Joel 3:16

Joel’s prophetic work aimed to bring warning of God’s coming judgment over Israel. The book points towards a coming “day of the Lord” when God will judge all the earth. God invites his people to repent and return to Him, reminding them He is “gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love” (Joel 2:13).

“For God so loved the world” begins John 3:16, perhaps the most familiar verse in Scripture, one of beautiful gospel truth. But what do we find in chapter three, verse sixteen of the other books of the Bible? Exploring God’s Word leads to the discovery of the depths of His love, full of compassion, care, and passion for us.
