Finding Your Story in Christ

Walking in the Mystery

Paul's final section of the letter spends considerable time reporting on news of mutual relationships. We can understand the importance of being connected with the body of believers around the world and the various works they are engaged in. How do we view our participation in the community of PBC and our partnership with others around the world?

Scripture References: Colossians 4:7-18

From Series: "Walking in the Mystery"

As we continue the series in Colossians, we see the practical application of what it means to worship the cosmic and yet personal Christ that was introduced in the first section. This section takes the mystery of who Christ is and applies it to the lives of a community of faith. Instead of pursuing some other kind of mystery, they are called to dive into the mystery of Christ and watch how it transforms every aspect of their lives. There are particular applications to community life, legalism, character, family, professional life, religious expression, and more. This is the beauty of life with Christ: we worship a cosmic Christ who is far outside the realm of our normal lives and yet that very worship completely transforms the day to day life that we live in this world.
