Joseph Rejected
Jan 5, 2025 • Craig Smith
This sermon focuses on Joseph's early life, highlighting the favoritism from his father, Jacob, which led to hatred and jealousy from his brothers. Joseph's dreams further fueled their envy, leading to his being sold into slavery. Despite this, God's providence is shown as Joseph’s life parallels that of Jesus, who also descended from a place of honor to suffer for a greater purpose. The sermon underscores the destructive power of jealousy, the consequences of generational sin, and the hope in God’s redemptive plan.
