Let me try the guy into these scriptures now and to Paul's letter to the Colossians. Touch of the cautions chapter 2 and I read from S6 oceans to invest six. That's well actually received Christ Jesus the Lord. So walk in him Russia to go shopping to him and established in the faith. Just as you were to abounding in Thanksgiving. See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy an empty deceit according to human tradition Accord is the elemental spirits of the world. I know. According to cry or in him the whole fullness of diety dwells, but early and you are being filled in him because I had already know you were circumcised or the second version by Eva down Times by The Pointer of the body of The Flash by the second station of Christ. Haven't been buried with him in baptism in which you were also raised with him through faith in the pile for what kind of God who raised him from the dead and you have a dead in your trespasses and Ian circumcision of your flesh. God has made a life together with him having a given a lot Trash Services my canceling the record of that. I stood against starts with its legal demons. That she set aside 9-inch lacrosse. It is on the rulers and authorities and put them to open Shame by triumphing over them in it. You probably got a game but it lasts. It's what I too. Haha. Send saving I want to look at the first devices are right there, but she's 6 and 7 Colossians chapter 2 their fault as yours as she received Christ Jesus the Lord so walk in him rooted and built up in him and established in the faith. Just as you were taught abounding in Thanksgiving. Walking with the Lord if we confess to be true believers to be Christians is my child the lies that we live gave religious see to that confession. This is the consent of the pool lights for the Colossians is he writes this letter to them and it begins with the very first prince of Bones by speaking of how they receive Christ. She says about 6, I'll ask that for you receive Christ Jesus the Lord so walk in him. I'm not remind successfully of the great grace The Sovereign Grace the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ The Salvation does not come by these are outfits or sacrifice or whatever. It might be for salvation Kenobi up and it would be bored salvation is totally a free gift of God. When is sovereignty he gives to those who are hits. I mean, thank God that I did so because if that were not so that would be no it's not possible rather be any real salvation if that work is not taking place and I Suite received him as we were led by grace to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. So Paul says we ought to walk in him. Trust that rest in him that I noticed that his sovereignty of his power of His grace and purpose is Always to be with us and we walk in that same way. We say to honor him receipt to glorify him. We safe to do all that he requires of us and we continue throughout the whole of a Christian experience live in those lies that he has directed this so to do which brings us to the next part about living in Christ invest too wearied rooted and built up in him and established in the face and Got7 rosin rooted and built up in him and established in the faith. Just as you were taught abounding in Thanksgiving anyone who knows the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ knows what it is truly to be rooted in him for him to be a foundation him to be a sole source of strength in to be the one who holds us and protect us and keeps Remember the power we will know the power of the sell it how Jesus told that proud of the seed be distributed in Florida in on different types of ground and he speaks particularly if that seed that fell on the rookie grab Matthew 13 of US 20. He says that's what was sewn on Rocky ground. This is the one who he is the word and a beat in the receipt with joy. Yeah. She has no roots in himself, but enjoys for a while. I'm wearing tribulation will persecution arises on account of the word immediately. He pulls a y and this sadly something that does happen many times when people hear the truth, I hear the gospel. I hit that combines the challenges of Our Lord coming to us that he's an immediate reaction but a very thought this reaction reaction that is not ready and the right sensor proper reaction. That is not Showing the need to Trudy rest on him and rest in him and he's only that which is built on themselves. And as a result, there is no substance has no strength. We know that if that seed is Jesus sign hit as I see it. And the rocky ground is not going to have any strength and it was obviously it's just a appointment worthless exercise been sadly that is the case with many of who profess to be Christians and the lives that Night Live the way we live in Christ is we see that route. We know that roots and we rest in that we rest in that strength that is his old takes out the same truth in the Ephesians Street. I bet she's special Cheney says that according to the riches of his glory and macron to you to be strengthened with power through his spirit in your inner being so that Christ May dwell in your hearts through faith that you being rooted and grounded in love. I have strength to comprehend with all the saints. What is the BRAT and length and height and depth. I don't know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. We are rooted and grounded in him in his love. I love for him. But his love for us that love keeps us and that love Securus growth. Love means that we will start and we will be strengthened there. Is that strong I'd real Foundation is he alone is able to give it to us which brings us to the another element in nights in Colossians. 207 Marie Reed rooted and built up in him. The route takes its place the route goes down with the example of the seed the roots that goes down into the soil two-drawer the nutrient soil that is necessary for the plant to grow. We don't see that Roots. Normally if we are expecting the way to work it is to grow but it does gravity Grove is because the route is there and it builds shop. It comes to the Harvey cheyne the Lord spoke of it cuz you're not hireable sets a seed for a certain amount of others others other amounts. And so it is in that Christian experience that we don't stand still if we truly rooted in the Lord than we do and we continue to grow until the Lord in his grace cause us to be with him. And we that time we enter into his glory. Growth has come to an end, but that's all I see it grows. He's not in here. Mashpee Bill shop at 8 in him the guy in Jesus makes this very clear when he speaks of the nose or listen to his word. He says in Matthew 7 verse 24 everyone the end of his these words of mine and toss them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain fan of the flats Cave of the Winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fool because they're being found it on the raw the foolish man. He says in that same as a foolish man built his house on the side and when the winds calm the storm comes that house won't stand it will fold out because it has no Foundation has no strength. It's not Bill shop, but those are truly believe it's hard to trust me. I swear I will repair shop and we will know that great strength and shorts that he is with us as we grow and I know Leach and a spear. Prince of pizza you want pizza to invest for Positas way. He says I should come to him. Livingstone as the Christ. Of course as you come to him a living Stone rejected by men but in the sight of God shows and then prevatt precious you yourselves like living stones. I'll be in Bill Sharp As a spiritual house to be a holy priesthood do up a spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. Every believer is a Livingstone in the Church of Jesus Christ. I'm not Church inside said on numerous occasions continue to say the church in biblical times has never ever a building that's nothing to do with a building. It is the true people of God and that is what he starts and we fry at Prairie stats in the next year. We will see more of those living stop, but that'll be a great ability. It will be a lot you building in that sense. We just want to take pride in the fact that we have more people but we take a very proper pride and if God is carrying out his work, but it's so sorry that we ourselves as I was living stones candy to continue to live and we live by his grace and by his help but we are proper pots of the judge and we all used in the church to his honor and to his glory at which means we will be truly established. I got an evil 7 rooted and established in the face. Just as you were taught the Christian needs to be told all of us need to learn just as when anyone has a child that child needs to be towed and needs to grow it needs to know everything is all about us and that goes on and on and off cuz we're the Lord does that with the judge he teaches us he shows more of yourself. He leads us into that deep web. Kinship with a Sailfin in a patient's chapter 4 he sums up the major ways in which the Lord has established his church and give that value of the teaching and the relevance of that. Jason is given he says Ephesians 4:11 and he gave the apostles the prophets the Evangelist the Shepherds and teaches the four major offices of the judge the apostles just that says small company and there are no longer any Apostles now and how many people claim to be an apostle put down. There is no justification for that in any way whatsoever was just those the 11 off the Jews of Judas and being rejected and sauce was a point if it was so poor cursing a very special experience. He had of the Lord and I are those apostles. Christology all the prophets those of the Old Testament people like a lighter and Jeremiah and Malachi and a guy and so many others who proclaim the word of God and the Evangelist. These were people like Timothy who are the emissaries of the Apostles in the game in the sense that is used in the Bible. There are no longer any evangelist because I would particularly a pointed directly by the apostles and I had no right to continue without appointment for the money want the answers to Shepherds and teacher no two different offices. Two different toss, but pastas those who are Chef hats that say a word that is used to it that's open Translate que pasa vitmate Shepherd and teaches the two things go together and God has set up this ministry late for the Divas can be taught and they swear to God to be glad to them and it will establish going to keep them strong in that word in the whole pup. Summit pool guys on this site in Ephesians 4 is that night might have that knowledge of the Son of God to mature man who to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ so that we may I don't know now, you know, they no longer be children tossed to and fro by the ways and carrot about by every wind of Doctrine by counting by human counting by Cardenas in deceitful skin. And this is what happens if that real ground and isn't that if that rotation isn't that then people go off and believe other things that I say some things happening in different churches or whatever and I think that looks so good that's not necessarily the case because the teaching is not that we need to be grounded fully and completely in that teach. You need to grow in the grace and the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. This is the important thing Christ is always grabbing it. This is he is saved Declare all that she is giving and Pacer game sizing one pizza two of us to that. We should be he says like newborn infants and long for the pure spiritual milk that bite you make through a lot in the salvation and that is the case with everybody but we all grow it and we can always Lord in a deeper and richer why from this is that this leads to very real Thanksgiving rooted and built up in him and establishing the fight just as you would abounding in Thanksgiving the whole purpose of Salvation. The God in Christ is brought to learn how we should praise him and thank him to give that praise and thanksgiving even in the most extreme of circumstances so many Believe that they can only show Thanksgiving events going to write happy with that. There was Charlie and so on and so forth and the moment some sort of problem arises. We need to face the fact that we as a check at suffered severe problems in many different ways. Not just the bereavements that we have experience with other things as well. But we give thanks because God is God and His word is the Lord for all his benefits to me. I will lift up a cup of Salvation and call on the name of the Lord how I pay my house or in the presence of his paper and I Impose that to the Colossians he says in chapter 3 Android 17 and whatever you do in word or deed do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ giving thanks to God the Father through him Rodger the Hebrew sums it up in a different body fat percent such an amazing truth to us a verse 13 + 14. He said for wheat for here. We have no lost in city, but we seek the Sissy That is to come for him. Then let us continue the offer up a sacrifice of praise to God that is the fruit of lips that acknowledge his night. Do not neglect to do good eyeshadow what you have for such sacrifices are pleasing to God and we need to remember as we grow a non-Christian lights. We don't have a lost insta to hear. There's a city to which we are going and we are citizens of that city that is a place where we desire to be and what we will be as we trust in him. And that's a far greater place for the Lord has purpose is for us here until that time in his purpose when we shall be cool. And then during that time you have to offer up the proper sacrifice serve in the sacrifice of the author is not a sacrifice. So I most want to sacrifice. If not not a sacrifice of time. It's a sacrifice of praise the fruit of our lips that are knowledge his name now. There is the need to do good but not the opportunity. Is that your share what we have for the Lord is pleased with that. But essentially it is every part of my lies everyday. We are by him. We followed him. We seek to honor hit. Sorry. Sorry, I lost service at this year. I'm looking forward to next year what we know that Thanksgiving. Let me know that living with Christ of truly walking with him and giving honor to him and all as he is done for us all she wants it make any comments or questions have the opportunity now to do that, please.
