I Amos might well be caHed a "thundering" ; prophet. He spoke with force,- and with conviction.. He .- warned the people that God . saw into their hearts, land they would be judged by what He saw there. The Day of Judgment could be light-but it : could also be dark.' . It all .de pended on the individual Israel had strayed sadly ,from the path. God hqd lid for them when he made Moses their leader. . Their attention and devotion had been scattered, fanned by the superstitious practices of their-v times. :. Idolatry.; had onc i again reared it$ ,Ug,lJ head.

Our false gods are just a little different. In stead of the gods of fertil ity, of rich harvests, of wine, We ; have the. false gods among us of money, of sta tus, of self-seeking. Yet we; like the children of Israeli the- chosen people rational ize the same faults in our selves 1 that, we are- s( quick to Criticize 'in othew.-- 'i.

And . if we v re spond, we must do sd whole heartedly. .- Amos preached that tf seek God was not enough- the manner of one's life; as one sought; was also , im portant. It would .s do ,' no good, said Amos, for a man to seek God if he worshiped the Father consciously, yet unconsciously paid homage to something less than Godj his worship would still ,'be unacceptable. For a man to offer worship to God with out being just to his fellow men was to offer an insult to God, cried Amos. , ; ; ' If . Amos were to come among us on this earth to day, would he find that we are so very different from his contemporaries all those thousands of years ago?" How many would he find among us worshipping without the essence of worship within us the motivation to give our lives to the furthering of His will? How can we become more pleasing ' to 'the Heavenly Father? The answer lies in many things.1 We please him by truly worshipping him, whether it be" in the church of our choice, the, home, the highways and byways of this wonderful world He has cre ated for us. We please Him when we demonstrate jus tice in all the realms of our existence when we become concerned in brotherly love jjor our neighbor.
