    Joseph was not the biological Father of Jesus, but he certainly was a good example of the CHARACTERISTICS OF A VISIONARY FATHER.

    The first two chapters of Matthew’s gospel contain five different dreams or visions. FOUR OF THESE DIVINE DREAMS WERE GIVEN TO JOSEPH - THE EARTHLY FATHER OF JESUS. It is clear to see that Joseph was a father of vision - God’s vision! Joseph had a particular responsibility among men. He would ...read more
