As the series in Colossians comes to a close, what are the last words we're left with, and how do they impact us as we make Christ supreme in everything we do?

The Bible has a lot to say about living in right relationships.

Last week we learned that living as Christ followers means that are things we need to put away, and this week we discover the things we need to put on. Because we are God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved, we are to live in such a way that we are reflecting His Spirit to those around us.

Christ is supreme in all things. It might be tempting to think that we should "be better people" because we can earn God's favour. But we put to death our sinful desires and put away sinful actions because we are part of God's new people! We do so because we are transformed by Christ.

What distracts you from following God? Colossians tells us to keep our eyes up and focused on Jesus, living in a manner worthy of our calling.

The Old Testament laws and regulations pointed to the fact that we needed a Saviour. That Saviour has now come, so don't let anyone tell you that you need to add anything to what Jesus has already done.

Understanding who Jesus is and what he did (and does!) guards us against falling for false substitutes.

The power of faithful ministry is that we use the gifts that God has given us, to be the people (the church) that He wants us to be.

It might cost you to be faithful, but a faithful minister counts the cost of gospel proclamation. Listen in as Pastor Aaron Groat talks about this challenging passage from Colossians 1.

Who is this Jesus, and why can he forgive sin and offer redemption?
