The Hos 6:6

Image
series: Our Living Word 2/4 Unveiling a surprising blind spot ..which is really important to Jesus. Hosea’s prophecy is an important key for Christianity, and we can confidently say the same for all of humanity, because the Lord Jesus Christ teaches this verse twice: Once for the sake of his disciples. Once for the sake of the whole world. I desire steadfast love (mercy) and not sacrifice, the knowledge of God rather than burnt offerings. Hos 6:6 As we saw in the first part of the "Living Word" series , our possibilities have fundamentally changed and they have become more extensive with the arrival of Jesus Christ. He knows that Hosea 6:6 holds a profound revelation, often overlooked yet crucial to us all. He spoke openly about the fact that Hosea 6:6 was not just for Israel at that time.

This article explores a striking fractal pattern hidden within two Greek words — suneidesis (conscience) and synergía (synergy, co-working) — both rooted in the same prefix syn- , "together." One shaping us inwardly, the other connecting us outwardly. The dynamic between the two is surprisingly overlooked today. Man and woman were created to live in...

Saint, Holy

Image
I often meet and talk with people from different religious backgrounds. I found astonishingly large number of situations where various misconceptions about holiness and "being saint" were proclaimed. These misconceptions take many different forms, but they are almost always linked to a type of “humility” that is detached from reality and superficial, as well as to a view that one has no value as a person. People simply cannot be free from the "Roman Catholic" misconception that holiness is a human characteristic or quality of the human moral. Let me clarify that last sentence right away. According to Catholic teaching, holiness is not merely a human quality or moral trait, but primarily an essential attribute of God in which human beings share. Human moral perfection can only be called “holiness” in a secondary and derivative sense. Human holiness is indeed, in a moral sense, a quality of a person, but only as the fruit of God’s grace: “moral perfec...
