It is more difficult to see the prophetic side of God’s intentions which Peter is clear to point out. In dealing with the faithless Gomer, Hosea foreshadows the faithfulness of Jesus to demonstrate Gods gracious love to every faithless and adulterous generation. It is a messianic perspective of how God’s love can transform us into those who receive mercy and thereby become the people of God!"}
