The sin of Israel which profaned the name of the LORD in the time of Prophet Amos was

trampling the head of the poor into the dust Correct answer

selling of strangers for silver and gold

selling their children into slavery

turning the house of the Lord to a market place.

Answer Details

The sin of Israel that profaned the name of the LORD during the time of Prophet Amos was trampling the head of the poor into the dust. The Israelites were exploiting the poor and vulnerable in society and showing no compassion or justice towards them, which was a direct violation of God's commands. They were more interested in their own wealth and comfort than in obeying God's laws and treating their fellow human beings with dignity and respect. This sin was a major theme of Amos' prophetic message, and he warned the Israelites of the severe consequences that would result if they did not repent and turn back to God.

the people

Answer Details

In Romans, believers are taught to obey those in authority because rulers are representatives of God. According to Romans 13:1-2, "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves." This means that those in positions of authority are placed there by God, and therefore obedience to those in authority is obedience to God.
