I do not seek to understand that I may believe, but I believe in order to understand. For this also I believe, –that unless I believed, I should not understand.-- St. Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109)
Today's audio sermon from Genesis 45:1-15

Allen,
Nothing gets done without forethought and strategic planning. So, are you saying that organizational structuring affirms leadership's methods of being "Joseph's brothers"? Or that even in their shortsightedness, Joseph's brothers are unculpable, unaccountable and Joseph is to "suck it up"? And then "Joseph" is to "turn the other cheek" or "let evil prevail" because if he doesn't then, he won't be a "person of character"? Or that "God's will" will not be done?
I am being practical here, as well as "modern" in understanding that many do not believe in an interventional "God" that "has a specified", "determined" "WILL" that HE enforces upon his creation. Our Founders didn't even agree on that.
Do you want people to believe that "evil does NOT prevail when good men do nothing"? OR that "evil MUST NOT prevail when it comes to others, but when it comes to themselves, then they must DIE with their mouths closed, praising God" for his "unspeakable gift"? or holiness...right? If so, Unbelievable!
Angie,
Once again, you demonstrate your almost indescribable lack of reading, and in this case, hearing comprehension.
I won't even dignify your comments with a response.
