Hosea 7:8 Ephraim, he hath mixed himself among the people; Ephraim is a cake not turned.
Have you ever wrapped something in foil and put it on the BBQ and forget to turn it...then when you take it off you find it's burnt on one side and not cooked on the other? What do you do with it? Throw it out! It's no good for anything! Ephraim was like that..they had some form of obedience and holiness but it hadn't gone right through the very center of their being. There was still much rebellion left. They still mixed in with the heathen so you couldn't tell who was who. They were like a cake not turned.
God doesn't expect us to be perfect and never make mistakes but we can't have the appearance of holiness in one area and reigning sin in another, we can't be like a cake not turned. If so, then we are good for nothing. We have to let the Word of God permeate through every fiber of our being. A double minded person is unstable in all his/her ways.
