The Cry of the Prophets

This is the will of God concerning His people / the true church: That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word . . . Ephesians 5:26

Hosea 6:1 – Come, and let us return unto the Lord: for He hath torn, and He will heal us; He hath smitten, and He will bind us up.

To walk in faith is believing the Word of the Lord plus keeping the Commandments of God. The two go hand in hand, those who do these things will be called a friend of God.

Hos 8:13  They sacrifice flesh for the sacrifices of mine offerings, and eat it; but the LORD accepteth them not; now will he remember their iniquity, and visit their sins: they shall return to Egypt.  Hos 8:14  For Israel hath forgotten his Maker, and buildeth temples; and Judah hath multiplied fenced cities: but I will send a fire upon his cities, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.

Mat 7:18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Mat 7:19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Mat 7:20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

You will guide me by Your counsel and afterward, receive me into glory.
