This Sunday is going to be wonderful, as we dig into one of the most Christ-exalting texts in the Bible – Colossians 1:15-20.  It’s all about “Our Sovereign And Saving Lord.” 

What a majestic portrait of Christ we see in this text!  We see his sovereignty and supremacy in all things, and we see his saving love for us.  We see that one day, when He returns, everything in this broken world will be put back in perfect order and harmony.  Evil and the demonic activity that lies behind it will be destroyed, and the world will be as God originally created it to be. 

But believers have already been reconciled to God.  How?  Through the blood of the Lord Jesus, shed for us on the cross.   After the message, we will celebrate the Lord’s Supper and remember his blood shed for us and look forward to the feast we will partake in with Him in glory. 

Be reading and praying over the text, and Lord willing I will see you on the Lord’s Day!

By His Grace, For His Glory, To The Nations,
