Am I redeemable? - Acts 7:9-16 Sermon | Anglican Church Prescott
About this episode
The sermon explores the theme of redemption through the story of Joseph as a foreshadowing of Christ.
Text: Acts 7:9-16 In this sermon, we look at the second section of Stephen's sermon. Here he turns his focus to Joseph, one of the 12 sons of Jacob, the patriarchs of Israel. Stephen draws on the image of Joseph to show that God redeems people who often seem unredeemable, and he does it in ways that are often unexpected. But we'll also see that Joseph is a shadow of Christ, foreshadowing a far better redemption than even the council dared to expect. But just as Joseph foreshadows Christ, Stephen reflects him. As we think about all these connections, we are reminded yet again that our hope is in a God who redeems those who often seem the most unredeemable.
