"Hollow are the words coming from churches in America. Pathetic attempts to worship I do not hear. Sin has reached the throne room of God -

 Justice cries in the street, but no one hears. My people are perishing for lack of knowledge."

"I hate, I despise your feasts, and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies. Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the peace offerings of your fattened animals, I will not look upon them. Take away from Me the noise of your songs; to the melody of your harps I will not listen. But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream." Amos 5:21-24

"Thus says the LORD: "Keep justice, and do righteousness, for soon my salvation will come, and my deliverance be revealed." Isaiah 56:1

"Therefore justice is far from us, and righteousness does not overtake us; we hope for light, and behold, darkness, and for brightness, but we walk in gloom. Justice is turned back, and righteousness stands far away; for truth has stumbled in the public squares, and uprightness cannot enter". Isaiah 59:9, 14
