The world is trying to remake you in its image.

Will you let it?

In Romans 12, the Apostle Paul reminds his readers that the world is intent on creating worldly people. That’s what it does. It wants to conform you and I to its own priorities. However, Paul tells Christians that we are NOT to be conformed – instead, we are to be transformed through the ‘renewing of our minds.’

Questions That We’ll Answer:

A) Why is conformity bad (and dangerous)?

B) How does transformation occur?

C) What does it mean to ‘renew’ your mind in God’s Word?

Genesis started in a GARDEN.

It ended in a COFFIN.

In Genesis 1, things were looking great. God had created the world, and said that all He had created was good. But things got dark in Genesis 3.

Following man’s sin in Genesis 3, a roller coaster of depravity followed. In Genesis 4, Cain killed his brother, and things didn’t improve through the end of the book.In today’s sermon, we will consider Genesis 50 (the final words of the last chapter).

Questions That We’ll Answer:

A) What does Genesis tell us about mankind?

B) What does Genesis tell us about God?

C) How does Genesis set the stage for the rest of Scripture?

They meant it for evil. But God used it for good.

In Genesis 45, Joseph’s brothers stood before him – brothers that had once sold him off to slave traders, and then told their father that he was dead. They had acted wickedly! And in a ‘twist of fate,’ their lives were now in his hands. But was it really a ‘twist of fate?’ Was their encounter just an amazing coincidence? That will be the focus of today’s study.

Questions That We’ll Answer:

A) What is ‘providence,’ and how does that word apply to Gen. 45?

B) Why didn’t Joseph exact revenge, when given the opportunity?

C) What was God’s purpose in all the events of Joseph’s life?
