Title:
Elizabeth Achtemeier - "A Shocking Command" (July 26, 1998)
Description:

  • Sermon start time: (Part 1) 2:37. Sermon end time: (Part 1) 19:12.

  • Achtemeier parallels Gomer/Israel, the harlot wife of Hosea, to modern-day whoring America, wherein promiscuity, adultery, presidential scandals, abortion, and single-parent households as evidence of turning away from a God who – despite it all – still poured out love on the cross and offers new life in Jesus; by shaming the congregation for lust and sexuality, she pushes the congregation to turn to righteous Jesus. (Abstract created by Duke Divinity School staff.)
