The Terrible Day of the Lord-What to expect-5

As mentioned before, Joel gives a very summary complete overview of the last days. It does not have a tremendous amount of detail, which we find in other books, but gives us insight that is needed. The following are most likely the verses that are known the best from Joel.

Joel 2:28-32  And it shall be afterward, I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy; your old men shall dream dreams; your young men shall see visions. 

This event has yet to happen. Since God will pour out His Spirit on all flesh, then all ungodly, unrighteous flesh will have been removed from the earth, as we read last time.

2:29  And also I will pour out My Spirit on the slaves and on the slave women in those days.

Interesting that there seems to be slaves in the millennial kingdom. But, in reality they are bond-servants to the Lord not slaves as we might understand the term. In reality, all true believers are bond-servants of the King.

2:30  And I will show wonders in the heavens, and in the earth, blood and fire and pillars of smoke.2:31  The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of Jehovah. 

This is one of the most repeated signs in all prophetic passages. God is making sure we don’t miss His signs of His coming. This is not the blood moons which false teachers are always commenting on and writing books about that fit their false theology.

2:32  And it shall be, whoever shall call on the name of Jehovah shall be saved; for salvation shall be in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, as Jehovah has said, and in the remnant whom Jehovah shall call.

Two closing comments on this verse. First, salvation is always being presented. The gospel is always available to the world. Secondly, there will only be a remnant, just as there has only always been a remnant.

Have you called on His name? Have all those you love called on His name? Time is short, no real time to waste.
