'True Worship'

Hard To Believe

In Chapter 5, two central themes from Amos’s prophecies reach a climax: his criticism of Israel’s worship and his emphasis on the importance of justice and righteousness.
The people of God have converted the life-giving power of justice into poison. Therefore, their worship has become odious to God and no amount of enthusiasm can compensate for that.
Unless the Israelites urgently recommit to seek the Lord, the poison they have unleashed will destroy their world.
