- 1Then said the LORD unto me, Go yet, love a woman beloved of her friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of the LORD toward the children of Israel, who look to other gods, and love flagons of wine.
- 2So I bought her to me for fifteen pieces of silver, and for an homer of barley, and an half homer of barley:
- 3And I said unto her, Thou shalt abide for me many days; thou shalt not play the harlot, and thou shalt not be for another man: so will I also be for thee.
- 4For the children of Israel shall abide many days without a king, and without a prince, and without a sacrifice, and without an image, and without an ephod, and without teraphim:
- 5Afterward shall the children of Israel return, and seek the LORD their God, and David their king; and shall fear the LORD and his goodness in the latter days.

Cosmic Signs
In “Cosmic Signs,” Pastor Dean Odle presents a Scripture-centered message about eternal life and hope, faith, Satanic opposition. Drawing especially from Luke 21, Matthew 24, Hosea 3, Hosea 4, the teaching emphasizes that the promise of eternal life directs believers toward hope, holiness, and perseverance in Christ. Odle connects that foundation with the conviction that biblical faith trusts God’s character and acts upon His promises.
