Amos 8
So we venture near the end of this prophecy and we see the problem:
They loved materialism more than they loved their observance of worship.
When can it be over? The services were packed, but everyone wanted to be out for 12 because they had to go shopping!
They loved profit more than truthfulness. The way they treat others was the main reason God was against them.
They trampled the needy and did away with the poor.
When are we going to stop pointing fingers at the myriad of sins that are related to immoral behaviour and not at the areas that actually are equally as important to God?
We scorn the fornicator and the drunkard but not the person who walks past the Big Issue man with judgment in their heart on a situation they have no clue about.
The poor and needy matter to Him. When will we learn?
Do we need to wait for the fruit to ripe?! It will be too late then.
