| 0:00.0 | Good morning my friends and welcome back to the morning mindset. I'm so glad you're here |
| 0:07.1 | to get your mind aligned with the truth of God. We are digging into Colossians chapter one. |
| 0:13.1 | We are still in kind of a detour away from John chapter 16. |
| 0:17.9 | And the reason I call it a detour, |
| 0:20.0 | for those of you who are just joining us, |
| 0:22.1 | is that in John 16, Jesus himself was |
| 0:24.3 | pointing out how central he is to the plans of God. And I wanted to expand on that a |
| 0:30.4 | little bit by digging into what some of the other scriptures say about who Jesus is. |
| 0:35.9 | And Colosians chapter one is an ideal place to do that because it goes into great detail |
| 0:42.0 | about who Jesus is. |
| 0:43.3 | In the passage we've just read in Colosians one, |
| 0:46.8 | it goes into the essence of who he is |
| 0:49.6 | and the depths to which he is involved in not only the creation of all that exists, but also the |
| 0:56.4 | sustaining of all that exists. And today, as we're going to look at verses 21 and 22, Paul turns a little bit of a corner and he is going to inform us of the reality of what Jesus has done for us as this great awesome incredible creator and |
| 1:17.5 | sustainer of the universe. That is something that's of great interest to me. |
| 1:21.6 | It needs to be of great interest to me. It needs to be of great interest to |
| 1:24.0 | everyone who claims faith in Jesus Christ because these are truths that |
| 1:28.0 | fundamentally change not just the nature of our relationship with God, but also our understanding of who we are in this created world that he's made. |
| 1:40.0 | All right, let's read the passage and then we're going to dig into it a bit. |
| 1:44.2 | This is Colaitions chapter 1 versus 21 and 22. |
| 1:48.6 | Paul says, and you who once were alienated and hostile in mind doing evil deeds, he has now reconciled in |
| 1:59.2 | his body of flesh by his death in order to present you wholly and blameless and above her |
