Colossians Series • 9. Boasting in Jesus Christ - Colossians 2:6-23 Part 1 Since we are saved by the finished work of Jesus Christ plus nothing, we are able to walk in obedience to God out of pure thankfulness. In this portion of the letter, the Apostle Paul expounds upon the many ways that we are IN Christ, WITH Christ, and TOGETHER WITH Christ. All of these statements build a beautiful doxology of praise for our successful Redeemer! This message was preached on Sunday, May 29, 2022

~ Elder Bryce Lowrance ~ Leave a comment

Colossians Series • 8. How Do We Receive Christ? - Colossians 2:6 Part 2 How do we receive Christ? How a person answers that question greatly affects how they walk in Christ. Part 2 of this message begins in Ephesians Chapter one. There we learn that the doctrines of election, predestination, justification, and glorification, when taught properly, show that God and God alone is able to save us from our sins and ourselves. Man is the object of salvation, not the cooperative cause by his will or works. This message was preached on May 15, 2022.

If salvation be by man's will or works, then our continued works are the grounds for our justification before a Holy God. However, if salvation is by grace plus nothing, then we are secure in the finished work of Christ. God gets all the glory for salvation, and we can walk in humble obedience out of just pure thankfulness. This message was preached on May 15, 2022.
