Hoseas 12

Study

   

1 Efraims Hu står til Vind, efter Østenstorm jager han stadig, af Løgn og Svig er han fuld; med Assur slutter de Pagt, til Ægypten bringer de Olie.

2 HE EN går i ette med Juda og hjemsøger Jakob, gengælder ham efter hans Veje og efter hans Id.

3 I Moders Liv overlisted han sin Broder, han stred med Gud i sin Manddom,

4 ja stred med en Engel og sejred, han bad ham med Gråd om Nåde; i Betel traf han ham og talte med ham der,

5 HE EN, Hærskarers Gud, HE EN er hans Navn:

6 "Drag du nu hjem med din Gud, tag Vare på Kærlighed og et og bi bestandig på din Gud!"

7 I Kana'ans Hånd er falske Lodder, han elsker Svig.

8 Efraim siger: "Jeg vandt dog igdom og Gods!" Al hans Vinding soner ej Brøden, han øved.

9 Men jeg, som er HE EN din Gud, fra du var i Ægypten, lader dig bo i Telt igen som i svundne Dage.

10 Jeg har talet til Profeterne og givet mange Syner, ved Profeterne talet i Lignelser.

11 Gilead er Løgn og Tomhed, i Gilgal ofrer de Tyre; som Stendynger langs med Markfurer er deres Altre.

12 Jakob flyede til Arams Slette, og Israel trællede for en kvindes Skyld, og for en Kvindes Skyld vogtede han kvæg.

13 Ved en Profet førte HE EN Israel op fra Ægypten, og det vogtedes ved en Profet.

14 Efraim vakte bitter Vrede, han bærer Blodskyld; med Skændsel dænges han til, hans Herre gør Gengæld.

Scriptural Confirmations #4

  
/ 101  
  

4. 2. The Son of God (Romans 1:3-4).

Called after Jesus Christ, Christians (Romans 1:6) through the faith of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:22).

Faith in Christ. Through Jesus Christ we have peace toward God, and to God we have access by faith into this grace, and we glory in the hope of the glory of God (Romans 5:1-2).

By Jesus Christ were we reconciled to God (Romans 5:10,11).

As by one man sin entered into the world, so by the justice of one are we justified (Romans 5:12, 13, 15, 18-19).

There is no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit, in order that the justification of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the spirit (Romans 8:1-4). Christ is at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us (Romans 8:34).

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, distress, hunger, death, angels, principalities, height, depth, etc. (Romans 8:35-39)?

From the fathers Christ is according to the flesh, who is over all; God blessed forever. Amen (Romans 9:5).

Whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord, shall be saved (Romans 10:13).

We are one body in Christ; all are members having different gifts according to grace (Romans 12:5-6). The gifts which belong to different members are enumerated in a long series (verses 6, 13).

Put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ (Romans 13:14).

Whether we live, we live in the Lord; whether we die, we die in the Lord; therefore, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. For to this end Christ both died and rose and lived again that He might be Lord both of the dead and of the living (Romans 14:8-9).

It is written, I live, saith the Lord, for every knee shall bow to Me, and every tongue shall confess to God (Romans 14:11). Isaiah saith, there shall be a root of Jesse, and He that shall rise to rule over the nations; in Him shall the nations hope (Romans 15:12).

The Gospel of Christ (Romans 15:19-21).

Chosen and tried in the Lord, in Christ: to work and labor in the Lord (Romans 16:8-13).
