Would You Care To Make That A Christ Supreme?

10-23-2016

You can go to McDonald’s and get a regular sized order of fries.  But, if you want, you can super-size your order.  When you super-size you are just getting more of the same thing, more fries.  And when you go to Taco Bell, you can buy a regular taco.  But, if you want, you can get a taco supreme.  A taco supreme has been upgraded qualitatively, having more ingredients, making it better.  In the Christian life you have the same option.  When you come to Christ you can make a qualitative change.  Jesus is qualitatively different.  He is the Supreme One.  So the title of this message is, “Would You Care to Make that a Christ Supreme?”

Prized Possessions

10-16-2016

Two weeks ago we started a new series in the book of Colossians called “Diamond” because that is what God is doing in your life.  God is making diamonds out of us as Christians.  We all have prized possessions.  A prized possession is something that is your pride and joy, your treasure, or your obsession.  They come in many forms.  Your prized possession may be some item that was passed down to you from a relative, your physical appearance, your job, or your pet.  But every prized possession that we own or identify with is temporary.  We will not always have it.  So what do I have as a Christian that I cannot lose?

From God With Love

10-02-2016

Diamonds are formed at great depths in the Earth under great temperature and pressure.  They are the hardest natural material known, and as such, they are not given to impurities.  This causes them to be very valuable.  Diamonds are also useful due to their durability.  That is what we are to be to Christ: valuable and useful.  We need to have spiritual depth who can go through the great pressures of life and allow those pressures to make us more valuable.  We are not to be subject to the impurities of life.  And we are to be people that are useful to Jesus Christ.  That is what the book of Colossians is about.
