OT = God uses the idea of a unfaithful wife to show us so we understand how we would feel if we were treated the why Isreal has been treating God. Gods wife (US) has been unfaithful and the imagery used sends it home, if you have every been cheated on you know how that makes you feel but you still love, WHY. why does God still loves us?
NT = I do not understand why I believe that my savior Jesus is a place of ...safety and happiness, that is everlasting a High Priest who is able to save to the uttermost, in all times, in all cases. Christ's sacrifice makes possible the purification of all sin and uncleanness, allowing those who believe in him to come near to God, to come into the true holy place, and to engage in holy worship without being displeasing to God.
"Lord Jesus Christ, by your death on the cross you have ransomed us from slavery to sin and by the shedding of your blood you have cleansed us from our guilt. Help me to always live in your presence and to do what is pleasing in your sight."
Our Father, Who is in heaven, Holy is Your Name; Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.
