Amos 5:4-6 - This is what the LORD says to Israel: “Seek me and live; do not seek Bethel, do not go to Gilgal, do not journey to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will be reduced to nothing.” Seek the LORD and live, or he will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire; it will devour them, and Bethel will have no one to quench it.
Hosea 4:15 - “Though you, Israel, commit adultery, do not let Judah become guilty. “Do not go to Gilgal; do not go up to Beth Aven. And do not swear, ‘As surely as the LORD lives!’
Zephaniah 2:3 - Seek the LORD, all you humble of the land, you who do what he commands. Seek righteousness, seek humility; perhaps you will be sheltered on the day of the LORD’s anger.
Leviticus 18:5 - Keep my decrees and laws, for the person who obeys them will live by them. I am the LORD.
Application:
· Do I use oaths deceitfully, as though I am truly honoring the Lord?
· Have I abandoned the arrogance of my idolatry and wickedness? Have I humbled myself in repentance before God?
· Is the law a way of life for me? It is not a way of salvation!!!
