This message concludes our series from this wonderful passage of Colossians by looking at the last of the things that Paul says Jesus IS. We will also see what the Church IS, and will be reminded one more time of what is expected of each of us within our relationship with Jesus Christ. I think that you will particularly like some of the Greek words in this passage, as you will know them! The sermon closes with one of the great verses in Scripture.
This message shows a number of things! We see what the Gospel IS; we see what our responsibility to the Gospel IS; we see who Paul IS; and most importantly, we see one more definition of Who Jesus IS. This passage helps us to understand why we should listen to Paul and His explanation of Jesus and we find great joy in this identification of Christ.
This message continues our series on this amazing passage of Colossians as we continue to see Who Jesus IS! In this section, Paul doesn't describe what Jesus has done but instead, Who He IS. And by learning more about His identity, we are drawn to worship. Today we see that He is the Head of the church, the "first" from the dead, and the reconciler of the world.
This message takes us into a new mini-series within the book of Colossians by focusing on two verses from chapter one. In this series we'll try to refocus our eyes a bit. We tend to focus on what Jesus has done, and rightfully so. But value is also found in seeing who Jesus IS. When we know who He IS, we discover a greater appreciation for what He has done.
