Joel Chapter 1 Discussion Page 3

This is literal as well as spiritual. Yahwehs people as descendents from Abraham Isaac and Jacob...many Americans do not know they are descendents. But Yahweh knows. Well they have not been recieving wine or wheat or barley.... they are starving for true interpretation from the Scriptures. Pastors claim to be feeding the flocks... but it is false. Surely the Yahweh will reveal his secrets to his servants the prophets. And he chooses someone from the line of prophets to reveal these truths... there is one line... and they try to tell the leaders of the Christian churches.... but are blocked... just as in the days of the Catholic church. All these protestant leaders stopped protesting and now their flocks are starving. We must call a solemn feast (keep the feast) and meet with Yahweh at his appointed times and meet with his appointed prophet. In these days.... when we see this destruction of all these things coming to pass before our very eyes.

If we look close, this is also a parallel message to the United States, since our laws are Judeo-Christian laws linked to Israel. The rotten seeds would be our wheat in the grain belt the West. The meat cut off would be the cattle that were slaughtered because of the drought in the West. The fires are the uncontrollable fires, burning out west. These are signs, signals to the people of God to wake up. Food prices will double price and more in the future because of shortages. The key is get right with God, God is coming to get his people, come into the kingdom of God.

Joel is calling us to prepare for the Day ofthe Lord. Ministers and priest should mourn. We should santify a fast, and call the elders to the assembly. The coming of the Lord should produce a holy life. We are not to be drunk with wine, but rather are to be filled with the spirit. Prepare to meet the Lord.

I like the way the 1611 is worded I think that alot is lost in translation 1611 seems to nail it Joel gives alot about the last days that I have never heard in churches
