A Complete Study of the Book of JOEL | Introduction | Chapter 1 | Lesson 1

The Book of Joel, the beginning of a complete study from the Hebrew perspective. In this video, Tom Bradford, our Bible teacher, will be providing a masterful introduction to the book of Joel.
This book has two very clear parts; the first one talks about God's wrath on Judah, and the second one talks about Judah's deliverance. However, there is much more to discover.
Join us in this fascinating and in-depth study of Joel.

First time i read Joel, i thought nah, too far out there. Now, the book of Joel hits a lot different. I've seen and come to know a lot more of life now, than I did then. Now, it doesn't seem far out there at all.

The 27 Club Joel 2:7 “They shall run like mighty men; they shall climb the wall like men of war; and they shall march every one on his ways, and they shall not break their ranks:” Rev. 9:6 -9 And in those days shall men seek death, and shall not find it; and shall desire to die, and death shall flee from them. And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. Blessings family...

I'm new at this and have nothing but respect for your history and your teachings are on point. I maybe wrong so please correct me when I am. You kinda make it seem your under a covenant but your not so does this mean your not under law? It explains a lot. Not saying anything wrong with this , you shared a lot these are private matters don't mean to overstep your teachings

[@HellNoMoreBiden]

Not any of us are under the old laws. We have the Ten Commandments that are also in the New Covenant. If you're not expected to follow any earlier Jewish laws it's not completely wrong it's that Jesus will be a judge and He must know you. I feel you don't know much about your history and why it needed changing.

[@user-wc8se8uc9z]

No new covenant for the children of Israel. I don't there war god Yahweh in Gaza leading them. He always led the warband ordered genecide and got his cut of the plunder virgins cattle and alcohol and I believe he's a alcoholic. Anyway if he was with them there leaders would not be freemasons Yahweh was a jealous god matter of fact one of his commandments says have no other god B4 him we the punishment for disobedience to Yahweh,death

Repentance and a contrite spirit is necessary, even for Christians. There was a yearly sacrifice, what about the days in between? God simply IS merciful but He KNOWS our hearts. Jews have a covenant. God just smacked the devil with a surprise. God wants us all.

[@Briand-ei1gs]

The Christian nations of European descent cannot distance themselves from the old testament because the Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, Anglo-Saxon are those people referred to as the tribes of Israel. The sons and daughters of Jacob.

[@rdallas81]

Jeeze man. Don't you know Paul seen the light? He preached to the Gentiles because Israel is and was divided. Read the kings, Chronicles, and the prophets. Jesus came as a better "sacrifice" and they rejected Him as they do now, as they did then. "There be FEW who finds Him"

[@Briand-ei1gs]

@rdallas81 jeez man can you read or do I need to say it again? The gentiles more often than not actually refer to the northern house of Israel who had been dispersed. Most of the new testament lettets are addressed to them. Just read the beginning of Peter. The Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, Anglo-Saxon are those people .

[@Briand-ei1gs]

@rdallas81 The people that the new covenant was made with are the same people the old covenant was made with. The Kingdom of Judah and the Kingdom of North Israel have been united as 1 stick in Christ hand just as He said.The branch that was grafted backbon was the same branch that was broken off. Not some strange and foreign people.

[@Briand-ei1gs]

@rdallas81 as they do now? Who tjise liars calling themselves " jews"? They have no connection at all to the line of Judah. Already by Jesus time the land if Judah had become a multicultural shithole with even enemies if God edomites being called " jews" due to forced conversions. What do you think Jesus talked about His sheep and who they wete? Called the pharisees sons of the devil. He knew who was who. It is not even arguable. With any amount of honest study. The Germanic, Scandinavian, Celtic, Anglo-Saxon are the sons and daughters of Jacob!
