Ben King Capstone



     Amos is a book of the bible, but some people haven’t heard enough about Amos.  I interviewed three intelligent pastors from Linworth Baptist church to see what they think about the book of Amos. I have asked them four questions about the book and I have put together a great picture on the book of Amos. 


     The prophet Amos lived during a time period where there were two kingdoms in Israel, the northern tribe and the southern tribe. The Northern tribe(Israel) is prospering and relaxed and they are a superpower, but they are disobeying God's law and committing sins. God calls a shepherd named, Amos to speak against Israel. He condemns them to judgement and calls them out on there sin and states that they will be swept away by enemies and be taken away from the land that was promised to them. But at the end of the book it ends with a promise that they would be restored to there land someday and would be at peace.
