HOSEA 9

FALSE GODS ARE WORTHLESS COMPARED TO GOD 

Through Hosea’s message, God calls Israel to put an end to their fleeting pleasures. God warns Israel that once they face oppression from other nations, their false gods will prove to be powerless.

Baal worship has drawn the Israelites to sin, making them detestable like the false gods they serve. God will remember the sins of the Israelites and their broken covenant, allowing them to be punished for the unfaithfulness.
