HOSEA - unfaithfulness and redemption
Another prophetic book, another round of sin, judgement and redemption.Today, as we begin reading the book of Hosea, we may feel a sense of déjà vu. This is not strange for the prophetic books do follow this consistent format. The prophets are people called by God to warn His people and turn them back to Him after all.
However, that does not mean that we only need to read one prophetic book to know all of them because each book may warn of a different sin and its resulting punishment. Even if they were to talk about the same things, they do so differently in order for the message to get through one way or another so that the end result of salvation and deliverance is met.
This is seen in the book of Hosea for although the message is one we are probably extremely familiar with, being that of faithlessness and redemption, its delivery is extraordinarily impactful. This is because the message is conveyed through the life of the prophet.
In fact, the whole story is much like an angsty love movie in which the protagonist’s love is unrequited (Hos 3:1) and his affections spurned. Let us read and see how the tale unfolds.

Twins !
A book by Michelle Zink . It told about a twin sisters that were told that one of them will die. It told about the negative and the positive things about having a twin daughters.
There are some negative things about having twins sisters . First, this book said that having a twin sisters will give a bad luck in that family. Futhermore, the following son or daughter will has a bad luck in his or her life. And finally, the worst thing, this story told that the one of this twin sisters will die and it's happening in that book.
But this story also told us about the postive things of having a twin daughters. First, if they have a brother or a sister, that brother and sister live happily and the special thing is that twin's brother and sister is a kind person. They always help this twins and a twin daughters will have a happy marriage.
Well, this is just a core of this book. But as I told before, this is just a prophecy book, it's not a reality. It depends on you. Will you believe it or not? Of course if I were you, I will believe the positive things only. lol
