Mt. Gilead Sermon Messages – Mt Gilead FGIM
Conditions which characterized them at this time: Wealthy, enjoying great luxury Morally, religiously, and politically corrupt HIS MESSAGE... In Am 1:2, we see a vivid picture of the Lord as a lion whose roar to the north reaches all the way to Mt. Carmel This describes what God is doing through Amos, proclaiming a fiery message of condemnation and judgment against Israel and the surrounding nations "The people of Israel were now at the summit of worldly prosperity, but were rapidly filling up the measure of their sins. The mission of Amos was, therefore, rather to threaten than to console. He rebukes, among other things, the corruption of their manners, which kept pace with their prosperity; he charges the great men with partiality as judges, and violence towards the poor; and he foretells, as a punishment from God, the captivity of the ten tribes in a foreign country..." - The Bible Handbook, Angus and Green [With verse 2 as a good preview of the nature of Amos' prophecy, let's now survey the first main section of the book of Amos...] THE "ORACLES" OF SIN AND JUDGMENT UPON THE NATIONS (1:3-2:16) DAMASCUS - Am 1:3-5 SIN - cruelty toward the inhabitants of Gilead (the tribes of Gad and Reuben) JUDGMENT - destruction and captivity Hazael was the murderer of Ben-Hadad I, and usurper of his throne - 2Ki 8:7-15 Ben-Hadad II was the son of Hazel - cf. 2Ki 13:3,22-25 FULFILLMENT - by the Assyrians - cf. 2Ki 16:1-9 GAZA (PHILISTIA) - Am 1:6-8 SIN - engaging in slave traffic JUDGMENT - total devastation FULFILLMENT - by the Assyrians TYRE - Am 1:9-10 SIN - slave traffic; did not remember the covenant of "brotherhood" (between Solomon and Hiram? - cf. 1Ki 5:12) JUDGMENT - destruction FULFILLMENT - started by Nebuchadnezzar; finished by Alexander the Great EDOM - Am 1:11-12 SIN - cruelty to brethren - cf.

Og, king of Bashan3 Then we turned and we went along the road towards Bashan. Og, king of Bashan, marched out with his whole army to attack us at Edrei. 2 But the Lord said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him. I have given him to you with his whole army and his land. You must do the same thing to Og as you did to Sihon, king of the Amorites, who ruled in Heshbon.’ 3 So the Lord our God put Og, king of Bashan, under our power, as well as his whole army. We killed them all so that we left no one alive. 4 Then we took all of his cities. We took power over all the cities in the region of Argob where King Og of Bashan ruled. There were 60 cities. 5 All the cities had high walls around them, with gates that the people locked. There were also very many villages which did not have walls around them. 6 We destroyed them completely as a gift to the Lord. We had done the same thing to the cities of Sihon, king of Heshbon. We destroyed every city and we killed all the men, women and children. 7 But we kept all the animals and the valuable things from the cities for ourselves. 8 So, at that time, we took power over all the land that the two Amorite kings, Og and Bashan, had ruled. Their land was east of the Jordan River, from the Arnon valley to Mount Hermon. 9 (The people from Sidon call Mount Hermon ‘Sirion’. The Amorites call it ‘Senir’.) 10 We took all their cities in the high, flat land and cities in the whole of Gilead and in Bashan. We went as far as Salecah and Edrei, cities that belonged to the kingdom of Og in Bashan. 11 Og, king of Bashan, was the only descendant of the Rephaites who had still been alive. He had an iron bed that is still in the Ammonites' town, Rabbah. It was 4 metres long and 2 metres wide. Moses gives land to three tribes12 When we had taken power over all that land, I gave some of it to the tribes of Reuben and Gad. I gave them the land north of Aroer near the Arnon valley. I also gave them half of the hill country of Gilead and the cities there. 13 I gave the other part of Gilead to one half of the tribe of Manasseh.

A groundbreaking injectable that would curb the spread of HIV is at risk due to Donald Trump's funding cuts on foreign aid. A groundbreaking injectable designed to curb the global spread of HIV is now at risk of being delayed due to President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders.Lenacapavir, an innovative twice-yearly injection that prevents HIV transmission, was recognized as the breakthrough medicine of 2024. However, Trump’s decision to freeze all foreign aid funding now jeopardizes its global distribution to millions in need, Wired reports.Linda-Gail Bekker, 62, is a medical professor from the University of Cape Town who helped identify Lenacapavir. She attended the AIDS 2024 Conference held in Munich, Germany, last July and proudly presented the groundbreaking results of the PURPOSE 1 clinical trial she led. The study revealed that the Gilead Sciences-developed Lenacapavir could prevent sexual transmission of HIV with 100% efficacy by targeting the virus’s capsid protein, a crucial component for its replication.Unlike existing daily pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) pills, which serve a similar purpose, Lenacapavir requires just two injections per year. While not a vaccine, it represents the next best option for HIV prevention. After the prestigious journal Science recognized Lenacapavir as 2024’s “Breakthrough of the Year,” Gilead committed to producing 10 million doses by 2026—enough to treat 2.5 million people—in preparation for anticipated regulatory approval later this year.With over one million people contracting HIV each year, a partnership between The Global Fund and PEPFAR, the U.S. government’s global HIV/AIDS program, had pledged to acquire 2 million doses of Lenacapavir over three years. These doses were intended for countries with the highest HIV rates, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. However, President Donald Trump’s decision to freeze all foreign aid funding has thrown this plan into disarray.“There’s despondency and a sense of tragedy. Because just as we’ve had the breakthrough, we also see the taps turning off of resources,” Bekker said. “We had a laid-out map where the product would be supplied via PEPFAR and The Global Fund while we wait for generics [cheaper off-label versions of lenacapavir] to come online, which will take 18 months to two years.
