The message of Amos is pre-eminately a message of a new life. The message, however comes in the context of a nation under judgment. Israel hid the emptiness and godlessness of a corrupt society behind an apathetic and norminal outward religion, like so many today. God's view of our society is revealed in Amos in no certain terms. While no refuge is offered for those who reject or disgard God's will, shining through the gloom most brightly is the precious gift of new life through faith in God's Saviour, his Son Jesus Christ.
