Autopsy of a Dead Faith - The Book of Amos, Week 6

As the Great Physician speaks through Amos & with His scalpel peels back all the layers of façade and autopsies Israel's faith, we find not a vibrant, growing relationship but a DEAD faith - the cause of death being a triad of deadly sins (Material Luxury, Religious Hypocrisy, Unrepentant Obstinacy).  We find at the end of the autopsy a dire warning to prepare to meet thy God, O Israel signed by the highest credentials in the land - those of YHWH, Creator & Judge.  As we hear through Amos what the Spirit says to the churches may we allow the Great Physician to autopsy our own faith that we may be pleasing & acceptable before Him and prepared ourselves to one day meet our God face to face!!!
