  • Bethel: Where The Prophet Was Told To Leave Town!

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Sep 3, 2020

    Many things happened at Bethel, including this visit from one of God's true prophets who came face to face with the priest of that city. God's prophet preached--but what happened afterwards?

    Introduction: God’s prophets seldom if ever had an easy time of it. Consider Nathan, who had the duty to inform David that what he had done with Bathsheba was sin. David was king and could have said only one word and the result would have been one less prophet! David’s own great-great-grandson Asa ...read more

    Today Jews are looking to the time when God will be worshiped by Israel once again and Jerusalem will be the center of that worship. But just as in the days of Amos a false religion will replace the true worship. Saints that time is fast approaching

    Message: Today we look at a farmer who stands on the Word of God and who takes on a King who has replaced the word of God with a lie. It is really a David and Goliath kind of story but this farmer never throws a stone he just uses God’s word to cut this king down to size. This farmer goes to ...read more

    Jesus washed his disciples' feet. What did he really want to teach his disciples about service and humility?

    [Sermon preached on 14 October 2018, Apostles' Sunday / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Last Tuesday, our Bible study group went through the three readings for today. We soon found that they have at least two things in common. For one thing, they have all been taken out of context. As you may have ...read more

    Amos sends Israel a clear message from God: you are not meeting my standards, and I am about to cut you off.

    Good morning. I am special correspondent Shinon Byorus for the Mesopotamian News Network, coming to you live from Bethel in Israel, where controversy has been stirring for months around the inflammatory rhetoric from the prophet Amos, who appeared some time ago from Judea with a very harsh message ...read more

  • Fidelity To God's Call

    When we hear the word “prophet”, we often think of someone whose primary job is to tell the future. But prophets had a much more important job: they were called to bring the hard truth to God’s people, so that they would realize their need for reconciliation with God.

    INTRODUCTION When we hear the word “prophet”, we often think of someone whose primary job is to tell the future. We might equate the term with “soothsayer”, “seer,” or even in a non-Christian context, “fortune teller”. We most often judge a prophet by whether or not their words come true. There is ...read more

  • Calling All Nobodies

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Sep 16, 2022
     | 1,804 views

    The idolatrous priest Amaziah tries to intimidate the prophet Amos. He did not appreciate Amos’ message against the king. But Amos wan't trying to be popular--God had called him out of an ordinary life of shepherding and gathering fruit. In other words, Amos was a nobody.

    This passage teaches us a valuable lesson: God calls and uses nobodies, those who are shunned by the world or overlooked. Amos, Moses, and David were just shepherds. Joseph was just a boy with a dream. Ruth was an outcast, an outsider. Esther was just a regular Jewish girl. These people were ...read more

  • What Does It Mean To Be A Man Of God?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 20, 2023
     | 824 views

    The people of Israel had become careless and complacent. God called a man from a small country town to prophesy judgment and preach repentance. This man submitted to God's call to go and prophesy unto Israel.

    The affluent people of Israel were enjoying their life of luxury and prosperity. They had become careless, complacent, mistreating poor people, and selling them into servitude. Before long, Israel would be vanquished by Assyria, and the rich would become slaves. Then in walks a God called man from ...read more
