Oppressors and Hypocrites Judged

Today’s Feast Oct. 14, 2014- Amos 8 Oppressors and Hypocrites Judged clic aquí en español Please join with us sharing God’s Word daily.  We will spend about fifteen minutes a day praying and reading every word in God’s Word in approximately three years.  Gods Not Dead! “30 Then they will begin to say to the mountains, ‘Fall on us,’ and to the hills, ‘Cover us.’”  Luke 23:30 Return to Admenu – Admenu’s Alternate Site Dear Saints, Today we prayerfully continue our Feast by reading the book of Amos Chapter 8; “The near approach of the ruin of Israel. (1-3) Oppression reproved. (4-10) A famine of the word of God. (11-14) ” – Matthew Henry Concise God shows Amos a vision of summer fruit; (see Amos 8:1-3 ) which signified God’s people were ripe for destruction.   God hates the greedy, proud and rich men that exploit the poor; (see Amos 8:4-10 ) and Judgment is coming to those oppressors and hypocrites.  Therefore God warns the people (see Amos 8:11-14) that He will withhold His Word from them; “13 "In that day the lovely virgins and the young men shall faint for thirst. 14 Those who swear by the Guilt of Samaria, and say, 'As your god lives, O Dan,' and, 'As the Way of Beersheba lives,' they shall fall, and never rise again."” Amos 8:13-14 English Standard Versions (ESV).  Look at the world around us getting more sinful every day; (see Genesis 3:19) God did man a favor when death came with along with sin.  And along with that death for our sins (see 1 Thessalonians 5:9) God gave us a way out; “ 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” Romans 12:2 ESV.  One of the biggest lessons we learn in God’s Word; (see 2 Peter 3:9) is that he is not willing that anyone dies in their sin.  Along the same line God sent Jesus to pay for our sin (see Matthew 6:33) so there is no need for us to perish with the oppressors and hypocrites.
