One Single Story Bible Themes Part 3Намуна

The book of Joel in the Bible discusses the theme of the day of the Lord, which speaks of judgment and salvation. Joel describes the Lord's wrath upon the people of Judah due to their disobedience and sinfulness. The Lord used locusts and drought to discipline the people, but Joel pointed to an even greater judgment that was yet to come. This judgment would involve wars, famine, and destruction of the land, but it would ultimately lead to salvation and hope for those who turned to the Lord. Joel reminds us that we are accountable for our actions and that we should repent and turn to the Lord if we want to avoid judgment and receive His grace.
