Exploring the Meaning of Amos 3
Ngu Helen Kennedy
A church cannot serve two masters. It cannot peacefully coexist with truths and falsities. To want to live with both and to seek a compromise will cause the church to be laid to waste. The church will perish, and the goods and truths of the Word will be taken away from it.
Matthew 20:25-28
25
But Jesus summoned them, and said, "You know that the rulers of the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
26
It shall not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.
27
Whoever desires to be first among you shall be your bondservant,
28
even as the Son of Man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."
