He should immediately begin to present Amos 6. EXPLORE THE BIBLE Ask: Do you know who is being portrayed here? What’s going on? Hand out the copies of Amos 6 from The Message. Read through it together as a class. Share a mini-lecture based on the information in the Faith Story. Read Luke 11:42-52. Discuss: • One of the deadly sins Amos points out is the sin of “spiritual ingratitude.” From the text, and what you know about the story of the Israelites, what evidence proves are they guilty of this sin? • The second deadly sin on the prophet’s list is “moral corruption.” Identify some examples of this malady in the text. • Next on Amos’ list of deadly sins is “spiritual pride”. Can you figure out what he means from the text? • Which of these sins does Jesus address in the Luke passage? Divide the class into three groups and give them newsprint and markers. Group #1 will work with Amos 6:1-2, Group #2, verses 3-6, and Group #3, verses 12-14. Ask them to write a modern-day version of their verses. What might a prophet be saying to people today? What are the modern-day parallels to the situations Amos is addressing? Continued... |
