Preaching is a living activity. The delivery of the Word is meant to be deeply informed by the relationship between pastor and people. There can be no substitute for being present in your own assembly when the Word is preached by your own minister. We strongly encourage you to listen regularly and receptively to the Word preached by your own teaching elder.
With that in mind, we offer the following sermons. If you find them helpful we would be more than happy to hear from you and to get to know you.
The Story of Jesus in the Story of Joseph (Genesis 37:2-36)
Psalms for singing
Psalm 40 stanzas 1-4
Psalm 40 stanzas 5-8
The final section of Genesis (ch. 37-50) brings the beginning of the story of salvation to its climax. In that climax, we see Jesus foreshadowed by Joseph.
1. Jesus' origin is foreshadowed by Joseph's sonship
2. Jesus' mission is foreshadowed by Joseph's being sent by his father
3. Jesus' perfection is foreshadowed by Joseph's good character
4. Jesus' humiliation and exaltation are foreshadowed by Joseph's life story
