The Day Of The Lord, Already, Not Yet.

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Aug 10, 2024

The day of the Lord is also the day of Christ’s coming. It refers to his first coming and his second coming. There is an already and not yet aspect to the day of the Lord. Christ has come. The return of Christ and final judgement has not yet come.

When Joel wrote about the day of the Lord it was understood that this was some dreadful event coming like the invasion of a foreign army or a natural calamity like locusts destroying the crops and causing a famine. There was also a hopeful expectation to the day of the Lord that in the end it ...read more

The Spirit Is Coming! Series

Contributed by Mark Armstrong on Feb 17, 2019

Joel promises restoration through his Son and the sending of his Spirit. God promises to renew people who repent and turn to him.

For all the talk about forging our own brave, new world, the evidence seems to the contrary. People are despondent and the world seems a mess. Every day the ideological battles play out in the public square are they are prising apart public opinion and fragmenting society. Climate change—gender ...read more

Wind, Fire, And Word

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 22, 2025

At Pentecost, God shattered every barrier—proving His Spirit speaks every language, loves every culture, and saves all who call.

Introduction — The Music of Words Language. That simple word carries a universe inside it. Gustave Flaubert once wrote that language is “a cracked pot on which we beat out a tune for bears to dance, while we long to make music that will melt the stars.” What a contradiction—clumsy and celestial ...read more

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

Even on the male and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit. “I will show ...read more
