By Jorge de Campos - The heretics were judging the Colossians about their eating and drinking during God's festivals. To the heretics the Colossians should be abstaining eating and drinking, rather than rejoing. Paul tells the Colossians to not allow these heretics to criticize them, but rather let the spiritual Body of

We need to be rooted in Christ!
By Jorge de Campos - Gnostic Judaism seeking to absorb the newly emerging Christian religion with its syncretic admixture, was the culprit that Paul was combating in Colosse. Paul explains that our sins are wiped out by Christ's sacrifice on the cross. With this action Christ disarmed principalities and powers. He tells

Pastor Dan preached that Christ alone is the believer's strength, confidence, and sufficiency. From Colossians 2:1–10, he warned against false teachers who distract from Christ and burden people with manmade traditions, urging the church instead to stay rooted, built up, and thankful in Jesus—because in Him “the whole fullness of deity dwells,” and He is all we need. His call was simple and strong: cling to Christ alone and reject every teaching that shifts your focus from Him. #ChristAlone #RootedInChrist #StandFirmInTheFaith #ThankfulInChrist

The post [Re]centered (Colossians 2:6-7) appeared first on First Baptist Church of Olney.
In Ezra 10 we read of the renewal of the covenant and a commitment to be faithful to the marriage covenant that Yahweh had made with Israel. The chapter speaks of Ezra and the exiles' acceptance of the covenant's solemnity was demonstrated by their declaring that they would only marry wives within the covenant bonds. After three days all the people assemble before the house of God trembling because of the solemnity of the occasion and the heavy rain. The rain meant that they needed delegated officials to stand for them in these matters. The assembly together with Ezra discussing this matter and determining to do what God had commanded. The Senior officials of the assembly are guilty of marrying out of the truth and they are named in the balance of the chapter. Those officials are required to put away their foreign wives in order to preserve the integrity of Israel's covenant with their God and maintain the truth faithfully.Hosea 11 tells of God's covenant love for His son Israel. Yahweh calls His son "out of Egypt", as the book of Exodus attests and at that time Yahweh gives to them His covenant name as evidence of His purpose with His people. Matthew 2verses15 cites Hosea 11verses1 and applies it to the Son of God - the Lord JesusChrist. The verses in chapter 11 which follow speak of the nation's resistance to their Father. As a Father the Almighty took Israel by the hand and trained them to walk in His covenant way. Despite their perverse heart in wanting to go back to Egypt Yahweh would not give up on them (verses 8-9); but in the time of their chastisement they would eventually again seek Him.Colossians 2 together with Romans 6 provides the most complete description of what baptism is and what it achieves. Verses 1-5 tell us that in Christ we find a complete embodiment of the wisdom of God in a single individual. So we, the body of believers need to model and pattern ourselves on the Lord Jesus Christ. Verses 9-10 tell us that all can know about the Almighty is to be found in Christ. Verses 11-15 describe what baptism is - it is like circumcision in that it tells us that "in the flesh" - that is within our nature (dwells nothing innately good). There is nothing in human nature that can do anything good for God. And so human nature is rightly related to death. In dying Christ destroyed a body identical to ours - in that every sin which has been done could have been done in Jesus' body. The Jews and Romans were driven by the lusts of their natures to try to destroy our Lord Jesus Christ. But by not yielding to the passions which controlled his enemies our Lord victoriously triumphed in his sinless death. That death on the stake was a demonstration of the truth that human nature is rightfully related to death. Only when the lifeless body of our Lord hung on the stake was sin conquered in him and in his resurrection the process of salvation completed for him - and by establishing a basis for our forgiveness and thereby the way for our salvation. Therefore, in crucifixion Jesus destroyed sin (called in Hebrews 2 "the devil"). So, from verses 16-21 Paul tells the Colossians to focus on the pivotal and central teachings of the truth, and not to be distracted by side issues.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow
Legalism has plagued churches of today having people stooped in religion over understanding the context of the gospel and what faith in Christ and a relationship with Him means. Paul explains this over and over again to the church, but it can be hard to see or understand when you feel as if the whole Bible is written to you. The whole Bible is written for us, but not to us.Many of our churches today will say they do not believe you can earn salvation by works, but they do teach you can earn acceptance, blessings, and fellowship with God by all the things you do or don't do.Listen to this episode as Jackie goes verse by verse in Colossians 2, as Paul warns the church multiple times over this false teaching and even asks them why they are separating themselves over these things.Support the showConnect with the ladies of Her Portion, HERE!

The apostle Paul commands that as Christians, we should stand firm in our union with Christ. Pastor Rob Curington shares how we are to do this.
Because Christ has triumphed in the cross, no one can judge Christians based on those things that Jesus has fulfilled. The Old Testament regulations concerning food and drink and Sabbaths are a shadow of the body of Christ who has now been revealed. Although false preachers peddle practices that may look religious, any worship or piety that does not teach us to cling to Christ has no value. Only Christ, the Head of the Church, can hold His body together and cause it to grow and bear fruit. Rev. Ryan Ogrodowicz, pastor at Grace Lutheran Church and School in Brenham, TX, joins host Rev.

Because the Colossians have received Jesus, St. Paul exhorts them to walk in Him and remain rooted in the faith He has established in them. They must not be taken captive by philosophies that are only manmade traditions, for these are not from Christ. He is the One in whom the fullness of deity dwells bodily, and He has filled His Church. In Holy Baptism, He has incorporated His Church into His burial and resurrection so that we receive the triumph that He has won over all powers through His cross. Rev.

This week Youth Director Tyler Wilhelm reminds us that in Christ we are made complete, our old selves buried and raised to new life through faith. Through the cross, Jesus canceled our debt and disarmed every spiritual power that stood against us. As we rest in His finished work, we're reminded that true freedom isn't found in human effort or tradition, but in the victory and sufficiency of Christ alone.
