Get Out of your Grave Clothes!

We will bring up in the bucket of our mouth everything that is in the well of our hearts.  Paul now deals with the sins of the mouth in verses 8-9.  These 6 sins are to be "Stripped Off".  Our list of commands continue:  Seek, Set, Set Not, Slay & Strip Off.  Grave Clothes have no place on the living.  "Loose him and let him go!"

Killing Sin

"Every unmortified sin will certainly do two things:-- [1.] It will weaken the soul, and deprive it of its vigour. [2.] It will darken the soul, and deprive it of its comfort and peace.” - John Owen then went on to say, "Be Killing sin or sin will be killing you".  In a very frank declaration of the text, Pastor Paul details the violent execution of sexual sins in the life of a Saint.

Empowered and Implored

God's commands are His empowerment.  In this transitional section of Paul's letter to the Colossians, We are reminded of our Co-Resurrection with Christ as the ground of God's empowerment to obey the commands to Seek, Set & Set Not.

 

Know Your Role - 1 Peter 2:9

This week Pastor Nick Brown returns to the Lake Wildwood Baptist Pulpit to lay out a clear exposition of 1 Peter 2:9 in a sermon called "Know Your Role"

Enjoy this excellent sermon from a gifted Pastor

Accept No Substitutes

Jesus is Enough...unless He isn't.  In the text of Colossians 2:16-23, We will uncover 3 'Ism's' that should have become 'wasims' by now.  But no.  Every one of these substitutes are alive and well in the Church today.

Say amen or ouch

The Power of the Cross part 2

Today we finish the teaching through vs 15 of Colossians 2.  Paul deals with our 3 barriers to God:

1:  Our Sin Nature/Old Man - Crucified in Christ (dead)

2:  The Law - which condemns us justly

3:  Satan - our enemy who promotes disobedience to the law

When St. Paul is done, we discover our freedom to live in the Completeness of vs 10

Beware of Deception

There's a lot of 'baptizing' of secular philosophies and empty ideas going around the church today...and in Paul's day.  Join us as we walk through three verses that tell us to Beware, to Be Wise & to Be Woke to the truth.

As & So

Paul tells the Colossians that they walk in Christ daily the same way they received Him initially.  In this exposition of Colossians 2:6-7 you will discover what it means to Receive Christ by faith and to walk around Him in the same way.  

Blessed Assurance

Assurance.  It is in short supply these days because our sources are suspect.  There is an assurance that is Centered in Christ, thrives in Community, and encouraged by faithful Shepherds that will never disappoint.  

Rejoicing in Suffering

Join Pastor Jay as he takes us through the last section of Colossians chapter 1.  How much do you love the body of Christ?  Are you willing to suffer for it?  Paul was and he rejoiced that he could.
