Amos - Session 4 - Hope in God
Nov 6, 2022 • Andrew Calamaro
The prophet reminded the people of his day that God offers hope to those who return to Him in repentance.
The best hopes are not passive. A football team can hope to win, but those hopes must be accompanied by action. The team would be foolish to sit on the couch all week and somehow hope to win the game. A future college graduate cannot start studying the night before graduation. Four years of action must accompany those hopes. Amos earlier had expressed the hope that God would save a remnant from Israel (Amos 5:15), but that hope was to be accompanied by the repentance of Israelites.
We will look at the hope found in Jesus today.
