Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation.
Joel 1:3 belongs to a prophecy describing the condition of the world just before the second coming, when the end of all things is at hand. It portrays a time when iniquity abounds on every hand. That abounding iniquity exists because men have transgressed the law. By continual transgression they have broken the everlasting covenant, which was given on condition of obedience.
As men turn away from God and from His righteous government, the world comes more and more under the sway of seducing spirits. Even men professing godliness indulge their own traits of character in this time. Unless they are conscientiously under the control of God, they become self-indulgent and self-centered.
