Authority

Colossians | Introduction

“We must refocus our eyes on Jesus and Jesus alone. That’s what Colossians does. It focuses on the centrality and exclusivity of Christ Jesus, His identity and His all-sufficiency for everything we need, and our identity in Christ.”
– Pastor Josh Blevins

Walking in the Authority of Jesus Christ

18 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go [a]therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” [b]Amen.

-Matthew 28:18-20

Jesus has the Better Title: Hebrews Part 2

Jesus has the highest place of authority above the angels, yet became lower than the angels to bring the highest salvation to the lowest of men.

The Christian’s Responsibility

In light of the last days that we live in, our practical, everyday decisions matter. We must not give in to the culture of apathy around us but work hard for the glory of the Lord while there is opportunity.
2 Thessalonians 3:6-18
