How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

Welcome to Through the Bible with our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

We're making our way through God's entire word in five years, and we find that the New Testament writers often referenced the Old Testament.

And when events in the New Testament fulfill prophecies from the old, were amazed at the continuity of the entire word of God.

Here's an example.

In our study of Acts 2 about the Day of Pentecost, believers were filled with the Holy Spirit

and began to speak in other tongues.

Hopefully you remember that.

Peter was then called on to explain what was happening, and he quoted the prophet Joel,

saying, it shall come to pass in the last days that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh.

Now, is that an example of Joel's prophecy being fulfilled at Pentecost?

Or is there another explanation?

Well, Dr. J. Vernon McGee is going to answer that question in this study of Joel Chapter 2.

I'm Steve Schwetz, inviting you to hop aboard the Bible bus and find your seat.

And while you do that, Greg and I have got a quick report inviting you to hop aboard the Bible bus and find your seat. And while you do that,

Greg and I have got a quick report as we move forward in our mission to take the whole word to the whole world. And it's just stunning to step back and think that by the grace of God, we are now

distributing Dr. McGee's systematic teaching in over 250 languages. And so as we talk today about

one of those, just let your mind imagine the global impact in almost every corner of the

globe in so many languages. So let's talk today about Pular, a language that is ministering to the

country of Guinea in Africa, that's in West Africa,

parts of Guinea-Bissau, Sierra Leone, Senegal, and a small number of people in Mali.

Yeah, and like so much of Africa, Guinea is 88% Muslim.
