The court case came to a close in chapter 6 and now it's time to see what happens. We watch as evil and suffering surround the people. It's not a good time for Jerusalem.

BUT Micah makes a statement in verse 7 that we all need to say and remember. Then in verses 8-10 he explains why he has hope.

Bryan called this an invitation for us to tell the world why we can hope in the midst of darkness.

There is so much tone and attitude in these verses. You'll miss it though if you don't understand the context of the story.

Bryan compares this chapter to the closing argument of the courtroom drama.

God is pulling in His witnesses (the mountains), and the people are using logic fallacies when they don't want answer God's questions.

Ultimately, God tells the people exactly what He expects of them, and we would do well to listen and obey as well.
