Amos 7:1-17

Contents: Threatening judgments. The prophet's intercession no longer to prevail. Amos charged before the king and his answer.

Characters: God, Amos, Amaziah, Jeroboam.

Conclusion: God's patience, which has long been sinned against, will at length be sinned away for to be often reprieved yet never reclaimed; often reduced to straits, yet never brought to God is a great insult to God and merits His rejection. Those who have faithfully declared the counsel of God may expect to be misrepresented as enemies, and often by men in high religions standing.

Key Word: God-abandoned, Amos 7:8.
