Scriptures: Colossians 1
[audio: https://www.ekklesia.church/media/2014/20140209.mp3]
Notes:
True Christians were loving people and cared about others. They defined what it means to be a true Christian. Are you a true Christian?
These people prayed often. Are you praying to impact other people’s lives?
If you are spending more time thinking about yourself, you are not one of these true Christians.
This book talks a lot about what it means to be saved and to give your life to Christ.
A saint is someone who is a child of God. They are souled out for Christ. Are you a saint?
You want be someone who is faithful in Christ. If you are not trying to be faithful, then why are you here? What are you trying to be as a Believer?
Peace and Grace comes from God. You need God’s power, grace, and peace to help you deal with things in life.
Do you pray for those that are not related to you?
What are you doing to show the love of Jesus Christ to other people?
When you want something, you want everyone to pray for you. So, pray for others that also want prayer.
These people aren’t living for the things of this world, they are living for Christ to get into heaven.
When you become saved and know the grace of God, your life completely changes. You begin to bear fruit (results).
Are you bearing more or less fruit for Christ?
If you can’t be a warrior, soldier, or fellow servant for Christ, you are weak and have to value.
You have to be a loving person. If you are someone who is standoffish and to yourself, you are not loving.
How do others know that you are saved? By the love that you show one to another.
Do you pray that others may be filled with the knowledge of God and wisdom?
Do you want people to know how to deal with things that they may face?
Don’t make decisions without first thinking about what God wants.
If you don’t open your eyes to see what is really going on, then you will miss out.
When you go to bed at night, do you want to know that you did everything right by God?
God has did something for all of us, be thankful and worthy of Him.
God has giving us the power to do everything that God wants you to do and still be pleasing to Him.
How are you trying to increase in the knowledge of God?
There is nothing that you will go through that God can’t give you the strength to get through.
If you are not saved, you are in darkness.
The devil can play tricks on your mind, and you need God to stop it.
