20 Mar. 2012 - Colossians 2:4-23

Colossians 2:4-23
"Christ Versus the Colossian Heresy"

Paul, here, is warning the Colossian church to avoid the world's arguments and philosophies. He does this in three steps:

  1. Being aware of and not following the world's philosophies and beliefs.
  2. Being aware of the salvation through the sacrifice of Christ.
  3. Not allowing anyone to judge or discount you because of their false faith./beliefs
In this passage in its entirety, Paul goes into great depth about what Christ went through to bring you this salvation, laying down his own life in sacrifice for us. He goes even further, describing to us as having died with Christ, being washed free of sin, and receiving the righteousness given through the sacrifice of Christ.
