Joel McCarty • The message of Amos is rejected by the people of Israel, but Amos still continues to speak truth. Because ultimately, Amos knows that what He speaks is God's truth, not his own. And because of Israel's rejection of this message, Amos prophesies that they will be sent off into exile. But there is One coming who will cross heaven and earth to win His people back and bring them into covenant union once again.
