Summary: <p>God With Us: Early Letters, Week 26<br> Living like a Citizen of Heaven</p> <p>Colossians 1&2 were focused on doctrinal issues, particularly related to the supremacy of Christ. Colossians 3&4 focus on “duty” issues, how we are able to live, and should live, in light of our connection to Christ. Here Paul covers many of the same ideas found in Ephesians 4-6, yet with some unique emphases. While Ephesians emphasized the believer’s duty to “walk worthy of your calling” (4:1), Colossians calls believers to “live in light of your true position in Christ” (3:1,2). Ephesians calls us to respond to the many blessings that God has given to us. Colossians calls us to respond to the new position we have as a result of our union with the risen and glorified Lord.</p> <p>This message is part of our God With Us series where Pastor Bob walks us through the entire Bible.</p>
