Scriptures:
Amos 5:21-27
“I hate, I
despise your religious feasts; I cannot stand your assemblies. Even though you
bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them. Though
you bring choice fellowship offerings, I will have no regard for them. Away
with the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps. But
let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!
“Did
you bring me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the desert, O house of
Israel You have lifted up the shrine of your king, the pedestal of your idols,
the star of your god— which you made for yourselves. Therefore I will send you
into exile beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose name is God Almighty.
Isaiah 1:24
“Therefore the Lord, the LORD Almighty, the Mighty One
of Israel, declares: “Ah, I will get relief from my foes and avenge myself on
my enemies….”
Isaiah 20:2
...at that time the LORD spoke through Isaiah son of Amoz. He said to him, “Take off the sackcloth from your body and the sandals from your feet.” And he did so, going around stripped and barefoot.
Jeremiah 20:7.8
“...ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me. 8 Whenever I speak, I cry out proclaiming violence and destruction. So the word of the LORD has brought me insult and reproach all day long.”
James 1:27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and
faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to
keep oneself from being polluted by the world
