Text: Colossians 2:5-10
Title: The Importance of Apostolic Tradition
INTRODUCTION
Today we’re gonna
Continue our series
in Colossians.
Let’s turn together
in our Bibles
To Colossians
Chapter 2.
& we’re gonna read
verses 1-8
Colossians 2:1-8.
& when you find that
in your Bible
pls stand for the reading
of God’s Word.
The title of today’s teaching is:
The Importance of
Apostolic Tradition
In Colossians 2:5-9
The Scriptures say:
Colossians 2:5–9 (NIV)
For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him,
rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
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.
For in Christ all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form...
You may be seated.
How important
is Apostolic Tradition
in the Church?
How important
is Apostolic Tradition
for our salvation?
Some of you may be
thinking:
“I would answer
“those questions
“But I don’t know
“What Apostolic Tradition is.”
Today we’ll talk abt
what Apostolic Tradition is.
& talk abt why
it’s so important
in the Church
& for our salvation.
Let’s pray.
PRAYER
Father we thank you
for your word.
We ask you
to open our eyes
to see the truth.
Open our ears
To hear the truth.
Open our hearts
To believe
the truth.
& give us grace
to obey the truth.
In Jesus name.
Amen.
Paul starts this passage
Using military language
to describe
the saints in Colossae.
Paul has inspected
the troops
& found them living
disciplined lives.
They’re ready for battle
In the good fight
of the faith.
& what’s very interesting
is how Paul knew
they were ready
for battle.
In Colossians 2:5
Colossians 2:5 (NIV)
For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in [the] spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.
How was Paul
present w/ them
in the spirit?
& how cld Paul see
in the spirit
how disciplined
they were?
Does Paul mean
the HS gave
Him some kind
of window to see
into the lives of the saints
in Colossae?
Honestly?
I have absolutely
no clue
how this works.
But that is
what Paul says.
