1 John 1:1-2:6

Reasons Why the Son of God Came

Well, good morning all, and thank you for the opportunity to share with you the Word of God. Today, our sermon will come from 1 John, and we will look at some of the key ideas that the Apostle John illuminates for us in his first letter.

You see, the language he uses is very familial, very communal, and you can sense an intimacy that is very apparent in his letter. In ano… Continue reading...

Do All In His Name

Let's turn together in our Bibles this morning to the book of Colossians chapter 3, and we'll read Colossians 3:12-17:

"Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one b… Continue reading...

Therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, long-suffering, bearing with one another and forgiving one another.

The New Man and the New Community

Colossians 3:1-11, and we'll finish the section that we've been looking at over the last few weeks today before we look at the new man and the character of the new man. Colossians 3:1, the Bible reads, "If then you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. Therefore, put to de… Continue reading...
