1). ‌2) Willing SACRIFICE (v. 2-4). ‌3) Absolute RESTORATION (v. 5). ‌ Hosea -> הוֹשֵׁעַ -> Hoshe'a = SLAVATION ‌LOVE + SACRIFICE + RESTORATION = JESUS! LOVE: John 3:16 SACRIFICE: 1 Peter 2:24 RESTORATION: Romans 5:9–10 ‌ Hosea 6:1–2 “Come, let us return to the Lord; for he has torn us, that he may heal us; he has struck us down, and he will bind us up. After two days he will revive us; on the third day he will raise us up, that we may live before him.” ‌ Big Idea Salvation is a free gift, not earned through works, but ONLY through FAITH in the SHED BLOOD OF JESUS!
