Col 3:1-4 READ Saved-Seek-Set-See
Make sure you’re saved
V 1 If then you were raised with Christ, IF THEN- IF IF IFWere you raised with Christ? Were you saved? This is a constant theme- its not because I want the saved questioning their salvation- its because I want the unsaved- to be saved-2 Peter 1:10 Therefore, brethren, be even more diligent to make your call and election sure, for if you do these things you will never stumble;These are not the times for going back! They are the times for going forward- we need to know that we know down in our know-know who we are and whose we are-Philippians 2:12 Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling;Its not about walking around in fear- its about getting so close to Jesus that when things are rotten all around you- you can rest assured in your salvation-People say that- rest assured- but REST- ASSURED- you stop striving- you stop wondering
I know I’m saved- I know I’m going- I know Jesus and he knows me- we love each otherHebrews 4:11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.Some people say that any sort of striving is works based salvation- I don’t gather that at all- I just don’t want to miss out on the things of God- I don’t want to take it for grantedWhat relationship flourishes when you take it for granted? We say we have a relationship with Jesus- but then we want to have a double standard and say it doesn’t require what a relationship requires- time, investment, vulnerability, honesty. Relationships are RELATINGFriend MF- Didn’t talk since 6th grade- hunted him down- didn’t reciprocate- over- Not friendsAre you saved? Have you made your calling and election sure?Matthew 7:13 “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it.I’m not sure what the broad gate is- but that’s not the one I want- I want the narrow gate!Romans 6:4b says “ we also should walk in newness of life.” Are you walking that way?2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new- Have the old things of your life passed away?Colossians 3:10 0 and have put on the new man who is renewed in knowledge according to the image of Him who created him, THE NEW MAN DOESN’T DO WHAT THE OLD MAN DOESEphesians 4:22-24 READIF you’ve been raised with Christ- Do it- Working to get Cintas job- and then not showing up?
IF you are saved- THEN Seek the things of GOD
V2 seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God.What are the things that you seek? What are the things that work for?Are you working for the accolades of the world and their possessions or the things of God?I’ve been pastoring long enough to see the ones who seek after the things that are aboveCan tell you the story lines of the latest shows, but no stories of the bible. Can tell you the stock price but not the scripture address. Work hard to get money but not work hard to gain righteousness. They aren’t seeking after God- They are seeking- but not after GodI don’t have hobbies- When church is shut down- I’m lost- because I love the things of the LordNothing against hobbies- unless you know and work on that perfection more than ChristPhil 3:12 12 Not that I have already attained,[c] or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.I’m pressing on! I want to more of Jesus- I want to experience more of his grace and mercyRomans 8:6 For to be [a]carnally min...
