Smoke From The Pit Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Oct 9, 2015

Amazing comparison between Joel 2:1-11 and Revelation 9:1-12

Locusts in Prophecy. Revelation 9. It is not an easy thing to drop down suddenly into the Book of revelation and start talking about an event John is experiencing, but we must try. So far in the book, Jesus has revealed His person to John, and His warnings to seven churches that existed in the ...read more

Third Sunday Of Advent, Year C: Advent Joy On Gaudete Sunday

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 21, 2024

How many admonishing or warning songs or hymns can you find?

Today the Church takes a break from the penitential color violet (often referred to as purple) which symbolizes penance particularly because Pilate dressed Jesus in a purple robe to mock his kingship. Today, however, is Gaudete Sunday and the color is Rose (often referred to as pink) as we ...read more

The Day Of The Lord

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Jul 4, 2021

The major theme of Joel is “Day of the Lord,” and how great and terrible it will be. But this theme is not exclusive to Joel, but it is seen throughout both the major and minor prophets, as well as in the New Testament. And we’ll see all of this in our time together.

The Day of the Lord Book of Joel Watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85J-EKFl5n8 Today we are once again in the minor prophets looking at the major themes that comes from each one.

Joel. God Wants To Give His Mercy And Grace, And To Pour Out His Love On All People. Series

Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Nov 15, 2025

Nothing like a plague of Biblical proportions to give a nation a bit of a hurry up about returning to God. In Joel's day it was locusts, they had eaten all there was and it was a heads up that; The Day of The Lord was coming. That, and you can't eat what doesn't exist.

Joel. God wants to give his mercy and grace, and to pour out his love on all people. The book of Joel, the third of our minor prophets is a short read. This book of three chapters, is about God confronting and defeating evil. The name Joel while being a short name contains a lot of meaning; ...read more

It's Not About The Locusts

Contributed by Steven Taylor on Nov 21, 2006

The prophet Joel used locusts to illustrate that the people needed to repent...but it’s not about the locusts.

1) INTRODUCTION a) When I was a young child, my grandparents had a farm in central NY. This farm was way up on a hill and even though my grandfather didn’t do a whole lot of farming, I remember that the fields at the farm seemed endless in the scope of my childhood world. b) The high grass that ...read more

A Note Of Praise

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Sep 21, 2019

An apt overture to the crescendo of Praise with which the Psalter ends!

A NOTE OF PRAISE. Psalm 145:1-5; Psalm 145:17-21. A lone voice opens the Psalm: “I” will extol thee; “I” will bless (Psalm 145:1); “I” will bless; “I” will praise (Psalm 145:2). ‘Generations’ shall praise and declare (Psalm 145:4); “I” will speak and declare (Psalm 145:5-6).

The futility of contemplating a life without God.

A JOURNEY BACK TO FAITH. Ecclesiastes 1:2, Ecclesiastes 1:12-14, Ecclesiastes 2:18-23. The harder we try to understand the book of Ecclesiastes, the greater the temptation to chime in with the author’s refrain: “all is vanity!” Yet, somewhere along the way, we might realise that it is going ...read more

A Strange Land.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 18, 2022

Strangers and pilgrims in this world.

A STRANGE LAND. Psalm 137. The exile is over (at least for those who chose to return), and Babylon as a world power has fizzled out: her nobles sailed downstream to safety, and the Persian conqueror Cyrus allowed the many misplaced peoples dwelling in Babylon to return to their own lands. ...read more

A Common Call

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Jan 9, 2016

The LORD knew His plans for Jeremiah, and had a particular end in view (Jeremiah 29:11). The same is true for us: both as Christian individuals, and as Church.

A COMMON CALL. Jeremiah 1:4-10. Throughout history both the Church in general, and churches in particular, have published books of Common Order, Common Worship, and Common Prayer; common lectionaries, common liturgies, and joint statements of faith and mission. This is not necessarily a bad ...read more

No Other Gospel

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 11, 2019

To add anything to the gospel of the grace of God is to deny the efficacy of the Cross of Jesus.

NO OTHER GOSPEL. Galatians 1:1-12. From the outset, the tone of the Apostle Paul’s letter to “the churches of Galatia” (Galatians 1:2b) is one of disappointment. The opening signature “Paul, an apostle” is immediately followed by a negative assertion - “not from men nor through man”; and a ...read more
