6  Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

The administration of Satan on the earth killed the saints of God and the cup with the blood of the saints is now full. At the fifth seal judgment it was apparent that the cup was not full but now it is full. So at this point, we are at the end of the tribulation period for God’s people. Now the time has come to pay back in spades those who have persecuted God’s people.

7  How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

Satanic Babylon really thinks that she is beyond judgment and that she will see no sorrow like divorced Israel.  This is the ultimate replacement theology. This woman thinks she is a queen. She believes she makes up the real kingdom of God.  There are those in replacement theology in Christianity who say that God is done with Israel and they are the promised kingdom on earth but those that are found in Babylon are so adamant about it that they become prideful. Most of us know that pride goes before a fall and this is exactly what this passage implies.

Those that think that Israel is a widow and say that God is through with Israel and will have no further dealings with the Jews need to understand some crucial facts.  God sent John the Baptist and His Son to the nation of Israel even after they sold themselves into divorcement. God’s calling to Israel is irrevocable  (Romans 11:29). When Israel returns to God and accepts the Messiah He chose for her, she will be restored.

Isaiah 50:1  Thus saith the LORD, Where is the bill of your mother’s  divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold,  for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves,  and for your transgressions is your mother put away.

***A small side study into Hosea and Roman's is in order to clarify that God will restore natural Israel.***

Hosea 2:14  Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and  bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her.

15 And I will give her her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and  as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.

The wilderness Hosea is talking about is where the faithful and obedient of Israel flee. Israel is supernaturally protected by God from the Beast in the mountains near Petra.

16  And it shall be at that day, saith the LORD, that  thou shalt call me Ishi; and shalt call me no more Baali.

Ishi means “he saves me”.  Baali means “my Lord” and also is a variation of the name Baal (Satan) who was the lord of Israel in her harlotry.

17  For I will take away the names of Baalim out of her mouth, and they shall no more be remembered by their name.

Baalim is plural for Baal (the chief pagan god in the time of Hosea). This passage is saying the idols of Baal will not be remembered in Israel any more.

18  And in that day will I make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field, and with the fowls of heaven, and with the creeping things of the ground: and I will break the bow and the sword and the battle out of the earth, and will make  them to lie down safely.

This verse in Hosea is talking about the end of violence on the earth. Even the nature of animals will be changed to be as their nature was before the fall of man.

19  And I will betroth thee unto me for ever; yea, I will betroth thee unto me in righteousness, and in judgment, and in lovingkindness, and in mercies.

20  I will even betroth thee unto me in faithfulness: and thou shalt know the LORD.

21  And it shall come to pass in that day, I will hear, saith the LORD, I will hear the heavens, and they shall hear the earth;

22  And the earth shall hear the corn, and the wine, and the oil; and they shall hear Jezreel.

23  And I will sow her unto me in the earth; and I will have mercy upon her that had not obtained mercy; and  I will say to them which were not my people, Thou art my people;  and they shall say, Thou art my God.

The passage is not talking about the grafted in Gentiles as some say. In the context, it is talking about the same people that God rejected for harlotry. The passage is talking about the restoration of Israel. Israel sold herself into divorcement. When Israel returns to God He will not reject her because God hates divorce and has provided a way back through the New Covenant! When was the grafted in Church already in the New Covenant ever not His people?

The book of Hosea not only happened as written but t he book is a true prophetic story of God dealing with Israel until the end.  These truths demolish the lie that God is done with Israel. All who think that God is done with Israel do not know the prophetic scriptures and have bought into a  satanic lie. Prophetic scripture makes it clear that God chose Israel for His own purposes and that He will rule His kingdom on earth from Jerusalem in an Israelite kingdom. Most of the leaders of Israel of the past rejected Him and for this reason,  God has delayed the kingdom of the Jews until the nation acknowledges its offense. This delay gave believing Gentiles a time of grace to be grafted into the the New Covenant promise that was actually given to Israel and Judah.

Hosea 5:15  I will go and return to my place, till they acknowledge  their offence, and seek my face: in their affliction they will seek me early.

It was always God’s plan for those descended from Israel to fulfill the physical kingdom promises to Israel for  his calling is irrevocable.

Romans 9:4  Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the giving of the law, and the service of God,  and the promises; 

Romans 11:25   For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery,  lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

26  And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

27  For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

28  As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers’ sakes.

29  For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

  ( Romans 9:29 means they cannot be changed.)

30  For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

31  Even so have these also now not believed, that  through your mercy  they also may obtain mercy.

32  For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.

From these passages and many others, it is very clear that God plans to restore Israel in the last days.
