The Holy Spirit Brings Down the Mighty

"The Sun will be turned to darkness and the Moon to blood before the great and glorious Day of the Lord, and all who call on the name of the Lord will be saved." 

 

The Day of the Lord as an event is a towering figure that occurs over and over in the biblical narrative. What exactly is meant by the Day of the Lord? What does in mean to the people of God as an event that has already come to pass, and as an event that we wait and hope for? How does this hope for the coming of the Day of the Lord that overturns empires and brings down the mighty change the way that we live in the world now?
