How Can Two Walk In Agreement
Have you ever quoted someone who quoted the verse „Two can walk together if they disagree“? I have heard it many times. Normally, people mean that we can`t work together if we don`t agree on a number of things. Suppose you are a amillennialist and I am a postal nationalist. Or, better yet, let`s say you`re a Baptist and I`m a Presbyterian. We cannot work together if we do not elaborate this disagreement in one way or another. Either you have to change your mind, or I have to change mine, or we have to find a third solution. Well, I`m definitely not going to change mine! But if we cannot reach an agreement, we will not be able to cooperate. We must separate; I will follow my path, and you will leave yours. The church is not big enough for both of us. One of us has to leave or be deported. Maybe one of us needs to found a new church, or even a new denomination.
We cannot even speak in each other`s churches; So, goodbye. After seven years of marriage, the Bible verse of Amos 3:3 „How can two walk together if they are not agreed?“ rings truer than ever. Who would want to live miserably together? And a marriage in which two go separately is not a marriage, as God had intended. Do two men go together, unless they have made an appointment? (Amos 3:3 NASB) 3-6. Here are several parabolic questions to awaken conviction in man. Can two walk together, unless they are agreed ?–In any case, God`s prophets prophesy so unanimously against you if god`s Spirit was not bound to them or if their prophecies were false? The Israelites felt „comfortable“ and did not believe that God was with the prophets in their denunciations of the coming fall of the nation (Amos 6:1 Amos 6:3; cf. 1 Kings 22:18 1 Kings 22:24 1 Kings 22:27, Jeremiah 43:2). This corresponds to Amos 3:7 Amos 3:8. „I shall be with thy mouth“ (Exodus 4:12, Jeremiah 1:8, Matthew 10:20). If the prophets and God did not agree, the former would not be able to predict the future as they do. In Amos 2:12 he had said that the Israelites forbade prophets who prophesied; That is why he affirms in Amos 3:3 Amos 3:8 the concordance between the prophets and God, who spoke of them against Israel [ROSENMULLER].
On the contrary, „I have gone with you“ (Leviticus 26:12) as father and husband (Isaiah 54:5, Jeremiah 3:14). But now your path and my path are completely different; There can therefore be no communion between us as it existed (Amos 3,2); I will go with you just to „punish“ you; as a „lion“ walks with its „prey“ (Amos 3,4), as a bird catcher with a bird [TARNOVIUS]. Prophets and all of God`s servants cannot have fellowship with the wicked (Psalm 119,63, 2 Corinthians 6,16 2 Corinthians 6:17, Ephesians 5,11, 4,4). Amos 3:3 (ASV) Will two go together if they haven`t agreed? Let`s first look at this passage: „Can we leave two together if they are not agreed?“ You know where it comes from? It comes from the prophecy of Amos, 3:3. Part of the problem is translation. The VIN is better here, I think.. .
