Do Justice, Love Mercy, Walk Humbly - Part 5

We have been working our way steadily through the book of Micah and we’ve come to the penultimate chapter this evening. Micah really has been alternating back and forth between an oracle of judgment and rebuke on the people of Israel, the northern kingdom, the people of Judah, the southern kingdom, alternating back and forth between that an a promise of coming blessing in the age of Messiah - the age in which we now live, the age of the Lord Jesus Christ. And today in Micah chapter 6, he alternates back as it were to focus once again on the judgment of God on the sin of His people. In particular, the dominant motif in the chapter is that of the courtroom God is prosecuting His lawsuit against His wayward people.
