Amos 2:9-3:8

Jeff Asher discusses Amos 2:9-3:8 giving emphasis to the faithfulness of God to keep His word whether it is a promise to bless, or a promise to curse. God had kept His covenant with Israel, but they had not kept theirs with Him. God's longsuffering and patience ran out. The prophet announces Jehovah's intent, "I will punish you for your iniquities." The prophet them laments, "The Lion hath roared who will not fear?"
