Colossians 2:16-23

Colossians 2:16-23

Spiritual maturity should be the goal of every believer, but what does it take in order for that to happen? In Colossians 2:1-7 the apostle Paul lays out four things that will help us grow in Christ.  

Although every one of us is unique, we all have the same basic emotional and spiritual needs. In this message we will discover four things that each of us need.    

Faith, hope, and love. These three components are like a three-legged stool; if one leg is missing, you will topple over. You must posses them all in order to grow spiritually.

What God has shaped you to be, points to what God has called you to do. And when you discover what God has called you to do ... you become a difference maker!  

The more you commit to building your life on the principles of God's Word, the more stable you'll become ... and the more prepared you'll be for the decision you'll face in life.   

Jesus Christ will give you His adequacy to meet the needs of others if you'll give your inadequacy to Him.  

The battle with insignificance is won when you learn to fully-surrender yourself to Jesus ... in Him you'll find your value and worth.  

The drift toward indifference in your relationship with Jesus Christ doesn't happen overnight ... it's a long drawn out process.  It first starts in your heart and then spreads to your thoughts and actions.
