Amos 5:6-15: Summary:
Forsaking their assignment, God's people have sided with the world in perverting justice. Reminding them that He is the Creator, and that He cares about the morality of His image-bearers, and that He knows the full-measure of our sins, and that He will administer infallible justice, and that they are under His judgment, He calls on them to seek Him and live. In effect, He calls on them to love good and seek it, to hate evil and banish it. He calls on them to establish Heaven's notion of justice on earth. We will explore this with particular application to the protection of the neediest among us: children in the womb.
