Becoming Who We Are

Dennis McCallum

Ephesians 1:1-11

Once we are baptized into Christ, we receive all the spiritual blessings in the heavenly places. Although our present condition does not seem to be much different, our condition has radically changed for the better. We can now see ourselves in Christ and no longer focused on performance. We are now secure, motivated and unafraid.

Paul instructs Timothy to be a workman who is does not need to be ashamed, who accurately handles the Word of truth. Know which arguments to redirect, to avoid, and which ones to respond to.

What Jesus Accomplished through His Death on the Cross-Pt1

Gary DeLashmutt

Colossians 2:13-14

Early in Christianity, false teachers rose up to say Jesus's death on the cross was not spiritually significant. But the Bible is emphatic that Jesus' death on the cross was a very significant. It accomplished what no man could do. It demonstrated why we need forgiveness. It displayed how God provided forgiveness. And it showed the amazing extent of God's forgiveness.

The "Who" of the Gospel: Jesus

Gary DeLashmutt

Colossians 1:15-23

Paul teaches the Colossian church about the supremacy of Jesus. Jesus Christ is the unique and perfect revelation of God. He is also the absolute owner of the entire universe and the sole redeemer of universe. It's from knowing who Jesus is that we can determine what he means for our lives. In this case, Jesus can save people and reconcile them to God through his work on the cross. Once that happens, as we focus on Jesus, we are able to see transformation in our lives.

With Christ:Past,Present,Future

Jim Leffel

Colossians 3:1-4

Just as nothing can change the details of our past, neither can anything change the fact of our justification if we are in Christ. If we are in Christ, it is a fact that we are raised and seat with Him. Now, our life is completely identified with Christ's life. What is true off Jesus is true of us. And finally, when Jesus is revealed in glory, so will we. Knowing all these things are true, we are to keep our eyes focused on Christ and the things above.

When God Became One of Us:Implications of the Incarnation of Christ

Jim Leffel

Colossians 2:8-15

The incarnation of Jesus Christ is the most central truth of the New Testament. Christ did what for us what only God could do for us. It is through the incarnation of Jesus that we can know God. Christ answers our need to know God, our need to be worthy and our need to matter. In Christ, God made us whole. He became our proxy. What is true of him is true of us. He took our place and paid the price to free us from our sin debt.

Jesus' Healing Ministry

Ryan Lowery

Matthew 9:1-8

In Matthew 8 and 9 we see Jesus perform miracles, healing people. They are important in that they verify his claim to people at the time that he was God--and stand as evidence for us to know that Jesus is God and is the path to a relationship with God. Jesus' miracle working also shows God's love for those who are suffering.

Christ Our Savior

Jim Leffel

Colossians 1:12-22

This passage summarizes in a nutshell the entire story of the Bible. It encapsulates who Christ is and what he has done as King, Creator and Redeemer. As King, he has enabled fallen man to be transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of the Son. As Redeemer, he has reconciled us by paying the debt we could never pay. As Creator, he is the source of regeneration from death into life, a new life.
