Jesus Christ: Our Peace, Our Life, Our Hope

Jan 07, 2018

Preacher: Rick Blackwell

Detail:

Jesus Christ: Our Peace, Our Life, Our Hope 

  1. Jesus Christ, Our Peace. (Pardoned from the past that had robbed us of peace with God.)

Ephesians 2:13-17 (ESV)

13  But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.

14  For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility

15  by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace,

16  and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility.

17  And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who were near.

 

  1. Jesus Christ, Our Life. (Liberty from the chains of sin in our present life.)

Colossians 3:3-10 (ESV)

3  For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God.

4  When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

5  Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry.

6  On account of these the wrath of God is coming.

7  In these you too once walked, when you were living in them.

8  But now you must put them all away: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth.

9  Do not lie to one another, seeing that you have put off the old self with its practices

10  and have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator.

 

  1. Jesus Christ, Our Hope. (Jesus, our only hope for Heaven)

1 Timothy 1:1 (ESV)

1:1  Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by command of God our Savior and of Christ Jesus our hope,

 

Colossians 1:27-28 (ESV)

27  To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

28  Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.
