Tune in to hear Pastor Josh preach from Hosea 8&9 this morning:
“Many think they know God, but do not because their knowledge is derived from human opinions and is not informed by the whole counsel of God’s word…So what is our application today? We have not (to my knowledge) bowed to a golden calf or applied to Egypt or Assyria for political gain…God is gracious to us church. He does not allow other things to fulfill the desire that we have for him who is the giver of all good things…These are the things we need to check ourselves in: Am I content with what God has provided through all the means he has granted to be at my disposal? Is discontentment revealing that I am not finding my joy, hope and fulfillment in Christ? When we look to other functional saviors, it reveals the deeper heart issue of things we have not truly believed in the gospel. What is it about Christ that you have not found to be good? As Augustine famously wrote: You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they rest in You.”
