The Preeminence of Christ
Colossians 1:9-18 expresses the preeminence of Jesus Christ, and our required response to Him. There is much to be found in the text, and we can examine it line by line. Remember, “He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation” (15).
We must seek to “be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding” (9). As Christ is the “head of the body” (18), His will is our mandate. We can’t know how to act without diligently applying ourself in study of His word (cf. 2 Timothy 2:15).
Sermon: The Church Belongs to Christ!
