Israel has plowed wickedness and reaped iniquity. Hosea calls upon Israel to seek the Lord. Israel, as a child, was called out of Egypt in similitude of our Lord, as a child, coming out of Egypt. But Ephraim turns away from the Lord. The Lord uses prophets, visions, and similitudes to guide his people, but they become rich and will not wait on the Lord. Ephraim provokes him most bitterly. Ephraim’s sins provoke the Lord. There is no Savior beside the Lord. He ransoms from the grave and redeems from death. In the last days, Ephraim will repent and return unto the Lord.
Call a solemn assembly and gather to the house of the Lord, for the day of the Lord is at hand. War and desolation will precede the Second Coming. The sun and the moon will be darkened. The Lord will pour out his Spirit upon all flesh. There will be dreams and visions. All nations will be at war. Multitudes will stand in the valley of decision as the Second Coming draws near. The Lord will dwell in Zion
