     | 4,343 views

    Joseph, son of Jacob and Rachel, lived in the land of Canaan with ten half-brothers, one full brother, and at least one half-sister. He was Rachel's firstborn and Jacob's eleventh son. Of all the sons, Joseph was preferred by his father, who gave him a "long coat of many colors."

    Rev. F. Andrew Dixon If married couples can learn to handle their finances on certain principles based on God’s word, they can avoid conflict because of finances and also stay out of debt. Learn how your finances can be blessed so you can be a blessing to others.

    We read in Matthew 22:2, “The kingdom of heaven is like to a certain king, who made a marriage for his son..”(Webster) We considered this verse in one of the previous messages, to understand that the kingdom of heaven is likened to a certain king who organized marriage for his son, which implies ...read more
