This week in our sermon, we will be looking into Colossians 1:15-20.
A major theme in our sermons series we are calling "Revealed: The Image of the Invisible" has been the emphasis that Paul gives to the knowledge of God. Knowing God is what salvation is, and increasing and being filled with the knowledge of God is what we need for a life that is pleasing to Him.
And Jesus is the perfect revelation of this God we should seek to know.
There are many different views on Jesus’ nature, and this is nothing new; throughout Church history, there were plenty of different philosophical views on the divinity of Christ, not questioning his existence nor his name, but questioning His nature. Even today, there are many so-called "Christian" groups and "churches" that preach a Jesus that is very different from the Jesus we find in the Scriptures.
