Even today, we hear testimonies around ...read more

Empty Philosophies Series

Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 22, 2017

Paul states explicitly here that there are philosophies that sound logical and reasonable but are simply wrong, and take us away from the Good News of Jesus. Logic and philosophy are good, but they can only take us so far.

Colossians 2:8 See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy, which depends on human tradition and the elemental spiritual forces of this world rather than on Christ. Paul considered how Jesus makes the Christian faith different from all others. I hinted at the ...read more
