    Amos has three visions which demonstrate that there will come a point when God gets fed up and He will not relent from His judgment.

I am special correspondent Shinon Byorus for the Mesopotamian News Network, coming to you live from Bethel in Israel, where controversy has been stirring for months around the inflammatory rhetoric from the prophet Amos, who appeared some time ago from Judea with a very harsh message ...read more

    God's warning is an act of grace, an act of love and a gift of hope. His desire is not to condemn but to save.

    [Read Amos 7:7-17] Amos saw a vision – God standing by a wall that has been built true and straight. • He was also holding a plumb line in His hand, to confirm that the wall has been build true and straight. • If the wall is true, the plumb line will prove it. If it is not, then ...read more

    A sermon emphasising the righteousness of God.

    The Power of the plumb Line Amos 7:7-8 Amos saw the Lord "standing on a wall." The wall is not identified, but it can be only one wall -- the wall of Israel's capital city, Samaria.

    Today Jews are looking to the time when God will be worshiped by Israel once again and Jerusalem will be the center of that worship. But just as in the days of Amos a false religion will replace the true worship. Saints that time is fast approaching

    Message: Today we look at a farmer who stands on the Word of God and who takes on a King who has replaced the word of God with a lie. It is really a David and Goliath kind of story but this farmer never throws a stone he just uses God’s word to cut this king down to size. This farmer goes to ...read more

    Israel missed each opportunity God gave them. Each time Amos interceded, God held off on afflicting them. Finally, He had enough—He afflicted them with almost complete destruction. God is faithful to respond to the intercessory prayers of His people.

    1. The first pitch was a fastball of grace. 2. The second pitch was a fastball of mercy. 3. The third pitch was a changeup of affliction.

    In order to faithfully obey God’s call to be messengers of His gospel, we need to see the obstacles that we will face. But not only do we need to see the obstacles, we need to be able to overcome them like Amos did.

A messenger of God will face sensible temptation (12-13) i. Wouldn’t it be nice to go home? ii. Eat your home cooking? iii. It’s OK to prophesy—just don’t do it ...read more

    God’s Plumb Line (His Law) isn’t dumb! It speaks to us about our sin. But we are blessed that God isn’t silent about his grace either, that reaches out to us from the cross

    Sermon 071209 Amos 7:7-15; Ephesians 1:3-14 I read a book this week that really challenged me. It was a book that speaks against all kinds of things going on in society today. I’ll list some topics, and think about what comes to your mind: Self-Righteousness, Deceit, Greed, Oppression of the ...read more

    Amos uses the Plumb Line as a metaphor to explain that both nation and the religious establishment are under judgment for being "out of line"; unrighteous.

    Paul addresses his critics directly and highlighted a few lessons. A true ministry does not draw attention to himself, commits to the work God assigns and lives for the audience of One, his Lord.

    2 Cor 10:7-18 The True Measure of a Minister 2 Cor 10:7-18 – Paul addressing his critics 7Look at what is before your eyes.

    This message is about God's standards. Everyone has standards by which they live by, but are our individual standards in line with God's standards? This message explores that question.

    What Does It Mean To Be A Man Of God?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 20, 2023
     | 1,506 views

    The people of Israel had become careless and complacent. God called a man from a small country town to prophesy judgment and preach repentance. This man submitted to God's call to go and prophesy unto Israel.

    The affluent people of Israel were enjoying their life of luxury and prosperity. They had become careless, complacent, mistreating poor people, and selling them into servitude. Before long, Israel would be vanquished by Assyria, and the rich would become slaves. Then in walks a God called man from ...read more
