Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Apr 15, 2021

In Amos' time, justice and righteousness no longer prevailed in Israel; but rather, it had become wormwood. Wormwood is toxic, so Israel was dealing with a toxic justice system - but God was going to bring justice!

I read some Christian articles that predicted the year 2020 to be “the year of justice,” but I doubt anyone who made these ...read more
