概要

We begin our study of the 12 books of the Old Testament that are called the Minor Prophets - Not because what they have to share is "minor" but rather meaning they are much shorter than the other prophetic books like Jeremiah and Isaiah which are much lengthier. The books of the minor prophets are packed with Messianic prophecies and with prophecies about fulfillment at the end of the ages when Messiah (Jesus) returns. Minor Prophets -- In the Hebrew Bible they are called "The Twelve" -- Augustine named them the "Minor Prophets" -- "Minor" based on their length not their importance -- Jewish tradition is that they are arranged chronologically. -- Span of 300-400 years - Pastor shares a timeline of the Hebrew Prophets showing them in historical order. He highlights that before the fall of Israel and before the fall of Jerusalem, God sends many prophets with words of warning to the people to turn back to Him. Hosea -- Ministered to Israel during reign of Jeroboam II who was a successful king by human standards. -- During Jeroboam II's reign it was a time of prosperity and border expansion of land that had been lost and now reconquered and regained. But the Jeroboam II pulled the people away from God. He was not a godly leader. Hosea prophesied that judgement was coming. -- The reign of Jeroboam II was followed by political upheaval (6 kings, 4 assassinations in 30 years) -- Autobiographical book - the book gives us a real glimpse into the difficult life of the prophet. -- His wife, Gomer was promiscuous. She was a picture of the spiritual adultery of the people of God. They were not faithful to Him. God's heart is to pursue them. -- Children with symbolic names Key Themes of Hosea: -- Spiritual Adultery (3:1-5) -- Lacking Knowledge of God - Relationship (4:6) -- God's Unrequited Love Hosea has much prophecy about the coming Messiah and that we are to have inward faith with a life lived in the Lord. It's all about knowing the Living God. God wants us to seek Him, yield our hearts to Him and He will transform us. Joel -- Little knowledge about the prophet Joel -- Name means "The LORD is God" -- Dating is controversial -- Locust plague/"the Day of the Lord" -- Repentance - most of the calls to repentance in the Scriptures are usually directed at God's people. When we see God in His holiness, power and mercy it should drive us to our knees. God want's us to take Him seriously and to humble ourselves before Him. "Tear your hearts, not your clothes." Judgement always begins with the household of God. -- Spiritual reawakening -- Joel 2:28-32 a prophetic word on an outpouring of the Holy Spirit - the release of the Holy Spirit. ""And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days."" and Acts 2:14-21 "Fellow Jews and all of you who live in Jerusalem, let me explain this to you; listen carefully to what I say. These people are not drunk, as you suppose. It's only nine in the morning! No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: "'In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy." -- Joel announces the end of days - the Bible makes it clear that since the coming of Jesus, His ministry, His death, His resurrection and ascension, these are the Last Days. We are called to be flat on our knees before the Living God, yielding ourselves to Him and watching what He will do. Because He yearns and longs to call His children back to Himself and bless them. This is not dusty theology, this is present truth.
