Book of Amos
Amos came to the Northern kingdom. The people were religious but superficial. Amos announces that the neighboring kingdoms will be punished. These wicked nations include Damascus, Gaza, Edom, and Tyre. Amos warns Isreael will be destroyed. He tells them about judgement. Amos announces Gods judgement to the Northern Kingdom and says "the day of the Lord" which reff to go God intervening to judge the wicked city. Lastly Amos talks about the restoration and hope of Israel.
In the book of Amos the people in the Northern kingdom sined many times. We are all sinner like the northern kingdom, but we can all get forgiveness an redeem ourselves just like the Northern Kingdom. In all the books of the bible they have a chance for redemption. Unfortunately in some of the books in the bible they did not always accept the chances layed out for them. Unlike them we need to embrace God and seek redemption.
