Hosea 4:6 Destruction has overtaken my people because they have no knowledge; because you have given up knowledge, I will give you up, so that you will be no priest to me, because you have not kept in mind the law of your God, I will not keep your children in my memory. 7 Even while they were increasing in number they were sinning against me; I will let their glory be changed into shame. 8 The sin of my people is like food to them; and their desire is for their wrongdoing.
9 And the priest will be like the people; I will give them punishment for their evil ways, and the reward of their acts. (Bible in Basic English)

Ephraim is still Ephraim, kicking & persecuting & paying the
price, down the generational line.

These verses could be used to describe Israel's rejection of the Savior and also the Apostasy of the second century church when the priesthood was removed from the world.

And people say the bible is not relevant for today. That is right on target for today and the sad part about it is that He's talking about His own people, so how much worse is the rest of society? Frightening isn't it!

Want another?
Jer 4:22 For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
But Israel everytime they got fat, blessed and happy always forgot about GOD.
Deu 32:15 But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked: thou art waxen fat, thou art grown thick, thou art covered with fatness; then he forsook God which made him, and lightly esteemed the Rock of his salvation.
Then GOD would ALWAYS stir up an adversary to come against them, to bring em back to GOD.
Now we are getting mighty overdue.

Yes...it seems appropriate to me. The knowledge that modern society has lost is the knowledge of God. I think it got lost in all the religion!....Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!
