While reading the story of Joseph, my emotions were all over the place throughout all the chapters. The only part I felt vengeful was Joseph's upbringing of what his brothers did to him. This was my first time reading this story. I was thinking to myself that I wished God had a way to make sin vanish from the earth and sin will no longer happen even today. I wish the whole world was at peace, and everyone show kindness to one other. I wish anger, bullying, hate, scorn, favoritism, and hell did not exist.
As I was wishing for that, I had some skeptical questions in mind. If God had the power to make sins and the devil disappear completely on earth in biblical times. Will there still be preachers and teachers? What would the pastors teach about in religion if evil did not exist? How would the world be like if the devil was gone completely? Should only happiness and kindness be going on in the land?
