No Average Joe (2 of 2)
Series: Advent
Kenton Beshore
Alright. Why did God choose Joseph? I mean really God could have chosen anyone. He chooses Joseph. We are gonna look at 2 things, his character and his faith. I’m gonna read to you the Christmas story as it is told to you in Mathew chapter 1. Now this is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother Mary was in engaged to be married to Joseph. But before the marriage took place, while she was still a virgin she become pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit. Joseph her fiancé was a good man and did not want to disgrace her publicly. So he decided to break the engagement quietly and he considered the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. “Joseph son of David” the angel said, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for the child in her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. And she will have a son. And you are to name him Jesus for he will save his people from their sins. All of this occurred to fulfill the lord’s message through the prophet.

And he took Mary as his wife but he did not have sexual relations with her until after her son was born. And Joseph named him Jesus.

And we also know that by the time Jesus is 30 Joseph is dead. And so we d ...
