Pastor Ryan expounds on Colossians 3:5-14, as Paul in the Holy Spirit explains God's declaration that we are a new community, new in Christ. We are shown in Scripture to avoid the actions that destroy community, and pursue Unity in Christ.

Our own BCC member Rev. Symps Ndlovu guest preaches for us today, preaching on Colossians 3: 1-4

We continue in Colossians, delving deeply into the great promises of chapter 2:8-23. Christ is THE Anointed One, as our King He has saved us from all our sins, and has removed the burden of trying to be righteous through any endeavors of our own. He has conquered the accusations of the evil one against us, and we can now freely serve Him as our King!

Returning to our series in Colossians, we explore the truths of Chap. 2:1-7 to determine with conviction our need for each other, to strengthen each other's walk with Christ for a healthier, victorious church. The Apostle Paul confesses his struggle for a unified and healthy body, because he knew he needed the Church, and he knew WE needed the church!

Jonathan had the conviction, courage and power to stand up to the Philistines, he and his armor bearer alone. What faith in God did he have, and what faith to trust and obey did he practice? We look at I Samuel 14 to find our answers and our commands to do likewise, to "climb our cliff" for the Lord!

Pastor Ryan continues his focus on the lessons to be learned from Colossians 1:24-29 Christ's Work, Paul's Work, Our Work Christ in You - The Mystery Revealed Proclaiming Christ through His Power

We look at the deep implications that a detailed review of Chapter 1:21-23 yields, declaring that we were once alienated from God, but now WE are reconciled to Him through Jesus Christ our Lord - stand firm in this truth!

Using Acts 28:1-10 as our focus lesson, Pastor Rick discusses the reality of failing, yet to our God we are not failures! Sometimes God using failings to bring about HIS plans, protecting even ourselves from our own designs, especially when they are not what God has in mind for us!

Today we focus on the other side of the great hymn found in Colossians 1:15-20 - Jesus Christ, the Reconciler. No greater demonstration of the spiritual reality of the "Christ reconciling all things to Himself" than the church, His Church. He is the Head of the Body, the Beginning, the firstborn from the dead - therefore He has every right to give us His Calling.
