Look at this passage carefully!  All our Joel’s Army & Kingdom Now brethren should take note!  This world is not our home, we are STRANGERS AND PILGRIMS, and nothing can change prophecy. Though this passage states that our merciful LORD does not act without compassion, it does say that we are…

prisoners of the earth…

Deep things of God, beloveds. Deep love, deep compassion, and very deep wisdom.
