Journey Of Life Lutheran Church

Paul writes the letter to the Colossians to Christians who are coming under the influence of two heresies. First, the Judaizers who want to add the entire Jewish Law to the Christian faith. Second, and more prominently in this letter, the Gnostics, who have intellectualized and twisted the Christian faith. In the text for this week, and in this message based on Colossians 1:13-23, the full and complete identity and work of Jesus Christ is set forth as the uncompromisable core of the Christian faith
