     | 2,155 views

    Well, 500 years before Christ, Amos was sent to Israelites to warn their complacency (Amos 4:1-5 / 6:1-6) not to condemn but to point their way forward. They had their law, teachers, and religious leaders, but not God because they were following their own self-absorbed life. Due to the complacent ...read more
