    The people of Judah had become prosperous and smug in their relationship with God. The book of Joel is one of warning to the people of Judah and it can be applied to believers today.

In the first part of chapter 1, Joel predicts that a locust plague will befall the people of Judah. In the ...read more

Two times in Romans, once in Luke and once in Hebrews. In Romans 9:10, it says this: And not only this; ...read more
