<div class="SSN_title">"GOD'S OVERRULING PROVIDENCE"</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">I. LOOKING FROM THE DIVINE SIDE.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. The World is in rebellion and lost.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Their concepts of God are wild, confused and wrong.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Man's sin has alienated him from the life of God.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. God still loves man and plans to send His Son to earth to teach man clearly of God then to demonstrate God's love by taking the guilt of man's sin upon Himself and dying in man's place.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. It is necessary to select a man to start a family to create a nation bring forth the Messiah into the world.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. God chose Abraham.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. His grandson Jacob had twelve sons who were to comprise the twelve tribes.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">D. God will in time groom this nation, establish His law and covenant, send prophets unto them to warn them and to encourage them.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. He shall lay out such an intricate network of prophecies concerning His Son they shall form incontrovertible proof of His authenticity.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">E. Here at the beginning of the plan Jacob's family is in trouble.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. In about 12 years a great famine is coming.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. All of Jacob's resources are not sufficient to survive.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. He will need the resources of Egypt.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">4. God must put the resources of Egypt at Jacob's disposal.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">II. LOOKING FROM THE HUMAN SIDE.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Jacob's obvious favoritism of Joseph creates jealousy and hatred in brothers hearts.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Joseph's dreams of them bowing to him only heap fuel on the fire.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. They plot to kill him, saved from death by Rueben's intercession.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Sold to slave traders taken to Egypt.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. In Egypt sold to Potiphor one of Pharaoh's chief men.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">3. Potiphar's wife falsely accuses him of rape.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">4. Cast into prison (which prison).</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">5. The chief butler and baker of Pharaoh are also cast into prison and they're having troubling dreams which are interpreted correctly by Joseph.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">6. Two years later the Pharaoh also has a troubling dream. The butler remembers Joseph.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">7. Joseph is called before Pharaoh and interprets the dream.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">8. Joseph is made second in command in Egypt.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">a. Actually began to run the country. The Pharaoh became a figure head.</div>
<div class="SSN_level4">b. He stores the surplus grain in the good years in sufficient supply to last through the seven-year drought.</div>
<div class="SSN_rnum">III. PROBLEM IS THAT WE CANNOT SEE OR KNOW THE DIVINE WHILE IN THE MIDST OF TESTING.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">A. Why do my brothers hate me and treat me so cruelly.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">B. Why I am falsely accused.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">C. Why I must sit in this jail for two years.</div>
<div class="SSN_level2">D. What can we know?</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">1. God loves us and is working out His plan.</div>
<div class="SSN_level3">2. All things work together for good.</div>
