Message: “The Supreme One – Part II” from Tom Leonard

A message from the series “Colossians.” The Supreme One
Colossians 1:13-20

Main Point:
Everything in our lives must declare Jesus Christ as the Supreme One and proclaim the hope that He alone holds for alienated and lost humanity.

Part I
1. He is the Supreme One because of Who He is:
A. The Image of the invisible God. (verse 15)
Hebrews 1:3

B. Firstborn & Sovereign over all Creation. (verse 15-17)

Firstborn – legal phrase = Heir

C. The One in Whom all things consist – ‘hold together’. (verse 17)

John 1:1-3

D. Head of the body – His Church. verse 18
Ephesians 1:22-23

E. Incarnate Reconciler of all things. (verses 19-20)

Ephesians 1:10-Philippians 2:9-10

Part II

2. He is the Supreme One because of What He has done:

A. The sacrifice of His physical body unto death. (verse 15)

God’s fullness dwelled in bodily form in Jesus Christ. (verse 19 & 2:9)

Hebrews 10:8-10

B. His Resurrection from death, conquering its power. (verses 18-22)

Firstborn from the dead = He was the first to have a resurrection body

C. Presents those ‘in Him’ as holy, without blemish and free from accusation. (verses 22-23)

The condition is Faith that continues in Him! (verse 23)

Phil 2:5-10

It is this Supreme One Whose Spirit births, forms, grows and lives Christ through us!

Do you know this Supreme One?

A message from the series “Colossians.” Got Fruit?

Message: “Are You a Wise Builder” from Tom Leonard

A message from the series “Not Part of a Series.” Are You a Wise Builder?
Matthew 8:24-29

Main Point:
If we will learn and put Jesus’ words into practice, our life will be built upon the solid rock foundation that will endure the storms of life. But if you do not put them into practice, your foundation will be sand and will not endure the storms.

Psalm 18:1-3

Are you in Christ?

1. Jesus Christ is the solid rock foundation God has given us for our lives; we must learn His words and put them into practice!
v24

I Peter 2:6-8

I Peter 2:2

2. Those who reject Christ, and even those who hear His words but do not put them into practice in their lives, are built on sand and will ultimately perish.

Matthew 8:21-23

Only a faith that obeys is a faith that stands!
