God warns the people not to go to Bethel, or to Gilgal or Beersheba! Why not? Those places had been key places in their spiritual history, places where their heroes had personal encounters with the living God. They had been key places but in Amos' time, they had been corrupted into places of idolatry. When corruption is that deep and widespread, it can be tempting to just retreat into silence, but God offers a different direction for us all to follow.
