Obedience can be hard. As Westerners, we embrace certain rights as Americans demand them, but our will must submit to the will of the Lord, as Jack Riggs in His book “Hosea's Heartbreak” wrote, “So too, believers must positively accept God's will as well as do His will to lead them as He Leads therein. All right's mast make way for God's rights.” (Pg. 48:Loizeaux Brothers; 1983) Calvin wrote in His “Commentary on Hosea” this:
“ It hence appears with how great and with how invincible courage and perseverance he was endued by the Holy Spirit. But when God employs our service for twenty or thirty years we think it very wearisome, especially when we have to contend with wicked men, and those who do not willingly undertake the yoke, but pertinaciously resist us; we then instantly desire to be set free, and wish to become like soldiers who have completed their time.”(Pg.23)
The power of the West has been destroyed. We, Westerners, no longer possess the power of God, and therefore, the manifestation of God's love is hidden from us. He loves the individuals not the countries anymore. The Lord no longer fights for us.In the Last days the Cherokee, Afghans, etc will come back to Israel. Messiah will be their head. The twelve tribes will once again be a nation.
The West will face destruction if it does not return to the Lord. Americans are sex addicts. The Holy One was instrumental in establishing Western Civilization. It was even called Christendom. Now, we worship our minds. And sell our bodies to hook ups, transgender, and all other sexual perversion. The Lord proved the harvests, not our minds; therefore, He will bring drought as He brought COVID-19. Our sexual perversion will be destroyed so we will know the Lord.
God intends Mercy. He chose to give us wheat, as Jack Rigs wrote later in “Hosea’s Heartbreak,” “He has mercy on man, not because he deserves it, but because it is His plan to do so.” (Pg. 58) When we love the Lord, we will be His people. The Lord so loved the world that He gave Messiah. But He chose not to know us personally until we chose to leave our sins.. We have a relationship with God though Yeshua, our Messiah.
The prosperity of Christendom caused its downfall. Wealth is both a blessing and a curse. In developing, the West chose and developed the idols of our own mind, ignoring the One that made us great as John Calvin wrote later in the same work, this:
“But God not only reproves the people here for having been always obstinate but also for having, as it were designedly increased their vices. For it was like a horrible conspiracy against God for the people, as soon as they acquired new strength, to multiply altars to themselves, when yet the Lord had already shown, by clear evidences, that fictitious modes. of worship did not please him; nay, that they were to him the greatest abominations.” (Pg. 357)
We have sinned. Our food is trash. We have cried in defense of sinfulness. The Almighty will destroy our glory and give use over to our enemies, for our sins will destroy us. Our only hope is making repentance as Hosea 10:12 states, “Sow with a view to righteousness, Reap in accordance with kindness; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD Until He comes to rain righteousness on you.” NASU
Can God “give up” on the West? God loves you and redeemed you. We sinned but the Lord kept loving us; therefore, He must Judge. Our cities will be destroyed. At the end of time, the Lost Tribes will come home.
The West has sinned , but Christians too have a message. They must follow the Lord as Hosea latter wrote in Hos 12:6, “Therefore, return to your God, Observe kindness and justice, And wait for your God continually.” NASU Holiness must be our guide.
Western Civilization exalted itself. It worshiped the mind. Now, it has made the golden idol through its increase. Pastors create false worship defining the Lord. Defining the Almighty is kissing a calf. But, there is coming a day when the graves will be open and all will see the Lord,
Now is the Time of Repentance. Hosea ended his book this way, “Whoever is wise, let him understand these things; Whoever is discerning, let him know them. For the ways of the LORD are right, And the righteous will walk in them, But transgressors will stumble in them.” Hos 14:9 NASU
