In this lesson on Amos 7–9, Stephen Davey explains that God’s justice and mercy are perfectly balanced, not opposed. Through a series of visions, God reveals His coming judgment on Israel for persistent sin, showing that His holiness demands accountability. Yet these same visions also reveal His mercy, as He delays judgment in response to intercession and preserves a faithful remnant. Even in the certainty of discipline, God offers hope through the promise of future restoration and the coming reign of the Messiah. Davey emphasizes that while God’s justice is real and unavoidable for unrepentant sin, His mercy invites repentance, offering forgiveness and hope to all who turn to Him.
