It’s time to take our eyes off of the shadows (the fake) and focus our eyes on Jesus (the real). Listen as Pastor Jeremy teaches from Colossians 2:16-23 about the shadows to avoid and the substance to pursue:
1. SHADOWS
- (v. 18) Mysticism – Watch out for those who downplay Jesus Christ or emphasize external spiritual experiences or angels instead of the person of Jesus Christ.
- (v. 16) Legalism – We want our focus to be on Christ instead trying to be justified by our own works and deeds.
2. SUBSTANCE
- (v. 17) – Hold fast to Jesus. Reality is found in Christ.
- Find your identity, worth, meaning, purpose, joy and confidence in Him and Him alone.
