Here comes the opposition from Amaziah, who's the chief priest in the area. Amaziah sends a nastygram to Amos, basically getting right in his face and telling him, "Get out of here. Stop preaching in Bethel and go back to where you came from." And Amos, he ain't no punk Christian, so he is not going to back down. If you've been walking with the word long enough, you know exactly what to do. To the world, Amaziah may seem like a boss, but for the rest of us who know the truth, we know this dude is a joker. He is not a real priest. He is not even in charge. He is not in communication with God, and therefore his power is limited. Amos is the real deal, though. So, he puts 10 toes down, reaches in his pocket, and pulls out the only weapon that really holds damage, the word of the Lord. And he says, "Actually, bro, your wife is going to be a prostitute, your land is going to be taken from you, and you yourself are going to die."
