Hosea 3:1 " Then said the Lord unto me,Go yet,love a woman beloved of her friend,yet an adulteress, according to the Lord toward the children of Israel,who look to other gods,and love flagons of wine."
God's love for us is unconditional.He loves us inspite of, and Jesus tells us to love one another as He has loved us.See we are to love each other regardless.Not so much because of who we are, or who they are ,but because of whose we claim to be and who they belong to.Jesus died to save the whole world. All souls belong to Him and He shed just as much blood for the least of them as He did the greatest of them.
Here in our text God tells Hosea to go marry a harlot or a prostitute.See he wanted Hosea to feel what He feels when those who claim to be His go a whoring around with other gods.See we claim to be part of the bride of Christ ,yet we fornicate and committe adultry,as we play footsy under the covers with the enemy.With our lips we tell the Lord we love Him yet our actions show a love for another.In our story after Gomar was taken from a beautiful woman down to a as we say today a skank,God told Hosea to go and buy her back and love her inspite of.After sin has taken us from being in the image and likeness of God, down to something born in sin and shaped in iniquity,God sent His only begotten Son to redeem us back and He loved us inspite of.
Nobody forces us to profess Christianity,so it is the profession of our own faith.So if you profess to be Christ like, live Christ like and love like Christ loves.We must love inspite of.We must love even the worst of men,after all in Gods eyes at one time we were all the worst of men.And no matter who you are,when it comes to salvation we are all the same, lost in need of a savior,and all must come to Christ the same way.Let us love one another unconditionally.
