Even Now

“The minor prophet Joel teaches us that God’s mercy is astounding, conditional, for everyone, but might also comes in the form of a locust plague.”

Sermon Summary

The prophet Joel gives us a unique insight into the astounding mercy of God. Even after sending His people a wake-up call in the form of a locust swarm, even after sending His people a prophet to call them to repent, and even after sending a warning of coming judgment, God is still calling His people to return to Him: return to me with all of your heart for I am merciful and relenting. When the people return to the Lord with all of their hearts, the Lord mercifully welcomes them back. The minor prophet Joel teaches us that God’s mercy is astounding, conditional, for everyone, but also comes in the form of a locust plague.
