THE LOCUSTS (4).

ALL THIS "BECAUSE OF THE VIOLENCE DONE TO JUDAH AND
THE INNOCENT BLOOD SHED IN HER LAND".
 (Joel 3:19 NEB).

"THE VIOLENCE DONE TO JUDAH".
This "violence" was carried out against Spirit anointed sons of God by those instigating hostile measures to silence members of the heavenly "woman" of God. But Jehovah uses these members as the channels of His Spirit communications, to form His sons and to spiritually "feed" congregations of God on earth.  (1 John 2:27)  (Eph 4:11,12)  (Rev 21:2).

The "violence" of this hostile "trampling" was a work of rebellion against anointed heavenly Kingdom heirs of God     His Spirit sons. (Rev 11:1-3). It was instigated by unsealed men and their wives of the sect falsely calling themselves Jehovah's Witnesses who called upon the authority of the "deep things of satan" to enlist further enemies of The Christ and allocated to them congregational positions of authority over anointed members of the spiritual "land" of God under His Spirit cultivation. (Rev 2:24). It began immediately after these unsealed men witnessed faithful Spirit anointed sons of God partaking of the emblems of the Lord's evening meal. (1 Cor 11:23  26). So these men and women adopted the corruptive measure of appointing their own unsealed 'elders' over JW congregations, and proceeded to ostracize and excommunicate anointed Kingdom heirs of God who refused to renounce the spiritual "refining work" of God. "But as regards the people who are knowing their God, they will prevail and act effectively... And some of those having insight will be made to stumble, in  order to do a refining work because of them and to do a cleansing and to do a whitening, until the time of the end…"  (From Dan 11:32  35).

Those who refused to discontinue their spiritual "refining work" were compulsorily "made to stumble"  (were disfellowshipped), while those who stayed are unfaithful covenant-leavers and unsealed JW 'elders' of the "disgusting thing" "standing in a holy place" carrying on "a disgusting thing and a lie".  (Matt 24:15)  (Rev 21:27). Unfaithful covenant-leavers and the unsealed JW 'elders' they appointed thereby shed "innocent blood… in her land" ("her land": The spiritual "land" allotted to faithful Spirit anointed sons of "Judah").  (Joel 3:19 NEB).

After having apportioned out the spiritual "land" of God among themselves without Divine authority to do so, it is with reference to corrupted former heavenly angels (demons) who arranged for the appointment of unsealed men to positions of authority in Christ's congregations that faithful anointed sons of God say: "To that place, O Jehovah  (The Valley of  the Lord's Judgement), bring your powerful ones down." (Joel 3:11). Only after members of the "disgusting thing" "standing in a holy place" had usurped the authority of faithful anointed sons of God in Christ's congregations did these anointed "locusts" begin their spiritual work of "devouring" apostate false teachings and removing the unclean spirit of apostasy from the spiritual "land" of God.  (Joel 1:6,7).

In the book of Joel, place names are symbolic. For example: "Egypt" and "Edom" are names used to describe unspiritual people of this world who have not come to know God or be known by Him. (3:19. See Rev 11:7,8). The prophecy of God through the prophet Joel relates to the conclusion of the present system of things.
