Amos

This is a verse by verse study series on the book of Amos.

These studies look at Amos' message to Israel in the context of the Sinai Covenant with its requirement of faithfulness to God, and in the context of Israel's history with its repeated demonstration of unfaithfulness to God.We will see that though Israel was unfaithful to God and to the Covenant, God remained faithful, that even the impending judgement was an expression of his faithfulness.

These studies also raise the question: How is this relevant to Christians? Is our continuance as God's people conditional? Do we who believe in Jesus Christ stand under the same terrible threat of God's judgement? Or is there another factor in play that existed prior to the Sinai Covenant, and of which the Sinai Covenant was a servant?
