Is there a new breed of legalism today? Seems like we’re always trying to reinvent legalism and make it more relevant or, conversely, more ceremonial! Why does Paul use the word “if” in Colossians 1:23? It seems like he’s saying we Christians need to hang on for dear life!

What if the real gospel isn’t about getting closer to God?You’ve probably heard it all – spend “more time” with God, be “intentional,” confess more, surrender more, and then, maybe you’ll end up closer to God. But what if that’s all backward? What if you’re already as close as you’ll ever be? No striving, climbing, or spiritual gymnastics – just IN.If the apostles were here today, they’d set the record straight: Closeness with God isn’t earned, upgraded, or improved over time. You’re either in or out. And if you’re in, you’re in – forever. Baptism won’t seal the deal. More good behavior won’t level you up. And no, you don’t “abide” some days and wander off other days. You’re fully united with Christ right now, no matter what.Progressively getting closer to God is a myth. Watch now and celebrate your “divine entwine” with Him!Discussion Questions:1. What role does baptism play? In water? In the Spirit?2. React to this statement: You are IN the Trinity.3. How close are you to Jesus? Why?4. What does it mean to “abide” in Christ? Are you abiding in Him? Why or why not?5. React to this statement: Christ is your life and you will be revealed with Him in glory.6. Explain the difference between location (in the Spirit) and walking or setting the mind.7. What is God’s will for your life? How is this different from what we often hear?8. What does Philippians 4:13 really mean? How is this different from what the false health-wealth gospel promises?
