66.6640. Your future lies in 6640. Sixty-six books by 40 authors, and yet we now discover it's an integrated message system from outside our time domain.

Welcome to 6640, the ministry outreach of Koinania House and Koinnea Institute.

Today's Bible teacher is Chuck Misler, connecting the Bible to your life and the world around you.

In today's study, Chuck continues his teaching on the book of Amos, chapter 2, verse 6 through chapter 4.

Music 6 through chapter 4. When there's a preacher of the gospel of Christ in a pulpit, not preaching the gospel

of Christ, he's watering down the message, doing the same thing that compromised

the Nazarites are.

As a result, the message was confused, and the command is to be silent.

Now, Amos experienced this very thing when we get to chapter 7, we'll talk more about that.

And that's why there will be a famine, not a food or wheat or whatever of the Word of God.

You and I can't imagine a famine of the Word of God.

But you have it in a sense, in effect, in America.

The Word of God is more available today to the average person on the planet Earth

than it ever has been on the planet Earth in the history of mankind.

You can carry a half a dozen Bibles in your phone to read when you like.

You can have the Greek or the Greek or the Hebrew translated for you while a computer and that's free of charge. And we would go on and on and on.

And yet, the biblical illiteracy in the pulpits today's probably the worst in our history.

In the revolutionary days, the average person on the street knew something about their Bible.

It's astonishing to compare the literature of that period with the awareness today.

Many of the pamphlets that were given out on the street, the FEDAuleous Papers, are something you read in graduate school.

Maybe not in college, maybe, but certainly graduate school.

I mean, it's amazing to understand that.
