A Daily Christian Duty

Hebrews 3:12-13 We are in Hebrews, Hebrews chapter 3, verses 12 to 19. In this section, as you know from last week, this is a section that we’re in of warning as the pastor is trying to kind of get the attention of his congregation. He’s needing to alert his congregation to the danger of a drift that he is seeing in some of his folks who are leaving the Christian church to return back to the Jewish synagogues. We’ve…

How God Dresses His Elect, Part 2

Colossians 3:13-14 It is a joy to return to our study of Colossians, especially as this week we get to finish what we started last week. So Colossians 3:12, we’ll start there, read, review, and carry on. Colossians 3:12, “So as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience, bearing with one another and graciously forgiving each other. Whoever has a complaint against anyone, just as the Lord graciously forgave…

The Danger of a Hard Heart

Hebrews 3:7-12 All right, so turn in your Bibles to Hebrews chapter 3, we’ve spent some time in the beginning of this chapter. We’re going to move ahead a little bit, but we’ve seen so far in Hebrews chapter 3 that the pastor who is writing this word of exhortation, he compares Jesus and Moses. It was a fascinating section. I’d love to spend more time there, but we’re going to keep moving. But after he does that comparison, contrast…

How God Dresses His Elect, Part 1

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. Unpleasant two weeks in the text as we’ve studied two vice lists and we’ve seen…

Hold Fast to Christ

Hebrews 3:1-6 Hebrews chapter 3, please turn over there for what we’re going to see in this section from verses 1 to 6. This is the pastor comparing and contrasting Jesus with Moses, a couple of points of comparison. And as the pastor goes through and compares Jesus with Moses, you understand that what he’s essentially driving at in this section is to turn his people away from going back to Moses, so to speak, back to the synagogue and…

Shedding Bad Behavior

Colossians 3:8-11 I want to ask you to turn your Bibles to Colossians Chapter 3. We are looking at another vice list this morning, and we’re taking another important step in sanctification. Colossians Chapter 3, the section we’re in is Colossians 3:5 through 11, and last week we saw in Colossians 3:5 what sins we need to put to death, what sins we need to mortify and then verses 6 and 7 gave several reasons why we’re eager to target…

Consider Him

Hebrews 3:1 Well, welcome back everyone. I hope you got some sustenance and some rest and are ready to turn on your brains and get after it here in Hebrews chapter 3. It’s really good to be back to our study of Hebrews tonight and you can open your Bible, see Hebrews 3. I’d like to start tonight by reading this section that we’re going to come into in Hebrews 3:1 to 6. But I want to back up to…

Sin in the Crosshairs

Colossians 3:5-7 We are in Colossians chapter 3. Colossians chapter 3, and it’s a most practical portion on the subject of sanctification. We’re looking at Colossians 3:5 through 11. I’m going to read the text for us as we get started this morning. The whole section goes from Colossians 3:5 to 4:6, but we’re going to focus our attention on this first section, verses 5 through 11, which is about dealing with remaining and indwelling sin in the life of…

The Way of the True Christian

Colossians 3:1-4 Well, please turn your Bibles to Colossians Chapter 3. Paul is turning a corner, here, and preparing us for some practical application. So we’re going to get into some very practical things in the weeks to come in Colossians 3 and following. But he’s turning a corner. This is a hinge point in the letter. And in Colossians 2, the section we just finished, Paul, as you know, was confronting the false teachers that were troubling the Colossian…
