freedom in Christ
With the pace of life and the overload of information, we’re easily distracted. It’s hard for us to go deep with anything because there’s always something new to try. That tendency is fatal to a healthy walk with Jesus. This message shows how to fix it.
Colossians 2:6-15 // [outline]
The Bible contains some remarkable accounts of people whose lives were dramatically changed. It also shows people who are stuck and never seem to progress. This message looks at the amazing transformation of Matthew, and how Jesus spoke with those who sat on the sidelines while others chose to follow.<Intro>
People see the commands of God and feel their condemnation. Shame leads to defeat which leads to sin and more shame. The gospel breaks this cycle. We now live under the principle of double jeopardy. This message looks at how our death to sin’s penalty enables us to walk free of its condemnation and serve God in the power of the Holy Spirit.
