Amos: Seek God & Live. Amos 6. WOE!

Read Amos 6

  • What stands out to you in this passage?

In verses 4-6, Amos gives some examples of how God’s people were living. Taken together, these convey a sense of luxury and ease, which Amos is prophesying against.

  • How could you rewrite this list with examples from contemporary Western culture?

The list is framed by verse 1, and the second half of verse 6 through to verse 8.

  • What do these verses have in common? What is the key sin that Israel is committing?

Verses 12 and 13 also show us the key concerns of this chapter.

  • What is going on here?
  • Why do you think God is responding so aggressively? Why are these things such a big deal to him?
  • What do you sense God might be saying to you today?
  • What are you going to do about it?
