Colossians
What does in mean to be "in Christ?" Join Pastor Dave and the Lakewood church family as they explore union with Christ and several of this truth's implications for godly living.
Join Pastor Dave and the Lakewood church family as they look at the first Paul's prayer in Colossians 1:9-14 in which we see Paul's constant prayer for the believers' constant need with the goal of the believers' constant walk.
Sin has broken the relationship between Creator and creation; only Jesus Christ can bring about the reconciliation for which we long!
Join Pastor Dave and the Lakewood family as they look at a believer's "before and after" portrait from Colossians 1:21-23. Before salvation, we were God's enemies because of sin. At salvation, we are reconciled to God through the cross of Christ. After salvation, we have a new position and a new practice.
Christ is our hope for future glory; Christ is our hope for present maturity.
How do you minister to people when you are separated from them? Paul prays for the believers that they would experience inner-man encouragement, inter-man unity, and rich-man understanding.
Since we have already received Christ Jesus the Lord, now, our task is simply to walk in Christ! How are we supposed to do that?
Join Pastor Dave and the Lakewood family as they look at Colossians 2:8-10, in which Paul warns the believers about following the philosophy of man rather than simply walking in Christ.
How complete are we in Christ? Christ has given us a: (1) A Completely New Heart, (2) A Completely New Life, (3) A Complete Forgiveness of our Sins, and a (4) A Complete Victory Over the Devil.
