Joseph's Deception (Genesis 44)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Jul 26, 2024

Did Joseph deceive his brothers? Should we engage in deception? Let's look at Genesis 44.

The Bible contains truthful DEscriptions of events, but not every DEscription is also a PREscription or recommendation for us.

Here Comes Trouble Again! # 2b

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 6, 2022

In the previous sermon, we established that one of the things that distinguishes us from each other is the way we conduct ourselves when troubles come our way.

When the good times come, we all respond basically the same way. For example, when someone asks us HOW WE ARE, all of us just give them a big smile and we say, “GREAT!” In the difficult times, we can see the difference in people. When the difficult times come and you ask them HOW THEY ARE. . . • ...read more
