In Hosea Chapter 8 the nation of Israel cries out "Lord we know You!" but God doesn't recognise them at all. God says you recognise His people by their fruits - and Israel was not fruitful! Sadly the reasons why they were not fruitful are just as common and dangerous to the church today as back then: the twin threats of Ritualism and Liberalism. Praise the Lord that in Jesus Christ and Him crucified we find the antidote to both!
