Sermon Overview
Scripture Passage:Colossians 1:12-21
Adrian Rogers says, To explain Jesus Christ is impossible, to ignore Jesus Christ is disastrous, and to reject Him is fatal.
It is crucial we understand who Jesus Christ is. If we know Him, we will love Him; and if we love Him, we will trust Him. To trust Him is to be radically, dramatically, and eternally transformed.
Colossians 1:15explains how Jesus reveals the Father: He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
God is Spiritinvisible, unfathomable, unapproachable. We will only know God by revelation, and Jesus Christ came to reveal Him to us. We will never know the Father except through the Son; the visible Jesus makes the invisible God known.
Colossians 1:18explains how Jesus rules the future: And He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may have the preeminence. Jesus is the power and preserver of creation: And He is before all things, and in Him, all things consist(Colossians 1:17).
Adrian Rogers says, The little baby inMatthew 1is the Mighty God ofGenesis 1; there was nothing made without Him.
Jesus Christ is the glue of the galaxies; He is the one who feeds the sun with its fuel, sets out all the stars, and guides the planets in their orbit. He is the purpose of creationall things were created by Him,for Him(SeeColossians 1:16.).
Finally,Colossians 1:21explains how Jesus reconciles the fallen: And you, who once were alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now He has reconciled.
Jesus reconciled God and man to a right relationship through His death on the cross. When Jesus created the universes, He did it with His Word. But when He saved us, it took every drop of His blood.
We could not make peace with God, so Jesus made peace with the blood of His cross. We need to enter into that peace by faith and trust the Lord Jesus.
