Paul sent the letter to the Colossians in about 62 AD. He never personally visited the region where there were two groups of believers – one in Colossae and the other in Laodicea. The one letter was read by both at this time and about 34 years time when another letter was sent in 96 AD by the Lord Jesus Christ. The area was exceptionally fertile and lay in a very rich valley. The epistle commenced with the greeting “Grace (‘charis' the Greek greeting) and peace (‘shalom' the Jewish greeting) coming to the believers from God our Father. This is followed by thanksgiving and prayer for their faithfulness in the gospel; as reported to the Apostle from Epaphras. The believers were increasing in knowledge and love. But the greatest of all thanks was to be expressed to God, our Father, who had “qualified us to share the inheritance of the saints in light … and has transferred us to the Kingdom of His beloved Son” (verses 12-13 ESV). Then from verses 14-23 Paul tells us of the preeminence of the Lord Jesus Christ the Son of the Father. Our Lord Jesus is the beginning (Gk ‘archegos') and head of God's new creation and is the firstborn (Jesus firstborn by birth, death and resurrection) of that creation; the firstborn from the dead to be raised to eternal life. Verses 24-29 tell of Paul's suffering for all Gentile believers, that he might share and participate in the sufferings of Christ (as part of his body, which we,the ecclesia are). In verse 27 we have the key verse and theme of the book, “Christ in you (ie each of us) the hope of glory”.
Delivered From the Domain of Darkness – Colossians 1:13 | Biblical Truth vs. Modern Deliverance Myths25 Days of Spiritual Growth Devotional https://member.bulldozerfaith.com/product/25-days-of-spiritual-growth-devotional/In this teaching, we expose the errors of violent, experiential deliverance practices commonly found in today's ministries—screaming demons, naming spirits, and emotional manifestations. Using Colossians 1:13 as our anchor, we contrast these claims with sound biblical doctrine rooted in salvation, sanctification, and Spirit-filled living.We address five common “deliverance” categories—anger, lust, addiction, generational curses, and trauma—and show how Scripture calls us to crucify the flesh, renew our minds, and walk in the Spirit.We also uncover the theological dangers of false deliverance teachings: denying the sufficiency of Christ, promoting fear over faith, and twisting biblical authority.True freedom is found not in rituals, but in Christ alone.

Pastor Lance covers Paul's prayer for the Colossians in Colossians chapter 1, and their struggles with Gnosticism and internal issues. He emphasizes the importance of prayer and being filled with knowledge of God's will.

This sermon explores key theological themes from Colossians 1:15-23. Pastor Devin breaks down eight major theological concepts including Christology, Biblical cosmology, the supremacy of Christ, soteriology (salvation), ecclesiology (church doctrine), eschatology (end times), spiritual warfare, and theology proper. The passage emphasizes Jesus' divine nature, his role as creator and sustainer of all things, and his supremacy over all creation.Discussion Questions:What does it mean that Jesus is 'the image of the invisible God'?How does understanding Jesus as Creator affect your view of Him?What does it mean that 'by Him all things hold together'?Why is it important that Jesus is the head of the church?How does Jesus' blood bring reconciliation between God and humans?What does it mean to remain 'grounded and steadfast in the faith'?How do you distinguish between God's sovereign will and His relational will?What areas of your life need to be brought under Christ's supremacy?Support the show

Well, sometimes our call to ministry will lead us beyond our comfort zone too, and that's a good thing as we'll soon see.

The relationship between faith, love, and hope forms a powerful framework for Christian living, as revealed in Colossians. True godly love can only emerge from genuine faith, distinguishing itself from shallow, conditional human love. This faith-based love transforms relationships and situations with divine purpose and depth. Christian hope stands uniquely secured in heaven, providing stability regardless of worldly circumstances such as economic uncertainty or political turmoil.Spiritual growth requires dedicated knowledge of God's Word and will, achieved through regular Bible study, sound theological understanding, and the ability to discern truth from false teaching. While Christianity doesn't promise a pain-free existence, it equips believers with strength to endure difficulties, hope during trials, and power through the Holy Spirit. This combination of faith, knowledge, and hope enables Christians to maintain an eternal perspective during temporary struggles, serving as a powerful testimony to others.Support the show

Pastor Lance kicks off the book of Colossians with the main theme of: "The Supremacy of Christ." He emphasizes the importance of recognizing the severity of our sin, and that we are unworthy of the grace the the Lord gives us. When we recognize that we are indeed sinners in desperate need of God's grace, we then can become dispensers of that grace. He closes by stating that if we are willing to obey the will of God in our lives, we can be the "one" in someone's life that points them to the Lord.
