Birds & Fish Mysteriously Dying...
Religulous!?

"Listen to the word of the Lord...
For the Lord has a case against
the inhabitants of the land
,
because there is no faithfulness or...
knowledge of God in the land."

-Hosea 4:1, bold mine
I'm sure glad that God is talking about the old Israelites and not the people of the United States of America.  And I'm sure glad that none of that "Old Testament Stuff" could possibly apply to us today (or seeRomans 15:4 for the truth).
"There is only cursing, lying and murder,
stealing and adultery; they break all bounds,
and bloodshed follows bloodshed. 
 
Because of this...
the birds of the air and
the fish of the sea are dying.
"
-Hosea 4:2-3, bold mine (NIV)

Wow!  How weird would that be?!  The mysterious deaths of birds and fish because of the bankrupt moral condition of the people that God so dearly loves.  I'm sure glad those Old Testament stories are just "myths and fairy tales"* (or see what Jesus said inMatthew 5:18-19).
"My people are destroyed
for lack of knowledge... 
Because you have rejected knowledge...
Since you have forgotten
the law of your God,
I also will forget your children.  
The more they multiplied,
the more they sinned against Me;
I will change their glory into shame."
-Hosea 4:6-7, bold mine

Man, that was some wild stuff that God use to speak through those guys (ie Hosea) back in the day.  I'm sure glad that doesn't happen anymore! (or see Malachi 3:6 Hebrews 13:8).
Aren't you?
