11 - The Causes and the Violations of the Law – Part 3 [B]

What does Amos 6 teach us about the dangers of arrogance and prosperity? Israel's leaders were living in luxury, trusting in their wealth, military strength, and political influence rather than in God. They had become self-absorbed, indifferent to injustice, and convinced that divine judgment was far off. But God reminds them of once-great cities that had fallen and warns that their own destruction and captivity are certain. This lesson examines how arrogance leads to self-deception, why prosperity can be a greater test than adversity, and how God's righteous judgment follows generations of gracious warnings to seek Him and live.
