Pastor Marshall Ochs | May 18, 2025
In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from Amos 3-4. These chapters reveal God’s judgment against Israel’s hypocrisy—highlighting their injustice, abuse, and hollow religious rituals. Through cause-and-effect imagery, Amos shows that closeness to God brings not only privilege but also greater accountability; rebellion leads to societal collapse, and even sacred places are torn down when true worship is replaced with shallow performance. Despite dire warnings, God pleads through Amos for repentance, urging both ancient Israel and modern believers to awaken, seek revival, and live with integrity before God.
