Joel’s “shall come” prophesy

Let’s continue on with one more scripture to define just what is Joel’s “shall come” prophesy.

1 Peter 2:9 But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A HOLY NATION, A PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

Again we find the neutral “you” (meaning both men and women) used of those who are God’s priesthood, God’s holy nation, and a people who are His own possession.

And yet again the neutral “you” (meaning both men and women) is used to tell who proclaim the excellencies of God.

Thus we find Joel’s “shall come” prophesy to be defined as both men and women freely proclaiming the works of God.
