"TO LIVE RESURRECTED..." (Part 2)
The resurrection of Jesus Christ is more than a historical event and more than doctrinal truth. Christians have been raised to live resurrected! In other words, the good news of Easter brings not just new content -- but a new culture. The "clothing of Christ" produces new, humane ways of relating to one another. As such, the Apostle Paul urges the church to put on (like clothing) the love, peace, word, and name of their Lord Jesus Christ.
COLOSSIANS
Paul’s Letter to the Colossians. This little letter offers the center of gravity for Christians and churches to grow toward maturity. It sparkles with line after line of good news, convincing saints and skeptics of the truth: Christ is all. The Lord Jesus is… sufficient and satisfying, worthy and working, faithful and fruitful to bring his church to “walk in a manner worthy of Him.”
