All is not well in Colossae. A heresy is growing that promotes empty ritual, useless asceticism, and false mysticism. In order to encourage the Colossians to hold to the truth, Paul refutes the heresy in a positive way – he shows them who Christ is. Christ as LORD of all gives complete salvation, and He is sufficient for every need. And if Christ is all and in all, then He should be in all we say, do, and think. So Paul encourages the Colossians to pursue a godly lifestyle befitting those whose real life is in Heaven with Christ. Join Pastor Cornelius F. Warren as he teaches. 

We saw in verses 7-18 that Christians are on a team devoted to serve Jesus Christ. Every Christian is to be committed to serving the Lord. The church is not a one-man-show, but a team effort. The team consists of men and women from different ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds. The team is the family of God, with every member being a servant/slave of Jesus Christ. The team is focused on prayer and the Word with the aim of helping every member stand mature in Christ. And, with a healthy dose of reality, we saw that the team has members who often will disappoint us. But, how does the team operate? The final principle is: The team operates in an atmosphere of encouraging each member to become all that God wants him or her to be.

First, there is the goal that each person should become all that God wants him or her to be. Second, the atmosphere in which team members grow is encouragement.
