WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.580 I'm going to be preaching from Colossians 3, 12-17 this morning, and that is on page 00:00:10.580 --> 00:00:16.019 1170 of your Bibles, but I'm going to read starting in verse 1. 00:00:16.019 --> 00:00:20.300 So 1-17, hear the word of the Lord. 00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:27.000 If then you've been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is 00:00:27.000 --> 00:00:28.379 seated at the right hand of God. 00:00:29.339 --> 00:00:33.560 Set your minds on the things that are above, not on things that are on earth. 00:00:34.420 --> 00:00:37.039 For you have died, and your life is seated with Christ in God. 00:00:37.100 --> 00:00:41.219 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory. 00:00:41.460 --> 00:00:46.920 Put to death, therefore, what is earthly in you, sexual immorality, impurity, passion, 00:00:47.420 --> 00:00:50.399 evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry. 00:00:50.879 --> 00:00:52.920 On account of these, the wrath of God is coming. 00:00:52.920 --> 00:01:00.859 In these, you too once walked when you were living in them, but now you must put them 00:01:00.859 --> 00:01:02.200 all away. 00:01:03.240 --> 00:01:08.299 Anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from your mouth. 00:01:10.480 --> 00:01:14.740 Do not lie to one another, seeing that you've put off the old self with its practices and 00:01:14.739 --> 00:01:20.659 have put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge of after the image of its creator. 00:01:21.459 --> 00:01:27.239 Here, there is not Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, barbarian, Scythian, slave, 00:01:27.339 --> 00:01:30.119 free, but Christ is all and in all. 00:01:30.120 --> 00:01:46.439 Put on, then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, 00:01:46.659 --> 00:01:49.260 meekness, and patience, bearing with one another. 00:01:49.380 --> 00:01:54.700 And if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other as the Lord has forgiven 00:01:54.700 --> 00:01:56.540 you, so you also must forgive. 00:01:56.540 --> 00:02:05.660 And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. 00:02:06.600 --> 00:02:10.920 And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body, 00:02:11.560 --> 00:02:12.240 and be thankful. 00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:19.259 Let the word of Christ dwell in you, richly teaching and admonishing one another in all 00:02:19.259 --> 00:02:25.879 wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs with thankfulness in your hearts to God. 00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:35.379 And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks 00:02:35.379 --> 00:02:36.919 to God the Father through him. 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:38.219 Amen. 00:02:41.219 --> 00:02:42.639 Sympathetic resonance. 00:02:42.639 --> 00:02:48.919 It's an acoustical phenomenon. 00:02:51.000 --> 00:03:00.839 It occurs when you have two or more instruments tuned together in the same room. 00:03:02.039 --> 00:03:04.079 Let's say you have a baby grand piano up on stage. 00:03:04.379 --> 00:03:04.879 It's tuned. 00:03:04.979 --> 00:03:06.739 You have another baby grand piano up on stage. 00:03:06.740 --> 00:03:07.840 It's tuned. 00:03:08.420 --> 00:03:13.260 You hit center C in one, you're going to hear a hum of center C in the other. 00:03:13.820 --> 00:03:16.460 That's sympathetic resonance. 00:03:18.460 --> 00:03:21.080 There's something that happens in the church. 00:03:23.180 --> 00:03:33.439 It's a phenomena called Christocentric resonance between spiritually tuned Christians. 00:03:33.439 --> 00:03:37.979 It kind of happens like this. 00:03:39.319 --> 00:03:41.699 One morning, Christ is being proclaimed from the pulpit. 00:03:42.099 --> 00:03:47.079 A sister in the Lord is overwhelmed by the glory and goodness of Jesus towards her. 00:03:49.419 --> 00:03:52.879 The spirit strikes center C in her heart. 00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:54.139 Christ's central. 00:03:55.139 --> 00:03:57.079 And her response is yes and amen. 00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:02.660 After the service, she approaches another sister and she says, 00:04:03.480 --> 00:04:04.820 Oh man, just the whole service. 00:04:05.800 --> 00:04:07.200 God ministered to me. 00:04:07.340 --> 00:04:08.520 Jesus is awesome. 00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:10.860 And that other sister responds, 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.540 Yes, yes, yes. 00:04:13.920 --> 00:04:14.660 Me too. 00:04:16.860 --> 00:04:18.199 And at that moment, 00:04:19.199 --> 00:04:22.520 there is Christocentric resonance in a church. 00:04:22.519 --> 00:04:27.319 Savoring the Savior. 00:04:28.859 --> 00:04:30.120 Speaking of Him. 00:04:31.060 --> 00:04:35.879 The Spirit of God spotlighting Christ in our midst, 00:04:36.359 --> 00:04:38.579 resulting in thanksgiving to God. 00:04:40.779 --> 00:04:42.680 How does that happen in a church? 00:04:44.879 --> 00:04:47.979 How does Christocentric resonance happen among us? 00:04:48.060 --> 00:04:51.180 I believe it's happening in the midst of Christ the King Church. 00:04:51.180 --> 00:04:52.540 How does it happen more? 00:04:53.000 --> 00:04:57.900 How do we position ourselves for more Christocentric resonance? 00:04:59.280 --> 00:05:03.100 Well, Colossians 3, 12 through 17 shows us three moves. 00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:06.620 First is a reminder who you are in Christ. 00:05:06.840 --> 00:05:09.379 Second, the need to put on Christ. 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:11.340 Dress accordingly, believer. 00:05:13.220 --> 00:05:17.280 And third, how we resonate Christ together. 00:05:17.279 --> 00:05:25.259 We each put on Christ so that we all resonate Christ together. 00:05:26.019 --> 00:05:30.619 We each put on Christ so we all resonate Christ together. 00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:34.399 But if we're not all resonating Christ together, 00:05:34.519 --> 00:05:36.739 it's probably because we haven't put on Christ. 00:05:36.819 --> 00:05:38.799 And the reason why we haven't put on Christ 00:05:38.799 --> 00:05:41.379 is that we suffer from spiritual amnesia. 00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:43.859 You forgot who you are. 00:05:43.860 --> 00:05:50.180 So let me remind you from God's word of who you are in Christ. 00:05:51.379 --> 00:05:52.420 Did you notice in verse 12? 00:05:53.840 --> 00:05:58.100 Put on then, as God's chosen ones, holy and beloved, 00:05:58.300 --> 00:05:59.500 compassionate hearts, kindness. 00:05:59.980 --> 00:06:02.980 So Paul says, hey, you've put off these things, 00:06:03.020 --> 00:06:04.040 now put on these. 00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:07.160 And then he lists five virtues that we're to put on. 00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:10.680 But in between the command to put on and those five virtues, 00:06:11.240 --> 00:06:15.780 we've got a little reminder, a little identity reminder. 00:06:17.460 --> 00:06:21.600 Paul is reminding these Gentile Christians living in Colossae 00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:23.879 who they are. 00:06:25.620 --> 00:06:27.100 He's been doing it all along. 00:06:28.060 --> 00:06:29.140 Chapter 1, verse 13, 00:06:30.280 --> 00:06:32.980 these Christians have been delivered from the domain of darkness 00:06:32.980 --> 00:06:35.340 and transferred into the kingdom of the beloved Son. 00:06:35.339 --> 00:06:40.239 We saw it in 220 where we've died with Christ. 00:06:40.359 --> 00:06:42.179 3-1, we've been raised with Christ. 00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:43.579 It's our new identity now. 00:06:43.659 --> 00:06:45.799 We've been united with Christ in his death and resurrection. 00:06:46.419 --> 00:06:47.239 The old is gone. 00:06:47.299 --> 00:06:48.039 The new has come. 00:06:50.659 --> 00:06:52.359 We've got a new aim, 3-2. 00:06:53.039 --> 00:06:56.979 We seek the things above where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. 00:06:57.620 --> 00:06:59.539 He's reigning on high right now. 00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:01.719 We've got a new aim. 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.340 We've got a new time frame. 00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:05.680 Church, what time is it? 00:07:07.440 --> 00:07:08.820 It's Christ time. 00:07:09.580 --> 00:07:11.920 We'll live between his first coming and his second coming. 00:07:12.040 --> 00:07:14.020 We live in the already and not yet, 00:07:14.220 --> 00:07:17.160 and we synchronize our watches to Christ time. 00:07:18.500 --> 00:07:20.120 This is a whole new way of living. 00:07:20.300 --> 00:07:22.500 This is Christ-central living. 00:07:23.120 --> 00:07:26.800 This is normal Christianity, New Testament Christianity. 00:07:26.800 --> 00:07:31.500 Chapter 3, verses 7 and 8, there's this before and after. 00:07:31.800 --> 00:07:35.879 Before, when you were dead in your sins, in the domain of darkness, 00:07:35.960 --> 00:07:37.060 you lived a certain way. 00:07:37.860 --> 00:07:44.300 But after you became a Christian, now we live for Christ. 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.100 Then, before, was the old self. 00:07:48.100 --> 00:07:51.700 Now, after is the new self. 00:07:52.860 --> 00:07:55.320 The Christ-central self. 00:07:56.640 --> 00:08:00.320 And here in verse 12, we're introduced to three words. 00:08:00.860 --> 00:08:05.320 Chosen, holy, beloved. 00:08:07.340 --> 00:08:08.580 You know what they're getting at? 00:08:10.480 --> 00:08:11.920 You belong to God. 00:08:11.920 --> 00:08:16.140 You're his, Christian. 00:08:17.280 --> 00:08:21.280 That word chosen is referring to God's elect. 00:08:21.780 --> 00:08:27.439 Those whom God predestined before the foundation of the world to be his. 00:08:28.400 --> 00:08:29.819 To be chosen in Christ. 00:08:29.939 --> 00:08:33.519 If you flip in your Bible to Ephesians chapter 1, 00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:35.759 we have this glorious statement of this. 00:08:39.420 --> 00:08:41.100 Ephesians chapter 1, verse 4, 00:08:41.100 --> 00:08:44.379 For even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, 00:08:44.440 --> 00:08:46.540 that we should be holy and blameless before him, 00:08:46.840 --> 00:08:51.580 in love he predestined us for adoption in himself as sons through Jesus Christ, 00:08:51.639 --> 00:08:53.759 according to the purpose of his will. 00:08:54.200 --> 00:08:59.460 That chosen language is about God's sovereign, gracious act 00:08:59.460 --> 00:09:02.040 before the foundation of the world in which he said, 00:09:02.139 --> 00:09:02.700 You're mine! 00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:09.060 He's the first mover in our salvation. 00:09:11.100 --> 00:09:13.740 There's this other word, beloved. 00:09:16.379 --> 00:09:16.980 Chosen. 00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:19.759 Holy, beloved. 00:09:21.460 --> 00:09:23.460 Speaking of God's love for us. 00:09:25.620 --> 00:09:31.960 That his sovereign choice of us wasn't some cold calculated move. 00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:36.759 It was God setting his love on you, believer. 00:09:37.240 --> 00:09:41.700 In love he predestined us for adoption in Christ. 00:09:42.639 --> 00:09:44.259 You're chosen in Christ. 00:09:44.379 --> 00:09:45.200 That's who you are. 00:09:45.340 --> 00:09:47.580 You're beloved by God. 00:09:47.740 --> 00:09:49.200 Beloved by Christ. 00:09:50.639 --> 00:09:51.540 He loves you. 00:09:52.280 --> 00:09:53.280 He chose you. 00:09:54.340 --> 00:09:54.960 You're his. 00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:58.080 That's who you are now, believer. 00:10:00.560 --> 00:10:03.860 Before the foundation of the world, he set his love on you. 00:10:05.340 --> 00:10:06.340 To what end? 00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:09.620 To be holy. 00:10:12.180 --> 00:10:12.700 Chosen. 00:10:14.300 --> 00:10:14.840 Beloved. 00:10:16.920 --> 00:10:17.340 Holy. 00:10:17.340 --> 00:10:22.040 In love God chose you before the foundation of the world to be holy. 00:10:23.220 --> 00:10:25.420 To share in his holiness. 00:10:26.620 --> 00:10:29.700 To be holy and blameless, according to Ephesians 1. 00:10:30.580 --> 00:10:33.300 To the praise of God's glorious grace. 00:10:35.200 --> 00:10:35.920 Holy. 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:36.919 To be holy. 00:10:36.919 --> 00:10:38.979 To be delighting in. 00:10:39.099 --> 00:10:40.179 To living in. 00:10:40.699 --> 00:10:45.079 To be reflecting God's moral purity of character. 00:10:46.519 --> 00:10:47.639 To be holy. 00:10:48.979 --> 00:10:51.039 And do you know what's extraordinary about these three words? 00:10:52.740 --> 00:10:56.759 If you flip back to Deuteronomy chapter 7. 00:10:59.319 --> 00:11:00.980 These three words show up. 00:11:02.519 --> 00:11:04.399 In verses 6, 7, and 8. 00:11:04.399 --> 00:11:08.720 For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. 00:11:09.980 --> 00:11:14.000 The Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession. 00:11:14.000 --> 00:11:16.259 Out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. 00:11:16.659 --> 00:11:17.579 It was not because of your. 00:11:18.939 --> 00:11:19.340 You. 00:11:19.779 --> 00:11:20.240 Hold on. 00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:23.120 It was not because you were more in number than any other people. 00:11:23.199 --> 00:11:26.199 That the Lord set his love on you and chose you. 00:11:26.439 --> 00:11:28.100 For you were the fewest of all people. 00:11:28.199 --> 00:11:30.980 But it is because the Lord loves you. 00:11:30.980 --> 00:11:33.480 And is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers. 00:11:34.399 --> 00:11:36.079 Chosen. 00:11:36.519 --> 00:11:36.860 Holy. 00:11:37.360 --> 00:11:37.759 Loved. 00:11:38.919 --> 00:11:40.120 Do you know what's extraordinary about this? 00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:44.500 In Deuteronomy 7, he's speaking of ethnic Israel. 00:11:45.500 --> 00:11:47.620 His people under the old covenant. 00:11:49.360 --> 00:11:53.139 Here in Colossians, he's using the same language to talk. 00:11:53.299 --> 00:11:54.840 Talking to Gentiles. 00:11:54.840 --> 00:11:55.840 In Colossians. 00:11:55.840 --> 00:11:56.840 In Colossi. 00:11:57.639 --> 00:11:59.560 His people of the new covenant. 00:12:01.240 --> 00:12:04.100 His blood bought people. 00:12:05.139 --> 00:12:06.740 His new people. 00:12:08.460 --> 00:12:09.440 It's extraordinary. 00:12:10.820 --> 00:12:12.840 Do you know the majority of the people in this room are Gentiles? 00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:12.879 Gentiles. 00:12:15.259 --> 00:12:17.280 This should sing to your soul, Gentile. 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:20.000 You belong to God now. 00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:22.440 Through Christ. 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:23.540 Chosen in Christ. 00:12:23.680 --> 00:12:24.600 Beloved by Christ. 00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.540 To be holy like Christ. 00:12:28.539 --> 00:12:28.659 Christ. 00:12:37.860 --> 00:12:40.559 And this is why we put away those vices. 00:12:41.939 --> 00:12:43.919 And this is why we put on virtues. 00:12:45.819 --> 00:12:46.980 It's who you are. 00:12:49.159 --> 00:12:50.480 Even if you have amnesia. 00:12:52.279 --> 00:12:53.980 There's this guy named Clive Wearing. 00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:55.740 He was born in 1938. 00:12:56.480 --> 00:13:00.940 He's like the poster child of amnesia in kind of modern studies. 00:13:02.159 --> 00:13:06.600 Apparently in 1985, he developed amnesia as a result of some kind of virus. 00:13:06.600 --> 00:13:11.120 But he couldn't remember who he was from there on out. 00:13:12.340 --> 00:13:15.200 His memory never returned to him. 00:13:15.379 --> 00:13:16.800 He forgot who he was. 00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:19.399 Christian. 00:13:20.860 --> 00:13:21.779 Not us. 00:13:21.779 --> 00:13:25.459 We can't forget who we are. 00:13:26.779 --> 00:13:29.299 We can't suffer under spiritual amnesia. 00:13:29.399 --> 00:13:30.199 Here's what happens. 00:13:31.019 --> 00:13:32.439 People get spiritually lazy. 00:13:33.159 --> 00:13:34.379 There's unrepentant sin. 00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:36.039 Spiritual isolationism. 00:13:36.399 --> 00:13:38.799 Even the kind of taking in a false teaching. 00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:41.799 And you start thinking other things of who you are. 00:13:42.899 --> 00:13:43.600 You forget. 00:13:44.519 --> 00:13:46.799 That you're chosen in Christ. 00:13:47.299 --> 00:13:48.659 Beloved by Christ. 00:13:48.980 --> 00:13:51.059 To be holy like Christ. 00:13:51.059 --> 00:13:56.059 The solution to spiritual amnesia is spiritual remembrance. 00:13:57.559 --> 00:13:58.119 Remembering. 00:13:59.179 --> 00:14:00.799 Well, you remember who your king is. 00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:02.459 And you remember what he's done for you. 00:14:03.239 --> 00:14:07.519 This is where Christocentric resonance starts. 00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:12.500 Remembering who Christ is and what he's done for you. 00:14:12.500 --> 00:14:14.500 Could you imagine? 00:14:14.500 --> 00:14:15.000 Could you imagine? 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:17.059 Our church. 00:14:19.000 --> 00:14:20.460 Living in the truth. 00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:22.799 Of who you are in Christ. 00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:24.539 Every day. 00:14:26.120 --> 00:14:28.120 Every morning you leave your house. 00:14:28.820 --> 00:14:29.139 Thinking. 00:14:29.700 --> 00:14:30.139 Chosen. 00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:31.259 In Christ. 00:14:31.860 --> 00:14:33.259 Beloved by Christ. 00:14:33.539 --> 00:14:35.240 To be holy like Christ. 00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:35.340 Christ. 00:14:37.580 --> 00:14:38.340 Every morning. 00:14:40.180 --> 00:14:41.139 Jenny, Mary and I. 00:14:41.240 --> 00:14:42.080 We'll huddle up. 00:14:42.180 --> 00:14:43.299 In our kitchen typically. 00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:44.460 And we will pray. 00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:47.240 We'll commit our way to the Lord. 00:14:47.399 --> 00:14:48.879 We will remember who we are. 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:56.259 This is the beginning of Christocentric resonance. 00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:58.740 Where you remember who you are. 00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.879 And when you remember who you are in Christ. 00:15:04.539 --> 00:15:06.200 You got to dress accordingly. 00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:10.280 You must put on Christ. 00:15:10.379 --> 00:15:12.840 You must put on Christlikeness. 00:15:13.660 --> 00:15:16.220 And we see this in verses 12 through 14. 00:15:17.180 --> 00:15:21.160 Last week we looked at two admonitions. 00:15:21.460 --> 00:15:22.440 Three actually. 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.460 Where we're to put off certain things. 00:15:25.580 --> 00:15:26.540 To put away. 00:15:26.680 --> 00:15:27.620 To put to death. 00:15:28.660 --> 00:15:30.340 In verse 5 of chapter 3. 00:15:30.480 --> 00:15:32.720 It was a list of five sexual sins. 00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:34.320 And in verse 8. 00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:36.879 It was a list of five sins of speech. 00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:38.960 And here in verse 12. 00:15:39.139 --> 00:15:41.960 We have a list of five virtues. 00:15:42.700 --> 00:15:44.000 That we're to put on. 00:15:45.460 --> 00:15:46.840 Because of who we are. 00:15:47.240 --> 00:15:48.480 Now in Christ. 00:15:49.399 --> 00:15:50.460 Let me just walk you through them. 00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:53.820 Virtue number one. 00:15:54.139 --> 00:15:55.019 Compassionate hearts. 00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.940 You have a deep seated concern for others. 00:15:59.740 --> 00:16:00.259 Kindness. 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:01.759 You do good to others. 00:16:01.759 --> 00:16:02.879 Humility. 00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:04.639 You consider others better than yourself. 00:16:04.919 --> 00:16:05.379 Meekness. 00:16:05.740 --> 00:16:07.700 You're gentle and tender towards others. 00:16:08.179 --> 00:16:08.659 Patience. 00:16:08.879 --> 00:16:11.460 You've got a long fuse towards others. 00:16:12.240 --> 00:16:12.939 Ding, ding, ding, ding. 00:16:14.500 --> 00:16:16.019 That's the one that gets me every time. 00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:19.240 Long fuse. 00:16:21.659 --> 00:16:22.939 Now when you're looking at these. 00:16:22.980 --> 00:16:25.620 You can't first help notice something. 00:16:25.620 --> 00:16:29.120 That these virtues. 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:31.500 Have a certain posture. 00:16:32.159 --> 00:16:33.200 Towards other people. 00:16:34.539 --> 00:16:36.700 If you think of 3.5 and 3.8. 00:16:36.779 --> 00:16:38.360 Which are those sin lists. 00:16:38.879 --> 00:16:40.379 They have a posture towards people. 00:16:40.820 --> 00:16:42.720 And when you are the controlling center. 00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:43.940 Of your own life. 00:16:44.279 --> 00:16:46.679 You will see people as a means to your end. 00:16:47.659 --> 00:16:48.460 But here. 00:16:48.620 --> 00:16:49.840 When you put on Christ. 00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:52.080 When you remember who you are. 00:16:52.080 --> 00:16:55.440 You don't see people as a means to your own end. 00:16:55.520 --> 00:17:00.780 You start seeing people as a means to Christ's glorifying end. 00:17:00.779 --> 00:17:09.160 The second thing I want you to notice about this list is. 00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:12.519 It's profile. 00:17:15.700 --> 00:17:17.440 Boy this looks like somebody I know. 00:17:19.440 --> 00:17:20.740 I know this person. 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:24.480 This is a profile of Jesus. 00:17:26.440 --> 00:17:28.000 Just like the fruit of the spirit. 00:17:28.099 --> 00:17:28.859 In Galatians 5. 00:17:28.940 --> 00:17:29.819 22 and 23. 00:17:31.660 --> 00:17:32.480 Compassionate hearts. 00:17:32.599 --> 00:17:35.599 Remember Jesus looked on the crowds. 00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:36.819 Who were harassed and helpless. 00:17:36.980 --> 00:17:38.399 Like sheep without a shepherd. 00:17:38.819 --> 00:17:41.319 And he had compassion on them. 00:17:41.500 --> 00:17:42.139 Deeply moved. 00:17:43.099 --> 00:17:43.579 Kindness. 00:17:44.519 --> 00:17:46.339 The greatest do good. 00:17:46.680 --> 00:17:47.160 Kindness. 00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:48.460 The Lord Jesus did. 00:17:48.619 --> 00:17:50.619 Was to die in our place. 00:17:50.619 --> 00:17:52.039 How about that for do good? 00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:53.740 Humility. 00:17:54.259 --> 00:17:55.079 Philippians 2. 00:17:55.799 --> 00:17:57.399 Paul uses Jesus' example. 00:17:57.519 --> 00:17:59.059 Of becoming a servant for us. 00:17:59.059 --> 00:18:01.419 To consider others better than ourselves. 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:03.159 Meekness. 00:18:03.339 --> 00:18:04.759 Remember what Jesus said in Matthew 11? 00:18:05.879 --> 00:18:07.740 All you who are weary and heavy laden. 00:18:07.919 --> 00:18:08.399 Come to me. 00:18:09.659 --> 00:18:10.960 Remember that gives the reason why. 00:18:12.019 --> 00:18:13.539 Because I'm gentle and lowly. 00:18:15.879 --> 00:18:16.279 Tender. 00:18:17.679 --> 00:18:18.419 Come to me. 00:18:18.420 --> 00:18:22.400 And man is he patient. 00:18:23.500 --> 00:18:25.480 He's got a long fuse. 00:18:25.779 --> 00:18:26.980 If you're reading the gospels. 00:18:27.200 --> 00:18:31.940 And you are seeing how Jesus responds to his disciples over and over again. 00:18:32.039 --> 00:18:33.300 Who just don't get it. 00:18:34.360 --> 00:18:35.420 He's patient. 00:18:37.360 --> 00:18:38.920 Remember Exodus 34. 00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:39.920 Slow. 00:18:39.920 --> 00:18:40.920 Slow. 00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:44.120 To anger. 00:18:45.360 --> 00:18:48.240 But abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness. 00:18:49.420 --> 00:18:51.000 This is a Jesus profile. 00:18:52.060 --> 00:18:53.180 And that's why I say. 00:18:54.259 --> 00:18:55.960 We are to put on Christ. 00:18:57.019 --> 00:18:59.800 We are to put on Christ likeness. 00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:02.899 But in verse 14. 00:19:03.839 --> 00:19:05.539 We have a super virtue. 00:19:08.539 --> 00:19:09.879 Look at verse 14. 00:19:10.879 --> 00:19:13.539 And above all these put on love. 00:19:13.700 --> 00:19:14.980 Which binds everything together. 00:19:15.220 --> 00:19:16.899 In perfect harmony. 00:19:17.339 --> 00:19:19.879 Most scholars think that the apostle Paul has in mind. 00:19:20.139 --> 00:19:21.879 Some kind of overcoat. 00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:26.940 That this love. 00:19:27.540 --> 00:19:29.380 It lays over. 00:19:29.800 --> 00:19:31.960 And binds it all together. 00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:35.140 So it is a loving compassion. 00:19:36.320 --> 00:19:38.680 So it is a loving kindness. 00:19:39.320 --> 00:19:42.100 It is love manifested in humility. 00:19:42.720 --> 00:19:44.940 Love manifested in meekness. 00:19:45.420 --> 00:19:48.700 Love for others manifested in patience. 00:19:50.580 --> 00:19:51.500 It's a Jesus. 00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:52.240 Love. 00:19:54.820 --> 00:19:56.580 There's something else about this love. 00:19:56.580 --> 00:19:57.540 That you need to understand. 00:19:58.080 --> 00:20:00.140 And the first readers of this. 00:20:00.220 --> 00:20:00.920 In the original language. 00:20:01.100 --> 00:20:02.240 Would have heard it right away. 00:20:03.540 --> 00:20:04.620 In our version. 00:20:04.780 --> 00:20:05.260 We read this. 00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:07.940 And above all these put on love. 00:20:08.580 --> 00:20:10.000 In the original language. 00:20:10.140 --> 00:20:10.860 It reads like this. 00:20:12.380 --> 00:20:15.360 And above all these put on the love. 00:20:16.420 --> 00:20:17.800 The love. 00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:19.560 And when. 00:20:19.720 --> 00:20:21.280 If you were in Colossi hearing that. 00:20:21.360 --> 00:20:21.660 You'd be like. 00:20:21.660 --> 00:20:22.440 What is the love? 00:20:22.820 --> 00:20:23.279 And you're like. 00:20:23.360 --> 00:20:24.040 Oh the love. 00:20:26.360 --> 00:20:27.160 John 13. 00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:27.840 Love. 00:20:28.900 --> 00:20:29.519 John 13. 00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:30.360 34 and 35. 00:20:30.560 --> 00:20:30.779 Love. 00:20:31.400 --> 00:20:32.080 The new commandment. 00:20:32.120 --> 00:20:32.360 Love. 00:20:33.019 --> 00:20:33.880 Where Jesus says. 00:20:34.200 --> 00:20:34.840 To his disciples. 00:20:34.960 --> 00:20:35.440 A new commandment. 00:20:35.500 --> 00:20:36.040 I give to you. 00:20:36.100 --> 00:20:36.960 That you love one another. 00:20:37.220 -->

--> 00:20:42.840 That you are my disciples. 00:20:43.040 --> 00:20:44.560 If you have love for one another. 00:20:44.820 --> 00:20:45.820 It's that love. 00:20:45.819 --> 00:20:46.319 Love.

together. 00:20:54.799 --> 00:20:56.220 As one body. 00:20:57.439 --> 00:20:58.579 Uniting us. 00:20:59.879 --> 00:21:00.779 Joined together. 00:21:00.980 --> 00:21:02.379 Bound up together.

So that we can don. 00:21:16.500 --> 00:21:18.140 The Christ wear. 00:21:18.799 --> 00:21:20.160 The Christ robes. 00:21:20.920 --> 00:21:22.160 Overcoat of love. 00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:25.680 That's

who you are. 00:22:10.139 --> 00:22:11.039 Is united to Christ. 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:11.519 And his death. 00:22:11.579 --> 00:22:12.000 And resurrection. 00:22:12.519 --> 00:22:13.359 So you dress. 00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:14.240 Accordingly. 00:22:15.480 --> 00:22:16.980 You put Jesus on. 00:22:18.939 --> 00:22:20.200 You wear Christ. 00:22:20.319 --> 00:22:21.259 Now the question becomes. 00:22:21.460 --> 00:22:22.419 How do I do that Mike? 00:22:23.019 --> 00:22:24.179 How do I put on Jesus? 00:22:25.379 --> 00:22:26.279 Flip in your Bible. 00:22:26.439 --> 00:22:27.059 There are two ways. 00:22:27.519 --> 00:22:29.079 I want to encourage you this morning. 00:22:29.079 --> 00:22:29.980 Two ways. 00:22:30.199 --> 00:22:30.500 First. 00:22:31.439 --> 00:22:33.500 Look at 2 Corinthians 3.18. 00:22:35.059 --> 00:22:36.259 Here's the first way. 00:22:36.899 --> 00:22:37.939 You put on Christ. 00:22:39.579 --> 00:22:41.199 You behold him. 00:22:43.759 --> 00:22:45.279 And we all. 00:22:45.859 --> 00:22:47.299 With unveiled face. 00:22:48.179 --> 00:22:50.859 Beholding the glory of the Lord. 00:22:51.000 --> 00:22:52.019 That's reference to Jesus. 00:22:52.019 --> 00:22:52.139 Jesus. 00:22:53.139 --> 00:22:56.799 Are being transformed. 00:22:57.799 --> 00:22:58.240 From. 00:22:59.839 --> 00:23:01.460 Into the same image. 00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:03.200 From one degree of glory to another. 00:23:03.740 --> 00:23:05.059 For this comes from the Lord. 00:23:05.139 --> 00:23:06.000 Who is the spirit. 00:23:06.099 --> 00:23:07.180 So do you see what's going on there? 00:23:08.319 --> 00:23:10.200 When you behold the Lord Jesus Christ. 00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:11.319 In the pages of scripture. 00:23:11.980 --> 00:23:12.400 And you're like. 00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:13.900 Man he is wonderful and glorious. 00:23:14.599 --> 00:23:15.839 The spirit is at work. 00:23:16.059 --> 00:23:17.599 Seeking to transform you. 00:23:17.599 --> 00:23:18.460 Into his image. 00:23:18.460 --> 00:23:18.539 Age. 00:23:20.059 --> 00:23:21.220 You behold him. 00:23:21.440 --> 00:23:22.420 And become like him. 00:23:22.539 --> 00:23:24.380 As an outworking of the spirit's ministry. 00:23:24.380 --> 00:23:24.819 In our life. 00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:25.440 It's beautiful. 00:23:27.259 --> 00:23:28.740 This ends up being a case. 00:23:28.740 --> 00:23:29.880 For morning devotions. 00:23:31.279 --> 00:23:32.860 You don't have morning devotions. 00:23:32.860 --> 00:23:34.259 In order to have morning devotions. 00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:36.000 We have morning devotions. 00:23:36.100 --> 00:23:37.600 We get our noses in our Bibles. 00:23:37.600 --> 00:23:38.519 To behold Jesus. 00:23:39.000 --> 00:23:40.059 And become like him. 00:23:40.059 --> 00:23:42.960 That's why we have morning devotions. 00:23:44.419 --> 00:23:45.700 To commune with him. 00:23:46.019 --> 00:23:47.059 To become like him. 00:23:47.500 --> 00:23:49.220 To be transformed into his image. 00:23:49.500 --> 00:23:51.259 That's what I think is going on in verse 10. 00:23:52.379 --> 00:23:53.960 And have put on the new self. 00:23:54.480 --> 00:23:55.919 Which is being renewed. 00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:57.419 In knowledge. 00:23:57.759 --> 00:23:59.220 After the image. 00:23:59.779 --> 00:24:00.980 Of its creator. 00:24:01.139 --> 00:24:02.119 A reference to Jesus. 00:24:03.819 --> 00:24:05.299 We are being renewed. 00:24:05.899 --> 00:24:06.740 In the knowledge. 00:24:06.740 --> 00:24:07.799 Of who he is. 00:24:08.220 --> 00:24:08.960 And become like him. 00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:10.559 Our characters. 00:24:10.860 --> 00:24:12.079 We put on the Christ wear. 00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:15.720 The second way. 00:24:16.140 --> 00:24:17.440 We put on Christ. 00:24:19.480 --> 00:24:20.920 Is to ask God. 00:24:20.980 --> 00:24:21.880 To fill us. 00:24:22.220 --> 00:24:23.460 With his spirit. 00:24:24.340 --> 00:24:24.720 Daily. 00:24:26.539 --> 00:24:27.799 The Holy Spirit. 00:24:27.960 --> 00:24:29.100 We know this from John 16. 00:24:29.160 --> 00:24:29.440 14. 00:24:29.559 --> 00:24:30.579 Jesus himself said. 00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:32.500 He will glorify me. 00:24:34.000 --> 00:24:35.039 And so when we. 00:24:35.240 --> 00:24:36.059 Ask the father. 00:24:36.180 --> 00:24:37.220 To pour out his spirit. 00:24:37.460 --> 00:24:38.220 Upon us. 00:24:38.220 --> 00:24:40.000 We should be expecting. 00:24:40.400 --> 00:24:41.920 Christ to be magnified. 00:24:41.920 --> 00:24:42.460 In our midst. 00:24:43.000 --> 00:24:44.360 To be spotlighted. 00:24:44.940 --> 00:24:45.680 And so a prayer. 00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:47.039 Goes like something like this. 00:24:47.079 --> 00:24:47.940 You open up your Bible. 00:24:48.360 --> 00:24:49.460 You turn to some kind of. 00:24:49.700 --> 00:24:50.799 Passage in the Gospels. 00:24:51.019 --> 00:24:51.380 And you're like. 00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:52.779 Father would you pour out your spirit. 00:24:53.059 --> 00:24:53.759 On me. 00:24:54.100 --> 00:24:54.720 So that I can. 00:24:54.779 --> 00:24:55.460 I can behold. 00:24:55.600 --> 00:24:56.660 And become like Christ. 00:24:58.559 --> 00:24:59.779 To put off. 00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:00.860 The old self. 00:25:01.180 --> 00:25:02.120 To put on. 00:25:02.339 --> 00:25:02.980 The Christ. 00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:03.460 Like. 00:25:03.660 --> 00:25:04.019 Self. 00:25:04.120 --> 00:25:04.640 New self. 00:25:04.640 --> 00:25:04.700 And. 00:25:04.700 --> 00:25:04.740 The old self. 00:25:04.740 --> 00:25:04.779 The old self. 00:25:04.779 --> 00:25:06.700 The old self. 00:25:06.700 --> 00:25:07.700 The old self. 00:25:07.700 --> 00:25:09.299 You know what that is? 00:25:12.100 --> 00:25:13.880 It's the Holy Spirit. 00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:15.779 Tuning us. 00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:20.720 For Christocentric resonance. 00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.059 Inclining our hearts to Christ. 00:25:25.720 --> 00:25:28.039 Conforming us to Christ. 00:25:28.039 --> 00:25:28.180 Christ. 00:25:29.899 --> 00:25:31.440 That Christ would resonate. 00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:32.359 Among us. 00:25:34.500 --> 00:25:35.539 So when each of us. 00:25:35.619 --> 00:25:36.759 Is remembering who we are. 00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:37.920 And each of us. 00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:39.119 Is putting on Christ. 00:25:39.240 --> 00:25:40.519 Dress accordingly believer. 00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:43.180 Then we will resonate. 00:25:43.599 --> 00:25:44.559 Christ together. 00:25:46.259 --> 00:25:47.019 In 15. 00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:47.859 Verses 15. 00:25:47.940 --> 00:25:48.240 16. 00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:48.819 And 17. 00:25:50.220 --> 00:25:50.619 Paul. 00:25:50.960 --> 00:25:52.319 Paul exhorts us. 00:25:53.319 --> 00:25:54.779 To resonate Christ. 00:25:55.180 --> 00:25:56.039 Along three lines. 00:25:56.039 --> 00:25:58.440 The first one. 00:25:58.440 --> 00:25:59.379 Has to do with peace. 00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:00.500 Look at verse 15. 00:26:02.019 --> 00:26:02.500 And he let. 00:26:02.899 --> 00:26:04.119 And let the peace of Christ. 00:26:04.240 --> 00:26:04.899 Rule in your hearts. 00:26:05.059 --> 00:26:05.399 To which. 00:26:05.799 --> 00:26:06.480 Indeed you were called. 00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:07.139 In one body. 00:26:07.339 --> 00:26:07.980 And be thankful. 00:26:09.839 --> 00:26:10.519 First notice. 00:26:10.619 --> 00:26:11.559 The plural hearts. 00:26:13.319 --> 00:26:14.559 He's talking to the whole church. 00:26:15.139 --> 00:26:15.460 Y'alls. 00:26:15.619 --> 00:26:15.980 Hearts. 00:26:17.579 --> 00:26:18.559 The peace of Christ. 00:26:18.659 --> 00:26:19.659 Is to be resonating. 00:26:19.779 --> 00:26:20.579 In each of our hearts. 00:26:20.639 --> 00:26:21.480 So when we come together. 00:26:21.639 --> 00:26:21.980 It resonates. 00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:23.500 In all of our hearts. 00:26:23.500 --> 00:26:28.460 We each are to be ruled. 00:26:28.579 --> 00:26:29.700 By the peace of Christ. 00:26:30.660 --> 00:26:31.700 Along two dimensions. 00:26:32.779 --> 00:26:33.200 First. 00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:34.220 It is vertical. 00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:36.000 The peace. 00:26:36.420 --> 00:26:37.059 Of Christ. 00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:38.059 Which he has brought. 00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:38.779 As a result. 00:26:39.019 --> 00:26:40.400 Of bearing God's wrath. 00:26:40.519 --> 00:26:41.740 For each of our sins. 00:26:41.980 --> 00:26:42.619 And therefore. 00:26:43.079 --> 00:26:43.619 Making. 00:26:44.019 --> 00:26:44.660 Fully forgiving. 00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:45.140 Us. 00:26:47.140 --> 00:26:47.700 Peace. 00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:49.299 With God. 00:26:51.700 --> 00:26:53.079 No more condemnation. 00:26:53.500 --> 00:26:55.119 For those who are in Christ Jesus. 00:26:56.920 --> 00:26:58.799 He brings about a vertical peace. 00:26:59.859 --> 00:27:01.079 But he also. 00:27:01.420 --> 00:27:02.000 Has accomplished. 00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:04.539 A horizontal peace. 00:27:07.420 --> 00:27:08.599 Peace with each other. 00:27:11.000 --> 00:27:12.119 Christ's death. 00:27:12.460 --> 00:27:14.019 Purchased our peace. 00:27:14.339 --> 00:27:15.059 Brothers and sisters. 00:27:16.660 --> 00:27:17.880 It's already ours. 00:27:18.880 --> 00:27:20.039 We maintain it. 00:27:20.039 --> 00:27:23.399 He is our peace. 00:27:25.700 --> 00:27:27.420 Regardless of your Democrat or Republican. 00:27:28.319 --> 00:27:29.519 Regardless of your black or white. 00:27:30.399 --> 00:27:32.000 Regardless of your educated, non-educated. 00:27:32.359 --> 00:27:33.339 Regardless of where you're living. 00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:35.000 Regardless of what your interests are. 00:27:35.559 --> 00:27:37.299 We're united together in Christ. 00:27:37.460 --> 00:27:38.700 Bound up together. 00:27:39.700 --> 00:27:40.559 Through Christ. 00:27:40.639 --> 00:27:41.159 At peace. 00:27:41.319 --> 00:27:41.920 Through Christ. 00:27:41.920 --> 00:27:41.940 Through Christ. 00:27:41.940 --> 00:27:44.559 And the primary way we. 00:27:46.160 --> 00:27:47.200 Experience that peace. 00:27:48.279 --> 00:27:49.460 Is in verse 13. 00:27:54.840 --> 00:27:55.980 Bearing with one another. 00:27:57.400 --> 00:27:59.279 And if one has a complaint against another. 00:27:59.519 --> 00:28:00.380 Forgiving each other. 00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:02.299 As the Lord has forgiven you. 00:28:02.400 --> 00:28:03.720 So you also must forgive. 00:28:03.820 --> 00:28:04.400 To what end? 00:28:04.580 --> 00:28:05.759 To maintain the peace. 00:28:06.380 --> 00:28:06.940 We don't avoid. 00:28:08.360 --> 00:28:08.640 Sin. 00:28:08.860 --> 00:28:09.539 In our church. 00:28:09.539 --> 00:28:11.920 We deal with it accordingly. 00:28:14.539 --> 00:28:17.200 Whether that means asking a brother or sister. 00:28:17.200 --> 00:28:18.240 To forgive you. 00:28:18.440 --> 00:28:19.839 For sin that you committed. 00:28:20.279 --> 00:28:22.399 Or forgiving a brother or sister. 00:28:22.519 --> 00:28:23.720 Who has sinned against you. 00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:26.420 These are active. 00:28:26.639 --> 00:28:27.960 Dynamic categories. 00:28:28.319 --> 00:28:29.839 That take place within a church. 00:28:29.980 --> 00:28:30.899 It's normal. 00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:34.519 This is how we walk in a manner. 00:28:34.619 --> 00:28:35.399 Worthy of the Lord. 00:28:35.400 --> 00:28:35.480 Lord. 00:28:37.940 --> 00:28:39.720 Just as the Lord has forgiven you. 00:28:39.800 --> 00:28:40.960 So also you must forgive. 00:28:41.080 --> 00:28:42.900 And when we are forgiving each other. 00:28:42.900 --> 00:28:44.320 As Christ has forgiven us. 00:28:44.460 --> 00:28:45.660 The peace of Christ. 00:28:46.060 --> 00:28:47.019 Rules us. 00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:50.580 And when the peace of Christ. 00:28:50.740 --> 00:28:51.240 Rules us. 00:28:51.360 --> 00:28:52.259 There will be some. 00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:53.759 Christocentric. 00:28:54.220 --> 00:28:54.640 Resonance. 00:28:54.800 --> 00:28:55.400 Among us. 00:28:55.519 --> 00:28:56.980 We're going to be on the same frequency. 00:28:59.800 --> 00:29:00.940 We're going to be saying things like. 00:29:01.060 --> 00:29:01.220 Isn't. 00:29:01.660 --> 00:29:02.780 Isn't God so good. 00:29:02.779 --> 00:29:05.119 That we can forgive each other freely. 00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:06.220 And not hold grudges. 00:29:07.339 --> 00:29:08.619 Unlike the rest. 00:29:09.119 --> 00:29:09.819 Of the world. 00:29:12.619 --> 00:29:13.639 One body gang. 00:29:14.899 --> 00:29:15.720 One body. 00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:19.160 United by this peace. 00:29:19.579 --> 00:29:20.000 This. 00:29:20.839 --> 00:29:22.319 The second line. 00:29:22.660 --> 00:29:23.500 The second way. 00:29:23.660 --> 00:29:24.599 We resonate Christ. 00:29:24.859 --> 00:29:25.460 With one another. 00:29:25.639 --> 00:29:26.359 Is in verse 16. 00:29:27.960 --> 00:29:29.019 Let the word of Christ. 00:29:29.119 --> 00:29:29.899 Dwell in you richly. 00:29:29.980 --> 00:29:31.299 Teaching and admonishing one another. 00:29:31.299 --> 00:29:31.960 In all wisdom. 00:29:32.500 --> 00:29:33.940 Singing psalms and hymns. 00:29:33.980 --> 00:29:34.779 And spiritual songs. 00:29:34.859 --> 00:29:35.940 With thankfulness in your hearts. 00:29:36.059 --> 00:29:36.579 To God. 00:29:38.019 --> 00:29:40.059 We resonate the word of Christ together. 00:29:40.180 --> 00:29:41.740 We resonate Christ's peace together. 00:29:42.099 --> 00:29:44.619 We resonate the word of Christ together. 00:29:44.759 --> 00:29:45.879 The word of Christ. 00:29:45.980 --> 00:29:47.639 Is the truth about Christ. 00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:49.779 It's the truth of who he is. 00:29:49.859 --> 00:29:50.559 What he's done. 00:29:50.680 --> 00:29:51.440 What he's doing. 00:29:51.720 --> 00:29:52.940 What he will be doing. 00:29:53.220 --> 00:29:54.139 It's all of that. 00:29:54.700 --> 00:29:55.379 The word of Christ. 00:29:55.480 --> 00:29:56.099 Another word for it. 00:29:56.099 --> 00:29:56.599 Is the gospel. 00:29:57.500 --> 00:29:58.500 The good news. 00:29:58.500 --> 00:29:59.200 Of Jesus. 00:29:59.980 --> 00:30:00.900 Who he is. 00:30:01.180 --> 00:30:01.819 What he's doing. 00:30:03.099 --> 00:30:05.420 It's a body of facts. 00:30:05.980 --> 00:30:06.460 Truth. 00:30:07.960 --> 00:30:09.240 And it's got to. 00:30:10.019 --> 00:30:11.700 Dwell richly among us. 00:30:12.859 --> 00:30:13.900 That word dwell. 00:30:14.180 --> 00:30:15.240 It means to like. 00:30:15.380 --> 00:30:16.259 Take up residence. 00:30:19.660 --> 00:30:21.180 Jesus occupying. 00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:22.339 All the different rooms. 00:30:22.420 --> 00:30:23.019 Of your house. 00:30:23.859 --> 00:30:25.059 Jesus occupying. 00:30:25.200 --> 00:30:26.180 The truth of Jesus. 00:30:26.180 --> 00:30:28.120 Is occupying every room. 00:30:28.120 --> 00:30:28.860 In this building. 00:30:28.860 --> 00:30:29.660 Of our church. 00:30:32.980 --> 00:30:34.759 The truth about Christ. 00:30:35.840 --> 00:30:36.200 Dwelling. 00:30:37.779 --> 00:30:38.380 And where the. 00:30:38.480 --> 00:30:40.240 The truth of Christ is. 00:30:40.420 --> 00:30:41.580 Christ is. 00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:43.039 Dwelling. 00:30:47.380 --> 00:30:48.180 And you notice. 00:30:48.420 --> 00:30:49.440 It dwells a certain way. 00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:52.279 Richly. 00:30:54.100 --> 00:30:55.039 Big payoff. 00:30:56.180 --> 00:30:57.019 Big dividends. 00:30:58.060 --> 00:30:58.799 Here's what I think. 00:30:58.860 --> 00:30:59.580 Is being said there. 00:31:00.580 --> 00:31:01.440 When the truth. 00:31:01.700 --> 00:31:02.539 Of Christ. 00:31:03.100 --> 00:31:03.880 And who he is. 00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:04.640 And what he's doing. 00:31:04.940 --> 00:31:06.340 Is dwelling among a people. 00:31:06.420 --> 00:31:07.440 Do you know what people are doing? 00:31:10.340 --> 00:31:11.240 Delighting in him. 00:31:13.340 --> 00:31:14.080 Treasuring him. 00:31:14.200 --> 00:31:15.019 Above all else. 00:31:16.320 --> 00:31:17.740 There's no one like you. 00:31:18.120 --> 00:31:19.519 I'll give my life for you. 00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:20.640 You're worth it all. 00:31:20.900 --> 00:31:22.640 And when it's just not one guy saying it. 00:31:22.740 --> 00:31:24.140 But 200 people saying it. 00:31:24.140 --> 00:31:26.900 You've got Christocentric resonance. 00:31:29.140 --> 00:31:30.340 When he is. 00:31:30.600 --> 00:31:32.380 Our all consuming passion. 00:31:35.680 --> 00:31:36.160 Now. 00:31:36.300 --> 00:31:37.020 How does that happen? 00:31:37.580 --> 00:31:38.480 How does the word. 00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:39.960 The truth of Christ. 00:31:40.080 --> 00:31:41.160 Dwell richly among us. 00:31:41.220 --> 00:31:42.480 Well he points to a couple things here. 00:31:43.040 --> 00:31:44.520 Teaching and admonishing. 00:31:44.740 --> 00:31:46.020 Teaching is simply instructing. 00:31:46.060 --> 00:31:46.940 Like what we do here. 00:31:47.920 --> 00:31:49.040 Who Jesus is. 00:31:49.039 --> 00:31:50.440 Think of. 00:31:51.559 --> 00:31:52.379 Colossians 1. 00:31:52.460 --> 00:31:53.279 15 through 20. 00:31:54.420 --> 00:31:55.240 The Lord Jesus. 00:31:55.420 --> 00:31:57.299 As the firstborn of creation. 00:31:57.559 --> 00:31:58.639 And the firstborn from the dead. 00:31:58.720 --> 00:31:59.740 He's the king of all. 00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:01.019 That's. 00:32:01.159 --> 00:32:02.000 That's truth. 00:32:02.099 --> 00:32:03.480 That's instruction about Jesus. 00:32:04.839 --> 00:32:05.359 Admonishing. 00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:07.399 Is corrective in nature. 00:32:07.940 --> 00:32:09.379 That's chapter 3 verse 5. 00:32:09.500 --> 00:32:10.779 That's chapter 3 verse 8. 00:32:10.859 --> 00:32:12.319 Where we're told to put stuff off. 00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:13.299 Don't do that. 00:32:13.299 --> 00:32:13.379 That. 00:32:15.379 --> 00:32:16.519 This shows up. 00:32:16.639 --> 00:32:17.859 Both these words show up. 00:32:17.980 --> 00:32:19.039 In 128. 00:32:20.460 --> 00:32:21.299 Him we proclaim. 00:32:21.759 --> 00:32:22.059 Warning. 00:32:22.619 --> 00:32:23.619 Admonishing everyone. 00:32:24.119 --> 00:32:24.960 And teaching. 00:32:25.139 --> 00:32:25.960 Instructing everyone. 00:32:26.059 --> 00:32:26.639 With all wisdom. 00:32:26.940 --> 00:32:28.279 That we may present everyone. 00:32:28.399 --> 00:32:29.039 Mature in Christ. 00:32:29.139 --> 00:32:30.039 The goal is Christ. 00:32:30.839 --> 00:32:31.659 To present people. 00:32:31.740 --> 00:32:32.299 Mature in Christ. 00:32:32.359 --> 00:32:33.539 To move people towards Christ. 00:32:33.659 --> 00:32:35.359 To treasure Christ. 00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:36.559 Above all else. 00:32:40.559 --> 00:32:41.879 And we're seeking to do this. 00:32:41.880 --> 00:32:43.140 In all the different venues. 00:32:43.140 --> 00:32:44.000 Of our life together. 00:32:44.000 --> 00:32:44.620 As a church. 00:32:46.080 --> 00:32:47.020 Whether it's here. 00:32:47.140 --> 00:32:47.780 In the sanctuary. 00:32:47.880 --> 00:32:48.520 On a Sunday morning. 00:32:49.420 --> 00:32:50.440 In the fellowship hall. 00:32:51.600 --> 00:32:52.640 In our kids kings. 00:32:52.880 --> 00:32:53.940 Our kids classrooms. 00:32:54.940 --> 00:32:55.800 You name it. 00:32:55.900 --> 00:32:56.520 Life groups. 00:32:56.820 --> 00:32:57.340 Youth group. 00:32:58.240 --> 00:32:59.200 This is the end. 00:32:59.700 --> 00:33:00.380 This is the aim. 00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:02.100 To lift up Christ. 00:33:03.900 --> 00:33:05.180 We're also told that. 00:33:07.760 --> 00:33:08.660 The word of Christ. 00:33:08.760 --> 00:33:09.740 Was richly among us. 00:33:09.840 --> 00:33:10.320 Through singing. 00:33:10.319 --> 00:33:10.460 Singing. 00:33:12.980 --> 00:33:14.259 Zach's going to come back to this. 00:33:14.299 --> 00:33:14.919 In a couple weeks. 00:33:15.019 --> 00:33:15.980 When he preaches a sermon. 00:33:16.939 --> 00:33:17.740 On worship. 00:33:20.539 --> 00:33:21.419 But we're to sing. 00:33:22.039 --> 00:33:22.899 Psalms and hymns. 00:33:22.939 --> 00:33:23.659 And spiritual songs. 00:33:23.819 --> 00:33:24.579 Aren't you glad. 00:33:24.659 --> 00:33:26.019 That we don't have to be limited. 00:33:26.379 --> 00:33:27.559 To one way. 00:33:27.559 --> 00:33:28.119 Of singing. 00:33:32.119 --> 00:33:33.319 But I just want to take a moment. 00:33:33.319 --> 00:33:35.059 And just to make one point. 00:33:35.059 --> 00:33:40.440 What we sing about. 00:33:40.440 --> 00:33:40.839 Matters. 00:33:43.099 --> 00:33:44.740 The content. 00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:46.119 Of our singing. 00:33:47.039 --> 00:33:47.720 Matters. 00:33:47.720 --> 00:33:50.380 We sing songs. 00:33:50.380 --> 00:33:51.539 We sing songs. 00:33:51.539 --> 00:33:53.660 That are theologically rich. 00:33:54.019 --> 00:33:55.100 Doctrinally robust. 00:33:55.500 --> 00:33:56.680 Musically beautiful. 00:33:57.779 --> 00:33:58.480 Godward. 00:33:58.680 --> 00:33:59.319 Christward. 00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:00.279 In their aim. 00:34:01.059 --> 00:34:01.980 So that. 00:34:02.539 --> 00:34:03.680 The truth of Christ. 00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:05.420 Dwells richly among us. 00:34:06.220 --> 00:34:07.559 We instruct one another. 00:34:09.460 --> 00:34:11.179 One of the implications of that. 00:34:11.280 --> 00:34:11.699 Is this. 00:34:12.320 --> 00:34:13.300 This gathering. 00:34:13.500 --> 00:34:14.220 On a Sunday morning. 00:34:14.219 --> 00:34:17.000 This is one of the primary ways. 00:34:17.899 --> 00:34:19.219 The truth about Christ. 00:34:19.339 --> 00:34:20.539 Dwells richly among us. 00:34:21.319 --> 00:34:22.679 It's why we prioritize it. 00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:25.799 Every aspect of this service. 00:34:26.419 --> 00:34:27.279 Whether it's from the. 00:34:27.519 --> 00:34:29.139 The opening and closing scriptures. 00:34:29.559 --> 00:34:29.799 To the. 00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:32.919 The prayers we pray. 00:34:33.159 --> 00:34:34.219 The songs we sing. 00:34:34.319 --> 00:34:35.359 The sermons we preach. 00:34:35.759 --> 00:34:37.899 Ultimately are to magnify Christ. 00:34:40.959 --> 00:34:42.079 That's why we do this. 00:34:44.219 --> 00:34:46.119 And that you walk out of here. 00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:47.519 Resonating. 00:34:48.519 --> 00:34:49.000 Christ. 00:34:49.939 --> 00:34:51.139 With brothers and sisters. 00:34:51.139 --> 00:34:52.039 Of the same mind. 00:34:53.459 --> 00:34:54.439 Same frequency. 00:34:57.019 --> 00:34:57.459 Strengthened. 00:34:58.759 --> 00:34:59.439 Verse 17. 00:34:59.819 --> 00:35:00.859 We have the last way. 00:35:01.059 --> 00:35:01.179 It's. 00:35:02.379 --> 00:35:03.919 We resonate the name of Christ. 00:35:04.859 --> 00:35:06.339 We resonate the peace of Christ. 00:35:06.459 --> 00:35:07.719 We resonate the word of Christ. 00:35:07.839 --> 00:35:09.539 We resonate the name of Christ. 00:35:10.019 --> 00:35:11.139 In everything that we do. 00:35:11.139 --> 00:35:14.400 It's not about me. 00:35:14.519 --> 00:35:15.579 Making a name for myself. 00:35:16.219 --> 00:35:17.759 It's not about us. 00:35:17.920 --> 00:35:18.940 Making a name for Christ. 00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:19.659 The King Church. 00:35:20.400 --> 00:35:22.059 It's about making much. 00:35:22.059 --> 00:35:22.920 Of the name. 00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:24.339 Of the Lord. 00:35:24.599 --> 00:35:24.920 Jesus. 00:35:26.519 --> 00:35:27.339 In everything. 00:35:27.719 --> 00:35:28.259 Word and deed. 00:35:28.480 --> 00:35:29.019 In everything. 00:35:29.179 --> 00:35:29.819 In everything. 00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:30.599 In everything. 00:35:31.480 --> 00:35:32.559 He becomes our one. 00:35:32.599 --> 00:35:33.299 Consuming passion. 00:35:33.779 --> 00:35:34.779 He's the controlling center. 00:35:34.779 --> 00:35:35.460 Of our life. 00:35:35.639 --> 00:35:37.119 We're pointing people back to him. 00:35:37.179 --> 00:35:37.460 Again. 00:35:37.539 --> 00:35:38.000 And again. 00:35:38.119 --> 00:35:38.539 And again. 00:35:38.539 --> 00:35:40.559 It's all inclusive. 00:35:42.000 --> 00:35:43.000 It's comprehensive. 00:35:44.300 --> 00:35:45.480 Nothing is untouched. 00:35:46.679 --> 00:35:47.960 It's all for his name. 00:35:48.559 --> 00:35:49.219 Do you know what this does? 00:35:50.420 --> 00:35:51.099 You've got. 00:35:51.259 --> 00:35:53.059 A very helpful
