"Hosea Preaches God's Love? ,
' Hos. 11:1-4, 8, 9; 14:4-9-.- '
The book of Hosea must be read in
its entirety to be understood. The
fragments assigned for the lesson are
too limited tc get the import of the
breadth and the depth of the love of
God. which the prophet teaches. We
knew very little of his life before his
call. He prophesied in the days of
Ussiah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah,
Kings of Juda; and in the days of
Jeroboam II and Jchash, kings of Ju
dah, some 60 years (784-723 B. C.)
Some delicate language has to be
employed to describe the family life
thereby taught the prophet a lesson
that wculd portray the life of God's
chosen people; how he had wcoed
them and entered into a covenant
with them; a marriage contract.
Ilcsea was told to marry a woman
of the street and he found a beautiful
woman by the name Gomer, her fath
er's name was Dablaim. She bore him
three children and then she became
unfaithful, left her home and took up
with other men. They, in turn, tired
of her, can her aside, sinking lower
and lower until one day she was to
be sold as a skive. Hosea came along,
saw a woman on the auction block, he
stepped, recognized his former wife
and bought her lor fifteen pieces cf
silver and seme barley, tool: her home
to the children, where she became a
good mother and companion.
This simple story, which is not
lived in a "vision," nor is it a par
able or allegory, but actual fact. That
is the Uory of God and his people. He
found them in Egypt, brought them
out, cared fod them, protected them,
entered into a contract with them
but they became unfaithful, ran af
ter other godL-, deserted their protec
tor and benefactor like Gomer did.
But like Hosea, who was looking for
beautiful Gcmer, longing for her, lov
ing her until he found her forsaken,
an outcast. Rev. Bernard C. Clausen
gives this beautiful description of
the meeting: "The blinding beauty
of a new revelation was breaking
across Hosea's heart. God is like that.
he was thinking. 'When I stood there
watching her tower before her op
pressors, something swert over me.
I cannot explain it. I did not think, I
did not remember, I did not plan, I
did not judge I just loved her again
and my soul waited in anguished hope
that when she looked up into my eyes
cho would know and love n.e. Tlmt
Is what happens to God when he looks i
upon erring men. God is like that. '
For that one moment, when I was at j
Iny best, I was touching the garments '

Two small children were unusually

so much we can't."

Mayor LaGuardia led Goldman's

local critics- say there were times
when the players didn't seem to pay
much attention to the director. That's

Guardia's conducting, however. Prob
ably Mr. Goldman recalls times when
the same thing happened to him,
too.
Lesson Study!
By L. Neitzel, Murdock. Neb.
of God's love. God is like that '
i The Father love of God! rWlen Is
rael was a child. The reference is to
the early days of God's people- in
Egypt the wilderness wanderings
and the settlement in Canaan. It was
the childhood of the race. "Then I
loved him and called my con out of
Egypt." The doctrine cf the Father
hood of God, so beautifully empha
sized by our savior, is found in the
O. T. and this verse is the first quota
tion in the N. T. (Matt. 2:15).
As Israel practiced idolatry, so is
the race today! There are the idols
of money, power, pleasure, fame, fash
ion and other forms of worldliness.
In all their backsliding, God's eye
was upon them. See in verse 8 the
heartbreaking exclamation of God:
"How shall I give thee up, Ephraim?"
In another place, God's great com
passion gives vent in these words:
"And when I passed by thee and saw
thee polluted in thine own blood . . .
Live; yea I said unto thee when thou
wast in thy blood, Live." (Ezek. 16:
6.) Man strayed away from God,
cannot get beyond the reach of His
love. "I have loved thee with an
everlasting love; therefore with lov
ing kindness have I drawn thee."
(Jcr. 31:3).
If man would take heed and lis
ten to the 'love-call' of the Christ,
open the door and let the Savior in
"how happy then my life would be."
What glorious and wonderful prom
ises arc" held out to those who are
shall dwell under his shadow." a'mate during the hot spell, returned
sure protection." "They shall revive
as grain" after a drouth, and they
will give up their idols, have nothing
more to do with them, a complete sev
erance from all unholy things.
"I am like a green fir tree;" our
lives must be deeply rooted and
grounded in God, if they are to be
strcng. There should be at least as
much underground, hid with Christ !"
in God ai is visible to the world. That
also was Paul's conception of a true
Christian, "being rooted and ground
ed in love." (Eph. 3:17).
"Who is wise, that he mav under
stand these things? Prudent, that he
may know them? For the ways of
Jehovah are right, and the just shall
walk in them; but transgressors shall
fall therein." No truer word has ever
been spoken.
"Behold, therefor the goodness and
severity of God; on them which. fall,
severity; but towards thee, goodness,
if thcu continue in his goodness!
Otherwise, thou shalt also be cut off."
(Rom. 11:22).

If there is one thing more than
another that the American people
enjoy in greater measure than any
thing else, it is freedom of speech.
The ravings of our politicians
count for little, if anything at all
but in common with all political
parties, they enjoy the freedom of
speech, which is the heritage of all
Americans.
The people of America read.
Events of the day are studied with
closer attention than is generally
imagined. The lessons learned have
taught them never to endanger the
freedom of the press ncr the freedom
of thought, for the individual con
structive criticism of parlies in pow
er is always a good thing. It keeps
them on the job with their eyes
open. The vast weight of public opin
ion is on the right side.
The power of the press is a power
to be reckoned with. It not only
buildings public opinion, but it ex
presses public opinion.

than chasing over the country when
the weather is so hot and then when :
