Helping through Prayer

2 Corinthians 1:8-11 It is a joy to have this holy privilege and opportunity to bring the word to you this morning. And the text that we’re going to be in today is in the 2 Corinthians. If you want to turn there, we’re going to be in 2 Corinthians chapter 1. And I’m just going to begin reading where we covered the last time I preached, starting in verse 3, and we’re going to go all the way through…

The Gracious Governance of Christ’s Peace

Colossians 3:15 Well, we are returning to the study of Paul’s letter to the Colossians, so you can turn to Colossians chapter 3, as today we consider a single verse, Colossians 3:15, “And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body, and be thankful.” Consideration of that single verse is going to occupy us for the next hour, and it’s also going to take us into our time of communion…

Colossians 3:12 Well, we are working our way through Paul’s letter to the Colossians in our study of God’s Word and we are in the third chapter, Colossians 3, verse 12, and you’ll want to turn there in your Bibles, Colossians 3:12. The past two weeks that we’ve been in the study of Colossians, I would just say admittedly, I think they have been unpleasant.
