Vietnamese 1994 (Lời Chúa Cho Mọi Người) (Translated by 1 Pastor)
Vì thiếu hiểu biết mà dân Ta bị tiêu vong. Bởi chính ngươi đã gạt bỏ sự hiểu biết, nên Ta sẽ gạt bỏ ngươi, không cho làm tư tế của Ta nữa ; ngươi đã quên luật của Thiên Chúa ngươi thờ, thì Ta, Ta cũng sẽ quên con cái ngươi.
Điều này có nghĩa gì?
In Hosea 4:6, God is speaking to the people of Israel and saying that they are suffering because they lack knowledge about Him and His laws. He warns them that if they continue to reject this knowledge, He will also reject them from serving as priests for Him.

Imagine you're playing a game, but you don't know all the rules. Your friend says, 'You can't play right because you forgot how the game works.' God is like that friend, saying to His people, 'If you forget my rules, we won’t be able to keep playing together.'

What does it mean when God says He will 'reject' the people?
God's rejection means that they would no longer be allowed to serve Him as priests. This shows how important knowledge and adherence to God’s laws are in maintaining a close relationship with Him.
Why does forgetting God's law lead to being rejected?
Forgetting God's law indicates a lack of respect for His teachings, which can lead to spiritual negligence. When people neglect what is important, they risk losing the privileges and blessings that come with following God’s will.
How does Hosea 4:6 relate to today's Christian life?
It reminds us of the importance of continually learning about God through His Word. Without this knowledge, we can easily stray from Him, just as the Israelites did in Hosea’s time.
Are there any positive outcomes if we seek to regain this lost knowledge?
Yes, seeking and understanding God's teachings can lead to a restored relationship with Him. When we strive to learn His ways, it shows our commitment and desire for spiritual growth.
