*COMMENTARY ON TODAY'S BIBLE READING*
*HOSEA6οΈβ£*
βIf anyone was offended, I am sorry.β How many times have we heard those forms of non-apology apologies? The offensive thing about that kind of apology is that it never expresses remorse; it only brushes over the hurt feelings of the other individual and assumes the restoration of the relationship with its attendant benefits.
In this chapter, the Israelites are expressing this form of inauthentic repentance. Capitalizing on the divine attributes of mercy, grace, and
forgiveness, they hurry towards God. They are not remorseful about their sins, rather they are focused on the benefits of such a return, namely, cessation of calamities and resumption of blessings.
God, however, sees right through their feigned repentance and counsels them that βI want you to show love, not offer sacrifices. I want you to know me more than I want burnt offerings.β Hosea 6:6 NLT
In what ways have you offered forms of non-apology apologies to God? Are you focused on what you can get from God (rewards) or what you can avoid (punishments) instead of an abiding deep relationship with Him? Are you willing to ask for genuine repentance from God (Romans 2:4)?
So, how do we call this pouring blessings or what?
