Continuing in our journey through the book of Colossians, Camilo Buchanan teaches that our insatiable desire to be full can only be satisfied through Christ. Instead of being malnourished from striving, hustling, or looking for enlightenment through things of this world, we are encouraged to fill up on Him instead.
Key Takeaway
You can look for everything in the world to satisfy you, but you're going to stay hungry without Him. He is the only one who can fully satisfy you.
- Do you know who you have in Jesus? We have received Christ Jesus, the Lord. God incarnate.
- Deceit wants to take you captive and bring you back before you receive Jesus through persuasive words. He wants you to stop trusting in God and instead trust in Him.
- The logic of you is empty, but Jesus is full. People don't complete you...Jesus does. If you aren't full, it's because of your diet.
- We want Jesus plus other things like legalism. Legalism may look like judging others because of your own spiritual discipline.
- Some of us want to be spiritual without the Spirit.
- In Jesus is actual wisdom, not just the appearance of it.
- Sin does not make you bad; it makes you dead. You were dead in your sins, but Jesus made you alive by forgiving you and taking away the requirement against you.
