One of the most incredible love stories ever written is found right here in the book of Hosea. It’s a love story about a prophet of God—and a woman of the world… who was a prostitute. This true story of Hosea’s love affair with a sexually immoral woman is so shocking and scandalous that some commentators question whether or not, there might be some other explanation for what happened…
But if we think that it ‘seems inconsistent with reason’ for a holy man of God to fall in love with a prostitute and then marry her… How much more incredible is it… that God would love sinners like us… and marry His Son to our humanity and then punish His dear Son for our sins?
