Amos 1-5

Common Theme

God pronounces judgment on the surrounding nations and Israel for their injustice, oppression, and empty religious rituals. He demands true righteousness and justice rather than outward religious performances.

Questions

• In what ways might we be offering God empty worship while neglecting justice and righteousness?
• How does God’s hatred of injustice shape how we should view our own treatment of others?

God Shot

God reveals Himself as a righteous judge who cannot tolerate hypocrisy or oppression. He desires justice to “roll on like a river” and righteousness like a never-failing stream, showing His deep love for moral integrity and compassion.
