DIGITAL BULLETIN 23 October 2022

Week 6 – Everyday Saints

Everyday Saints, Colossians, Current Series — Faith is lived between Sundays. Join us for a series in Colossians and learn to become an Everyday Saint.

In this message, Pastor Brad continues the series “Everyday Saints,” from the New Testament book Colossians. In this series, you will learn how to discover your identity in Christ and live your faith in a broken world.

In this sermon, you will learn to avoid four types of Christians who judge and disqualify others in a way that is of no value in your walk with Christ.

Life-in-Christ is lived between Sundays, in everyday life. Learn how to respond to culture, friends, and family with the grace, peace, love, and hope of Jesus Christ.

Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men, ²⁴ knowing that from the Lord you will receive the inheritance as your reward. You are serving the Lord Christ.
Colossians 3:23-24

SCRIPTURE: Colossians 2:16-23; Galatians 2:11-14 (ESV)

Therefore let no one pass judgment on you in questions of food and drink, or with regard to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath. ¹⁷These are a shadow of the things to come, but the substance belongs to Christ. ¹⁸Let no one disqualify you, insisting on asceticism and worship of angels, going on in detail about visions, puffed up without reason by his sensuous mind, ¹⁹and not holding fast to the Head, from whom the whole body, nourished and knit together through its joints and ligaments, grows with a growth that is from God.
Colossians 2:16-19 (ESV)

Deconstructing Dylan

If with Christ you died to the elemental spirits of the world, why, as if you were still alive in the world, do you submit to regulations— ²¹“Do not handle, Do not taste, Do not touch” ²²(referring to things that all perish as they are used)—according to human precepts and teachings? ²³These have indeed an appearance of wisdom in promoting self-made religion and asceticism and severity to the body, but they are of no value in stopping the indulgence of the flesh.
Colossians 2:19-23 (ESV)
