The title of the book "Return to the Lord" is the theme and emphasis in this brief commentary of Hosea. "O Israel, return to the Lord your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity; Take words with you and return to the Lord" (Hosea 14:1). This book traces the historical events and spiritual condition of Israel prior to the fall of the northern kingdom in 722 B.C. The Old Testament congregation turned away from the true God and committed spiritual adultery by worshipping false gods. Hosea understood that the Israelites were religious, but their religion was going the wrong direction. They were turning away from the true God and taking pleasure in spiritual adultery by worshiping false gods. The sin nature will always try to deceive people to wander away from God. Hosea's message was "Return to the Lord."Return to the Lord It is more than a title; it describes the spiritual condition of Israel and may be applied to the people of God in every generation. Hosea understood that the Israelites were religious, but in their religious zeal they accumulated a host of false gods to worship. The sin nature will always try to deceive people to wander away from God. Hosea's message will challenge Christians to return to the Lord. This book will be useful to pastors, Sunday School teachers, and laymen who want to dig deeper into the word of God.Dr. Richard Pratt said, "I have read through it and admire what you have done. We need more correct and practical instruction in the prophetic books, and you have given us just that."
