Many many mercies God is giving us for sure, but as log as we are doing nothing about our violations of His law He isn't going to let us off the hook in the end. When in Hosea god says "My people are destroeyed for lack of khoweldedge" He means they are violating His law without restraint and that's what destroys people. Funny how even beloievers forget that. We aren't destroyed for lack of koweldge about much of anything else, though i shppose such things can contribute, but disobeying god is what destroys people and destroyes nations. If ytou avoid sin, as a person or as a nation, I mean gross sin since we are all sinners in spite of all, or if we sin and repent, the we get blessed by God, He progtects us, keeps us from harm. That's true for nations too. When He says upon giving His people His law from Sinai by Moses, that He is giving them a choice between life and death, therefore choose life, He means obey my law and you will be taken care of, you will live, but if you disobey you will meet with all kinds of destruction and over the history of Isreael their sins led them to destruction. That's what is going to happen to America eentually, and iss alreayd in various forms, if we dont' do soemthing about such grievous sins as gay marriage, abortion "righjts" and many other like offenses.
A t least Christians should be thinking along thse lines and praying our hearts out in repenting and pleasding for mercy. Unless somethig happens in that direction, we are like God's foolish people ahwho ar going to be destroyed as a nation by our lack of knoweldge, meaning our lack of belief that sin brings destruction.
