216: The Slayer (Hosea 9-12)

from Wholly Buyable · host Chas Bayfield

If the Old Testament prophet Hosea is known for anything, it is because God orders him to marry a "promiscuous woman".And though this action dominates the early part of Hosea's book, it is not even referred to in the later chapters. The marriage is simply a teachable moment to alert Israel's Jews of the danger of worshipping gods that aren't God, but it is the tragedy that befalls a nation which abandons God that is spelled out here.If it's righteous anger delivered with a poetic punch you're after, you're in for a treat.Written and produced by Chas BayfieldMusic by Michael Auld and Jon Hawkins MusicCover art by Lisa GoffE: [email protected]: Wholly Buyable Podcast

Now You See TV Jonathan Pounders About UsStatement of Faith Covenant:We are not a Hebrew Roots, Messianic, Jewish, modern Christian or a New Age ministry. We believe wholly in the scriptures from Genesis to Revelation. We believe that Yeshua is the Messiah and there is no other means of salvation or redemption other than Him. We believe He is the only way to the Father. We believe that obedience to His word is a part of Faith and the two cannot be separate. We believe that the Father is One with the Son and the Spirit. We do not believe that Yeshua was a creature; but is coequal and coeternal with the Father. We believe the greatest commandment that encompasses all other commands and demands they be fulfilled (practiced) is to “love YHVH your God with all your heart” soul and mind.Our pledge to our listeners:1. We believe that New Age, Mysticism, Theosophy, Hinduism, Buddhism, Ascended Master Teachings, Kabbalah, Taoism, Witchcraft, Freemasonry and any forms, subgroups, or offshoots Nana by Émile Zola Loyal Books Excerpt from Introduction:"Nana" stands third in popularity among the Zola novels. It is a study of the prostitute type and it gives a memorable picture of the life of the tinsel underworld of the Paris theaters, night life, and its parasites. Perhaps Zola pursues Nana a bit too relentlessly: certainly his putting a period to her career by showing her as a putrefying corpse is more symbolic than is wholly necessary; but it remains a novel of truth and beauty, even if a beauty of a drab and often terrible sort.Summary by Burton Rascoe / Celine Major
