LIGHT RELIGION THAT CANNOT SAVE

LIGHT RELIGION THAT CANNOT SAVE
Jesse M. Hendley
Amos 6:13

If you have your Bibles I would like for you to turn
with me to Amos, chapter 6. This chapter begins with a
tremendous statement: "Woe to them that are AT EASE in
Zion and TRUST in the mountain of Samaria." Then in
verse 13, "Ye which REJOICE in a thing of nought,"
referring to idols. "Ye which rejoice in NOTHING."

So we have here the statements EASE, and TRUST, and
REJOICING. Here is a group of people AT EASE, and

are saved. There are people "at ease" and on the road
TO HELL! There are people on the other hand, thank
God, who are "at ease" because they know Jesus Christ
as their Saviour and Lord.

AT EASE

"Woe unto them that are at ease in Zion and trust in
the mountain of Samaria!" What is the trouble? SIN.
God Almighty speaks in verses 46 about the SINS of the
people. "They that lie upon beds of ivory and stretch
themselves upon their couches." That word in the
original Hebrew me ...
