Amos 8:4-7 - To only way to avoid punishment is through repentance
[ 4 ] Hear this, you that trample on the needy, and bring to ruin the poor of the land, [ 5 ] saying, "When will the new moon be over so that we may sell grain; and the sabbath, so that we may offer wheat for sale? We will make the ephah small and the shekel great, and practice deceit with false balances, [ 6 ] buying the poor for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, and selling the sweepings of the wheat." [ 7 ] Yahweh has sworn by the pride of Jacob: Surely I will

Psalm 79:1-9 - Avoiding demon spirits
1 elohim , the heathen have come into your inheritance; they have profaned your holy temple; * they have made Jerusalem a heap of rubble. 2 They have given the bodies of your servants as food for the birds of the air, * and the flesh of your faithful ones to the beasts of the field. 3 They have shed their blood like water on every side of Jerusalem, * and there was no one to bury them. 4 We have become a reproach to our neighbors, * an object of scorn and derision to those ar

Jeremiah 8:18-9:1 - Made to be a daughter of Yahweh's people
[ 18 ] My joy is gone, grief is upon me, my heart is sick. [ 19 ] Hark, the cry of daughter of my poor people from far and wide in the land: "Is Yahweh not in Zion? Is her King not in her?" ("Why have they provoked me to anger with their images, with their foreign idols?") [ 20 ] "The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved."

Luke 15:1-10 - Parables about being lost and then found
[ 1 ] All the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to listen to Jesus. [ 2 ] And the Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling and saying, "This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them." [ 3 ] So he told them this parable: [ 4 ] "Which one of you, having a hundred sheep and losing one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness and go after the one that is lost until he finds it? [ 5 ] When he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders and rejoices. [ 6

1 Timothy 1:12-17 - How to find redemption
I am grateful to Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because he judged me faithful and appointed me to his service, even though I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and a man of violence. But I received mercy because I had acted ignorantly in unbelief, and the grace of our Lord overflowed for me with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. The saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners-- of whom I

Your people, whom you brought up out of the land of Egypt, [ 8 ] have acted perversely; they have been quick to turn aside from the way that I commanded them; they have cast for themselves an image of a calf, and have worshiped it and sacrificed to it, and said, `These are eloheka , O Israel, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt!'"

Homily for the thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost Year C – Giving it all up to walk behind Jesus
Good morning bus riders! Welcome to the thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost. Today we are continuing to find lessons presented that speak of the duality. This is the choice that must be made to gain Salvation. The duality that I see is that between belief and faith; and, there is a duality in each of those positions towards religion. It can be commonly heard (by Baptist ministers) that the Rapture is coming; and, the impression is given that a select group of Christians will
