In Amos the Lord gives us the image of a divine plumb-line against which all of our life is measured. It shows us when we go off course and lean away from the truth.

When Amos spoke of these things he faced opposition and today when we speak the truth we face the same kind of undermining tactics he did - so we must learn from them.
