Amos

THe PROPHET FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE


This shepherd and dresser of sycamore trees becomes a prophet with a burden. Overwhelmed with a strong sense of social justice, Amos prophesies into the corrupt society of Israel. God’s people were not reflecting God’s heart; they lacked mercy, were robbing the poor and God wanted them to know that he knew what was going on. This powerful book shows the heart of God against pride, arrogance and corruption in his people and the heart of the prophet who changed God’s mind.

dive - GOD IN MY POCKET | katie haldane

At times I don’t think in our humanity we are comfortable with God acting like the all-powerful God that he is. We like to be in control, we like to know that he is on our side and won’t do anything that makes our temporal life uncomfortable.

The book of Amos, as many of the other Prophetic Writings, requires a vigilant and measured hermeneutic for the fullness of its content to be comprehensively appreciated. Written in a politically and nationally multifaceted time, the book of Amos seeks to offer not only a unified perspective on the justice and the righteousness of Yahweh, but furthermore, reminds Israel and believers of today, that God is sovereign and merciful over His creation.
