Digital Verbum Edition
The Conscience of a Nation will probe your conscience. Preaching from the Book of Amos, James T. Draper, Jr., places before us the alternatives for our frenetic society. This book will disturb you, upset you, lay bare your innermost being. These twenty penetrating chapters are based on messages Draper has delivered to his congregation, the First Baptist Church of Euless, Texas. It's no wonder his church takes the urgent commission of Christ seriously. If you're reading for "the fun of it," this won't be easy reading, for here is pungent exposition of Amos's prophecy which is still relevant today as it was in the eighth century BC. If a Christian happens to "at ease in Zion" (Amos 6:2) he won't be after conscientiously reading this book, along with The Book. All prophetic preaching should lead to action, and that is exactly the intent of The Conscience of a Nation. Read The Conscious of a Nation with your Bible open to the scathing, yet redemptive, prophecy of Amos. And your heart open to God's timely truth. No longer will you be satisfied with the status quo, with merely existing "at ease in Zion."
