01 - Joel–“Day of the Lord” [B]

When was the book of the prophet Joel written? Listen to this message to learn that no one is certain of the exact period and there are many views whether it was in the pre-exilic, exilic, or post-exilic period. Begin a study of chapter one of Joel which includes a devastating account of a severe historically based event and involves a comparison of locusts with the people of Israel. Find out many interpretations of the term "Day of the Lord" and see that while the context determines the meaning, all include a time of judgment from God. Remember that God is also involved in the affairs of our lives in the Church Age.
