Amos 5:4-17
“Judgment is coming.” That’s the message the prophet Amos has been sent to deliver to Israel. But so far, they refuse to turn from their wicked living. Even so, he continues to call for repentance saying, “Seek the Lord and live!” Dr. J. Vernon McGee says the warning and invitation from God is for each of us as well.
Amos 4:10-5:5
As the prophet Amos continues to warn of God’s impending judgement, Bethel and Gilgal paid no attention and perish. Dr. McGee reminds us that, like Israel, we all must be prepared to meet God someday, and in His mercy, the invitation to forsake our idol worship and return to Him remains open.
Amos 4:1-10
Turn from sin; judgment is coming! That’s the message the prophet Amos was sent to tell Israel. Amos’ message was anything but subtle, in fact he even used biting sarcasm, reminding people of the famine, droughts, locusts, and warfare that came before.
Amos 3:7-4:1
“God always warns His people before judging them.” That’s the message we’ll hear from Dr. J. Vernon McGee as we’re reminded of examples from the days of Noah, Abraham, Joseph, Elijah, and even Jesus’ warning of Jerusalem’s own destruction.
Amos 3:1-6
“Greater privilege means greater responsibility.” That’s what we hear in this study in Amos, as he continues to build the case against Israel and reminds them of their privilege when Abraham was called from the apostasy of the Tower of Babel.
Amos 2:9-3:2
“The voice of God is not being heard in this land,” says Dr. J. Vernon McGee in this study. That’s also the word Amos had for the Israelites in his day. Learn more about God’s case against Israel and the harsh judgement He has in store for all those who turn their backs on Him.
Amos 2:1-9
In this study, we see how Amos overruled all celebrity order in his day and spoke the truth directly to those who needed to hear it—including about judgements against Moab, Judah, and Israel.
Amos 1:4-15
The message of God’s judgement continues as Amos shares the charges against Philistia, Phoenicia, Edom, and Ammon.
Amos 1:1-3; 7:13-16
Amos was a man called by God to point out people’s sin. Tough job, right? Especially for an outsider, a country boy in a big city. But Amos didn’t falter; he faithfully foretold of the judgement and justice God has in store in Israel and all the nations surrounding her, beginning with Syria.
Amos 1:1,7,10-12
The story of Amos is that of a country preacher sent to the big city of his time with a message for the king and high society! Although Amos may have been naïve, he had a message from God and gave it fearlessly and faithfully. But will the people listen? And how will God respond?
