The Word of the LORD Came - Lesson 5 | LifeJourney

God is just — and the book of Amos makes that unmistakably clear. But did you know Amos also closes with one of the most stunning promises of hope in all the Minor Prophets? In this episode, Rob Pine digs into Amos 9:11–12 and why James — standing before the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 — turned to this very passage to settle one of the most consequential debates in the early church: must Gentiles be circumcised and keep the Law of Moses to belong to God's people? We'll trace God's ancient covenant with David through 2 Samuel 7:16, unpack what "David's fallen shelter" really means, and discover how the inclusion of Gentiles into God's kingdom wasn't a plan B — it was always the promise. And we'll close with Amos 9:13–15 and a question worth sitting with: are you waiting for that glorious day? This is Lesson 5 in the series The Word of the Lord Came: Major Prophecies of the Minor Prophets, companion to the study guide available on Amazon.
