Surprise of the Day

God has always expected pagan nations to follow him

Amos 1:3, 6, 9 & 11  –  Amos 2:1

Fact  of the Day

God has always expected pagan nations to follow him, including the Syrians (1:3) the Philistines of Gaza (1:6), the Lebanese (1: 9) the Arabians, (v1:11 ) the Jordanians (1: 13 and 2:1).

• During the 2000 years the Jews were in their Promised Land, nearly all of the surrounding nations were descendants of Abraham (Genesis).  The rest were descendants of Noah through a different branch.
• Pagans automatically know God exists and what good is (Romans 1)
