TRANSCRIPT
"You only have I known of all the
families of the earth; therefore I
will punish you for all your
iniquities.
"You only have I known of all the families of
the earth...”
Known
hebrew YADA = relationship
Now Adam knew Eve his wife, and she
conceived and bore Cain, saying, "I have
gotten a man with the help of the LORD."
YADA IN JUDGMENT DAY
On that day many will say to me, 'Lord,
Lord, did we not prophesy in your name,
and cast out demons in your name, and
do many mighty works in your name?‘
And then will I declare to them, 'I never
knew you; depart from me, you workers
of lawlessness.'
“therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
Hebrew - pa ̂qad
To visit (with friendly or hostile intent)
The Seven Questions
Amos chapter 3 verses 1-6 shows God
asking a COMPLETE QUESTION
on Israel
“Can two walk together unless they are
agreed?”
The Authority of the Prophet
"For the Lord GOD does nothing without
revealing his secret to his servants the
prophets.
THE DIFFERENCE OF OLD TESTAMENT
PROPHETS & 5 FOLD MINISTRY PROPHETS
O.T PROPHET
Functions on a HIGHER ANOINTING because
what they Prophesy will be written in the
Bible as part of the foundation of the Word
of God. Therefore NO ERROR ON
UTTERANCE
built on the foundation of the apostles and
prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the
cornerstone,
WORD OF GOD
Prophets Apostles
NEW TESTAMENTPROPHETS
And he gave the apostles, the prophets,
the evangelists, the shepherds and
teachers,
to equip the saints for the work of
ministry, for building up the body of
Christ,
5 FOLD – PROPHETS ANOINTING
will function to equip the saints for
ministry and
NOT WRITE ANOTHER BIBLE, THEREFORE
PROPHECIES ARE SUBJECT UNDER THE
WORD OF GOD
BE CAREFUL TO PROPHESY
SPIRIT OF PROPHECY
GIFT OF PROPHECYOFFICE OF THE PROPHET
ASSYRIANS AS ADVERSARY
Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "An
adversary shall surround the land and bring
down your defenses from you, and your
strongholds shall be plundered."
Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary
the devil prowls around like a roaring lion,
seeking someone to devour.
When sin is present, adversary comes
in.
COWS IN BASHAN
Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, who are
on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the
poor, who crush the needy, who say to your
husbands, 'Bring, that we may drink!'
The Pampered Ladies of Samaria speaks
proud and treats harsh.
Assyrians fishhooks
Assyrians fishhooks
The Lord GOD has sworn by His holiness
that, behold, the days are coming upon you,
when they shall take you away with hooks,
even the last of you with fishhooks.
SANCTIFIED LIPS
Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned
with salt, so that you may know how you
ought to answer each person.
GOD’S WAY OFSHOWING THINGS
In Amos 4:6-11 we see five things God
allowed to happen to bring them to
repentance
–Famine - Am 4:6 “ lack of bread”
–Drought - Am 4:7-8 “no rain”
–Pestilence - Am 4:9 “locust”
–Plague and war - Am 4:10 “plague like
Egypt”
–Volcanic eruption - Am 4:11 “burning”
“Prepare to meet your God”
An Accountability meeting
"Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;
because I will do this to you, prepare to meet
your God, O Israel!"
GOD LAMENTS FOR ISRAEL
1 Hear this word that I take up over you in
lamentation, O house of Israel:
2 "Fallen, no more to rise, is the virgin
Israel; forsaken on her land, with none to
raise her up."
GOD LOVES ISRAEL ,
AND
GOD WILL RESTORE ISRAEL
SEEK GODGOD’S WAY
4 For thus says the LORD to the house of
Israel: "Seek me and live;
5 but do not seek Bethel, and do not enter
into Gilgal or cross over to Beersheba; for
Gilgal shall surely go into exile, and Bethel
shall come to nothing."
PAUL IN ATHENS
16 Now while Paul was waiting for
them at Athens, his spirit was provoked
within him as he saw that the city was
full of idols.
.
24 The God who made the world and
everything in it, being Lord of heaven
and earth, does not live in temples made
by man, .
25 nor is He served by human hands, as
though he needed anything, since He
himself gives to all mankind life and
breath and everything.
THE DAY OF THE LORD
18 Woe to you who desire the day of the
LORD! Why would you have the day of the
LORD? It is darkness, and not light,
19 as if a man fled from a lion, and a
bear met him, or went into the house and
leaned his hand against the wall, and a
serpent bit him.
Speaks of Israel’s progressive
destruction
BEFORE THE DAY OF THE LORD
ENGLAND – COLONIAL SYSTEM RUSSIA – COMMUNIST SYSTEM
ANTI-CHRIST – NEW WORLD ORDER
DEMONIC SOUND OF WORSHIP
23 Take away from me the noise of your
songs; to the melody of your harps I will
not listen.
5 who sing idle songs to the sound of
the harp and like David invent for
themselves instruments of music,
PAGANWORSHIP
26 You shall take up Sikkuth your king,
and Kiyyun your star-god—your images
that you made for yourselves,
4 For thus says the LORD to the house of
Israel: "Seek me and live;
People today are seeking power, wealth, fame
and many other things but they are NOT
SEEKING GOD.
Seeing Jesus in the
lives of People
3 He was despised and rejected by men;
a man of sorrows, and acquainted with
grief; and as one from whom men hide
their faces He was despised, and we
esteemed Him not.
4 Surely He has borne our griefs and
carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed
Him stricken, smitten by God, and
afflicted.
