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…

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…
