    When you are born-again there is a change in you. This change is reflected in the way we live out our lives. What are you portraying - the Old or New you?

    Put Away the Old – Put On the New Colossians 3:1-17 If … you were raised with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ is, sitting at the right hand of God. (2) Set your mind on things above, not on things on the earth. (3) For you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. ...read more

    What defines a spiritually pure church? Paul uses Colossians 3 to expound on how changed lives and a new standard of excellence create a purity in the church that is pleasing to God.

    The Spiritually Pure Church Colossians 3:1-17 I. Different Demands on Your Life (v. 1-4) a. New perception (v. 1-2) i. Vision like the Spirit (Romans 8:5) ii. Obstacle without it (Matthew 16:23) b. Reasons for the new demands (v. 3-4) i. Death of the old nature (Romans 6:2, 11; 1 ...read more

    Before I could see any change in my life I first had to realize that all the things I was pursuing in my life were not leading to life in Christ.

    Life Change Through the Jack-O-Lantern Colossians 3:8-13 NKJV But now you yourselves are to put off all these: anger, wrath, malice, blasphemy, filthy language out of your mouth. 9 Do not lie to one another, since you have put off the old man with his deeds, 10 and have put on the new man who is ...read more

    Paul is telling us that as believers our mind is to be focused on God and His purposes.

    Do not let the title of this sermon fool you! This sermon is not about the proper attire for church attendance, but rather what kind of "spiritual clothes" the Christian should wear at all times.

    What should Christians wear to worship? This sermon is NOT about the proper attire for church attendance. God doesn’t care as much as man does about dress as long as it is modest and decent. This sermon IS about what the Christ-centered life should look like, and not just at church, but at all ...read more

    As Christians, we need to be reminded that we have been called to be a distinct people in the world. Certain actions and certain attitudes that belong to the lifestyle of the world do not fit in the lifestyle of the Christian. In other words, while we liv

    I saw a quote the other day that grabbed my attention: “The Christian is not ruined by living in the world, but by the world living in him.” At no other time in Christian history has this statement been more true, for the lines between Christian and non-Christian, between the church and the world, ...read more

    Paul reminds the Christians to stay focused on who we really are and the true gospel that gives them hope, that they originally believed in, because they are sidetracked by the heresy of the Gnostic gospel.

    Colossians 3:1-11 The other day Christy, my six-year-old, looked for me in the house calling “Daddy, where are you?” I said, “I am here in the basement.” She came down to the basement and as she approached me she said, “Well, I forgot why I came down to tell you.” She thought for a long while and ...read more

    In our text, Paul speaks of the new life that we have in Christ. He looks at it from three different perspectives: past, present and future. 1- A past experience 2- A present enjoyment 3- A future ecstasy

    INTRO.- ILL.- I am reminded of the old story about the funeral of the unsavory character who had never been to church in his life. He had led a very questionable life, meaning he’d done about anything and everything a person could think of and it wasn’t good. The service was being conducted by a ...read more
