Famine of The Last Days - Hearing The Word of God
Amos 8:11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will
send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread,
nor a thirst
for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord

because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee,

the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

know we that we are in him.
James 1:5 If any of you
lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to
all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it
shall be given him.

Colossians
2:1 For I would that ye knew what great conflict I have for you, and for
them at Laodicea, and for as many as have not seen my face in the flesh;

This is to do what's rights
2 That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and
unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the
acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
-
This is to know God's Plan
3 In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
-
The elect are expected to seek out God's word, His
knowledge, Wisdom and Understanding.
4 And this I say, lest any man should beguile you with enticing words.

fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled
Eve through his subtilty, so your
minds should
be corrupted from the simplicity that is in
Christ.

whom we have not preached, or if ye receive
another spirit, which ye have not received, or
another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye
might well bear with him.
Isaiah 29:13 Wherefore the Lord said, Forasmuch as this people draw near me
with
their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their
heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of
men:
-
They flatter God with their words, but their
hearts and minds are far from Him.
-
The way they are to reverence God is falsely
taught by the traditions of men.
-
They have gone off from Me

Matthew 15:7 Ye hypocrites, well did Esaias
(Isaiah) prophesy of you, saying,

9 But in vain they do worship me, teaching for
doctrines the commandments of men.
-
Mark 7:6 He answered and said unto them, Well
hath Esaias (Isaiah) prophesied of you
hypocrites, as it is written, This people
honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is

people, even a marvellous work and a wonder: for the wisdom of their
wise men shall perish, and the understanding of their prudent men shall
be hid.
-
God sees and knows what they are doing.

their works are in the dark, and they say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth
us?
-
Their works are in darkness
-
They say, Who seeth us? and who knoweth us?
-
These are the appointments ones in office
16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the
potter's clay: for shall the work say of him that made it, He made me
not? or shall the thing framed say of him that framed it, He had no
understanding?
Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
Matthew 23:29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the
righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have
been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that
ye are the children of them which killed the
prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye
escape the damnation of hell?

among the heathens (like lost sheep)
