THE ARGVMENT.
Among many other Prophets that God raised vp to admonish the Israelites of his plagues for their
wickednes and idolatrie, he stirred vp Amos, who was an heardman or shepheard of a poore towne,
and gaue him both knowledge and constancie to reproue all estates and degrees, and to denounce Gods
horrible iudgements against them, except they did in time repent: shewing them, that if God spare not
the other nations about them, who had liued as it were in ignorance of God in respect of them, but for
their sinnes wil punish them, that they could looke for nothing, but an horrible destruction, except they
turned to the Lord by vnfained repentance. And finally, he comforteth the godly with hope of the c&obar;ming
of the Messiah, by whom they should haue perfite deliuerance and saluation.
