He was a God-endued, bombastic, justice warrior, decrying injustice to the poor, eight centuries before Christ. With blistering rhetoric, Amos strips the veneer off religious activity and those playing at faith who exploited humanity for personal gain. This prophet declared in-your-face consequences for social sins practiced by all mankind. \u003cstrong\u003eAmos confronts racial hatred, slavery, wealth inequality, indignant bullying, judicial injustice, and social prejudice.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA study through Amos communicates God's view and cure for social injustice.
