Title: We Proclaim Christ! Right?
Scripture: Colossians 1:9-29
Rev. Kerry Doyle, of the local EFCA district, is preaching today
- We are to be All about HIM, Christ, our hope of glory (1:9-27)
- We Proclaim Him, with Wisdom, Willing to Suffer (24-28; cf. Col. 4:2-6)
- We’re Purposeful: To Present Mature Disciples to Him (vs. 28: cf. Matt. 28:18-20; Gal. 4:19; Rom. 15:16)
- We Persevere in this Mission, with His Power (vs. 29; cf. John 15:1-5; 1Cor. 15:10)
Questions for Study:
- Do you know Him, God’s source of hope for us? (1:26, 27)
- Are you growing in knowledge of Him? Study, pray Col. 1:9-20
- Do you live to make Him known? With your:
- Life – fruit of Spirit, deeds (Gal. 5:19-22; Matt. 5:13-16)
- Lips – truth of Spirit from the Word (Col. 3:16-17; 4:5, 6)
- What flows most frequently from you? Politics, pandemic, playthings… (Luke 6:45; Col. 3:14-16)
“Act wisely toward outsiders, making the most of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you should answer each person.”
(Col. 4:5, 6 – CSB)
