In the kingdom of God, there is a principle that won’t be violated: he who wants to receive mercy, must be one who shows mercy. This teaching talks about what mercy means and how we navigate showing mercy in our world.

When I realize that nothing in this world can satisfy me, and I understand my sinfulness in light of who God is - I go to God to receive the righteousness that I can’t earn on my own.

Jesus follows the progression of thought in the intro to his sermon on the mount. First, he talks about being poor in spirit and recognizing our own sinfulness. Next, he talks about mourning over that sin and receiving the comfort of forgiveness. In v. 5 Jesus shows that as a result of that recognition and repentance, we now live a life of meekness and confidence - trusting God to be our defender....

Though the believer in Jesus has now begun to recognize the depth of sin and the hopeless feeling that comes with it, this results in mourning over that sin, which will lead to the comfort of Jesus.

God desires for you to be happy, to live a blessed life. As Jesus begins what is arguably his greatest sermon (Matthew 5-7) he starts by talking about the way to enter into that kingdom life. Jesus tells his followers that the starting point into the kingdom of heaven is to start poor in spirit.

Since we have been offered the unmerited favor of God, we must begin to embrace this new reality. God’s house should be a house where there is a different atmosphere and reality than the world. This is a place where grace is offered and embraced freely.

God’s house is a house of radical generosity. In our world we are taught to seek out pleasure, seek out riches and accumulate things. God’s house is meant to have a different set of values where we work, plan, and save in order to be radically generous in our pursuit of the spread of the Gospel and help for those in need. 

The house that God wants to build is different from the world and culture around us. In a world and culture that is tribal, our church body should be a place that is diverse culturally, economically, and generationally.

In this passage Paul continues to show how Christ has a new plan and way of living for me. This extends to how slaves relate to their masters and how masters relate to their slaves. Embedded in the whole conversation is a new understanding of our work and our reward

Our miraculous transformation in Christ does not just impact us, or our relationship to our church body - but it starts at home. The true test of our sanctification is taking place at home, with what our families see in us and how we love and treat one another.

Paul has encouraged the Colossian believers with a message to God to put their sin to death, taking off their old “clothes” and lives tainted by sin.  He now turns to what it is that they’re meant to wear instead, encouraging them to put on the love of Christ, the peace of Christ, and the Word of Christ. 

In this passage Paul writes to the Colossian Christians to remind them of the deadly battle that will continue to daily be fought in their lives. They will need to put to death their sexual and social sins, on account of which God’s wrath is coming. They will need to be reminded that their old self is dead, take off those dead man’s clothes and put on the new identity purchased for us by Christ.

Paul begins to get into the meat of false teachers doctrine that is plaguing the Colossian church. He says that they don’t need to worry about what to eat or drink or what religious ceremonies and festivals to observe, they need to hold on to Christ. The false teachers claimed a higher wisdom, brought on by observing religious rules that allowed them spiritual experiences - Paul says they are not...

Paul has defined the Gospel in chapter 1 - and his role as minister. Now, he moves on to begin to talk about the dangers that he is seeing within the church. Specifically, that the church members are listening to people who are deluding them with plausible arguments and philosophical arguments - but abandoning the power of Christ as they do it.

Paul is rejoicing as he is in prison, that by the preaching of the Gospel he has been counted worthy to identify with Christ in suffering. As a minister of Christ he counts himself (and us) as mere stewards of the gifts, talents and lives that we have been given by God - responsible to God for ministering on His behalf. We, like Paul, tirelessly share and teach everyone about the mystery of the Go...

In Jesus we see what God is really like. We can see that he is merciful, personal, and powerful. We don’t get to define God however we like - we have an image of the invisible God in Jesus Christ.

This is a hugely controversial passage in cults and false teachings. What does it mean that Jesus is the firstborn over all creation?
