“Can two walk together, except they be agreed?” Amos 3:3
This is a great memory verse, yet one that is regularly ignored by young people charging into bad marriages, by Christians joining up with apostate churches, an with business people entering into bad partnerships.
“Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every morning, and your tithes after three years:” Amos 4:4
This verse offers a little glimpse into the character of God by showing us something that most Christians choose to ignore: God is sometimes sarcastic. Obviously, it isn’t God’s will for anyone to transgress, yet He invites them to do so in this verse.
“Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:” Amos 8:11
That’s the kind of famine that is sweeping America these days. This country has had its opportunity to receive the truth yet is has chosen to use its liberty to live in pleasure. So God is sending a spiritual famine where churches are more into building programs and entertainment than they are in the word of God. People have been so spoiled by this apostasy that write off all Bible believing churches as cults and avoid them like the plague.
