Genesis 46:28 - 47:31 Throughout the course of

human history, to say that God's people have been peculiar is a

gross understatement. They are the very possession of God, which

means that they must be distinctive in a world which is godless.

Distinctiveness, rather than relevance, is the very means by which

the gospel is promoted. As the people of God would make a momentous

move to Egypt, their peculiarity would become obvious. In the same

manner, even now believers are to have marks of distinction,

proving they are the possession of God.
