Love as You Are Loved

Jesus. A Study of Colossians
In this message, we see how God’s unconditional love and forgiveness empower us to love and forgive others. Because He has canceled our sins and fully values us through Christ’s finished work, we no longer live in shame, guilt, or attempts to earn His favor. Instead, trusting in His love frees us to share that same love with those around us, demonstrating the very heart of the gospel. As God’s beloved children, we put on this new clothing—His compassion, kindness, humility, and patience—knowing our relationships flourish only when they flow from His life and love within us.

Embracing Our New Identity

Jesus. A Study of Colossians

Captivated by Christ

Jesus. A Study of Colossians
In this section, Paul warns the Colossians against being taken captive by religious or mystical practices that distract from the finished work of Christ.
