establish judg ment in the gate amos b 15 jjessoif passage amos 1 101 2134 we live by faith but faith is not the of text and legend reasons voice and gods nature s and dutys never are at odds what asks our father of his children save justice mercy and humility a reasonable service of good deeds pure living tenderness to human needs reverence and trust and prayer for light to see the masters footprints in our daily whjs john greeleaf whittter a rustic prophet 1 because of the brevity of hts writ lugs amos is called a minor prophet but in moral force he was a majr spokesman he is the earliest of the group of writing prophets o whom he belonged a rustic man who cared for his vines and herds when he went to visit cities he was appalled at con ditions with his rural background he was convinced that the people of cities were worldly and pleasurerlov ing amos was no official prophet authorized by ordination or holding a certificate from the school of the prophets he spoke for himself and on his own he made a plea for so clal justice his work is still being done in modern days by w riters in newspapers by research men in labor etories by men of vision in politics and by prophetic souls hi pulpits many women s organizations are seek ing to redtess evils which were a bur den upon the soul of amos there is a constant need for prophets economic oppression 10 13 amos rebelled against official con sorshlp his plain spenklng made him unpopular especially with those whose gains were in danger he condemn ed the rulers who exacted taxes of wheat from the poor he felt there was something wrong in certain fami lies having large houses and luxurl ous living whjle others lacked shel ter and went hungry he exposed the injustice of the rich bribing judges while the poor received severe sen tences amos was certain that nation al strength was endangered by dlvld ing the nation into upper and lower classes the haves and the have xlo s e saw plainly thai silence would be prudent that speaking the truth fearlessly would endanger his life yet he could not keep silent in the presence of social injus ice he knew that the urge to speak ce from god the beloved community 14 15 the sense of community is one of thp great experiences of life we find it in the family in the school in the city and nation and more and more there is developing a sense of international fellowship and world citizenship it is not a matter of sentiment or theory alone it has to do with the practical problems of raw materials natural resources money spent for armaments health policies exchange of scientific discoveries and security through plenty if the strife between nances is to cease such mat ters as tariffs currency and exchange rates will have to be adjusted on a world wide scale it was the settled conviction of amos that as soon as human relationships could be set right gods favour would be granted his reasoning was sound selfishness sus picfon greed and hate lead to wax few canadian realize the full value of the security resulting from the good will between the united states and canada rehfion and conduct 21 23 one of he baffling enigmas to amos was that the men guilty of social injustice were outwardly religious they enjoyed worship but they felt do conviction of sin concerning their acquisitiveness they offered external sacrifices and ceremonies but they ac cepted no responsibility for the wei fare of the illiterate and impoverished certain modem nations stand out for their skill in music yet are calloused in the destruction of individuals and certain racial or economic groups christ completed the teaching of amoh requiring character and conduct as the expression of the inwardness of rell irion the men who were responsible for the crucifixion of jesus were de toted pharisees punctilious in their religious rites they were scrupulous about tithing but failed to live in the spirit of love and brotherhood the demand for justice 24 amos had stood at the side of a liver and listened jo the roar of the waters rushing down he compared ttwiflv jintle ft the n ff a mighty stream what would social justice mean in canada in the year 140 would it not mean a more determin ed effort to midge the gap between passengers riding in chair can and hoboes riding the rods would it not mean the lessening of the contrast between the mansions in residential districts and the crowded slum of the poor would it not mean a readjust ment of the returns of labour to the producer and the price of commodl ties to the consumer the strong soul of amos would never bej satisfied with words and idealis poetry about fan- inan brotherhood he would demand that action te taken regarding taxes sweated labour unemployment price political corruption graft in public
