The history of Joseph from Canaan to Egypt.
AN UNSPOKEN PROVIDENCE. Genesis 37:1-4, Genesis 37:12-28. What are we to make of Joseph? A tell-tale teenager (Genesis 37:2)? A favourite son (Genesis 37:3)? A dreamer (Genesis 37:19)? Or perhaps a boaster (cf. Genesis 37:5-10)? Or even a prophet (cf. Genesis 37:11)? What is the ...read more

The greatest detriment to faith is not doubt but fear. When Jesus reveals himself to his dsiciples on Easter evening he gives them peace to free them from their fear. Jesus works the same way in our lives.
John 20:19-31 “Peace and Faith” INTRODUCTION If you were in charge of guarding “faith”; keeping it safe from anything that would harm it, what would you be most vigilant against? • Some people would guard against affluence. We know that it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a ...read more

God reveals Himself as the One true God who redeems Israel, warns them and finally judges them. Israel is called to worship the One and only God, and to show the nations that the Lord their God, the Lord is one. They failed.

Scripture: 2 Kings 17:1-39
The opposition Jesus faced continued as He sought to reveal Himself as the Christ. Sadly they failed to see Him for who He really was. Many today deny and oppose the Gospel, but we must remain committed to share!
Hated for Healing Mark 3: 1-6 Our text today, once again finds Jesus in the synagogue on the Sabbath. While there He performed a great miracle. Unfortunately, this marvelous act of grace is overshadowed by the suspicion and animosity of the Pharisees. Our studies in chapter two revealed the ...read more

Denomination: Baptist
Grace is God doing in us what we can't do ourselves. In this passage, we see God's grace revealing Himself to Peter, Jesus building His church, and the church's victories over the power of death.

Genesis does not give us the final answers. Rather it poses a lot of questions and mysteries which are only answered later in the Gospels. Let's look at some of those questions.
Excellent resources are the ministry of Answers in Genesis and the Creation Research Institute. However, there are questions in Genesis not answered until the Gospels. Let’s look at some of those questions. At creation, God described humanity as “very good.” Are we now totally depraved or ...read more

In this sermon, we see that not only Joseph, but his brothers, pass the tests with flying colors. The thing that made the biggest difference in Joseph's life was his attitude.

He sees the events of life ahead of ...read more
