Christian Completeness in Christ's Supremacy

October 18, 2020 Speaker: Mahlon Smith Series: Life Under the Son

Passage: Colossians 2:9–19

Morning Message: Christian Completeness in Christ’s Supremacy

Colossians 2:9-19

 

Sermon summary: We have so defined Christ’s supremacy as: “having first place over all things” (see Colossians 1:18). In the last two messages, we explored living in-light-of and enjoyment of Christ’s supremacy. Life and joy in Christ’s supremacy enriches the Christian so they can bless others. In this message, we will observe the need for “completeness” in Christ’s supremacy. Christian completeness is the wholeness of one’s soul met by Christ.

 

1. Application of completeness through Christ.

   Colossians 2:9-12

 

*Regeneration.

*Faith.

*Union in Christ.

 

2. Accomplishment of completeness by Christ.  

    Colossians 2:13-15

 

*Forgiveness of sins.

*Taking away of sins.

*Silencing the accusers of sin.

 

3. Active living of completeness in Christ.

    Colossians 2:16-19

 

*What can lead to incomplete spiritual growth.

*What can lead to completeness in Christ.
