But Christ is all, and in all
Introduction:
What is Jesus Christ to you? -He has a place!
-He has a Big place!
He doesn't just want a big place, He wants, desires, deserves preeminence!!!!
-Thats a big question, v 4 says that Christ “Is our Life”
Is he your Life?
Seek v.1
Jesus consumes my ambitions!
The things you seek are your ambitions
Matthew 6:33 Seek ye first the kingdom of God.
a. Be careful for the philosophies of the world
Colossians 2:8
spoil, it literally means “to carry you off as a captive.”
“Don’t let someone carry you away as a captive”
b.
Be careful for the rituals of the world
Colossians 2:13-17
-Illustration- a dog chasing a shadow of a bird instead of looking to the things above.
c.
Beware of the Religions of the world
Colossians 2:18-19
What he’s saying is, “Don’t go following after some angelic being or some highfalutin religious philosophy.
You hold on to Jesus, which is the Head.”
I’ve been preaching long enough to be amazed at two things: number one, that men will not believe the truth; and, number two, what men and women will believe.
Satan is not against religion as long as it’s the religion of this world.
2. Set v.2
Jesus dominates my attention!
Proverbs 4:23 Isaiah 26:3
3. Slay v. 5
(Mortify) “To put to death forcefully and immediately”
To Love something you have to hate some things
You could not have love without hate any more than you could have high without low, or hot without cold, or in without out.
If you love justice, you hate crime.
If you love health, you hate disease.
If you love purity, you hate pornography.
If you love flowers, you hate weeds.
love without corresponding hate is Hypocrisy!!!
Certain things need to be put to death if we are to Love Christ.
psalm 119:104
Now we’re to hate narcotics, liquor, communism, atheism, pornography, and any sin in our own lives.
It needs to be put to death.
Why?
Because “Christ is all, and in all.”
What is the Christian life?
It’s not Bellevue Baptist Church.
It is not prayer.
It is not the Bible.
It is not doing good.
It is Jesus Christ.
Christ is our life!
He is all and in all.
