Bible Reading: Col. 1: 15 - 23
Topic: Who Is Jesus Christ?
Consider these important
attributes of Christ
1. He is the Image of the Invisible God (v. 15); that is the exact
representation of God (Heb. 1: 3; John 14: 9)
2. He is the First born over all creation (v. 16), the Unique Son
of God
3. He created all things for Himself (v. 16)
4. He existed before all creation and sustains the universe (v.
17)
5. He is the Head of the Church (v. 18)
6. He has Pre-eminence in everything, being the First to rise from
the dead (v. 18)
7. The Fullness of the Godhead dwells in Him (v. 19)
8. God reconciles everything to Himself through Christ (vs. 20 -
22)
Reflect on Who Christ is.
Do people see Christ when
they look at you?
The Holy Spirit lives in you to conform you into His Image (Ro. 8: 29)
The Holy Spirit lives in you to conform you into His Image (Ro. 8: 29)
Realize that you were
created by Christ for Himself; therefore live for Him and let Him have
pre-eminence in your life.
If you have not been
reconciled to God, repent of your sins and ask Jesus to come into your life now
Prayer
Almighty Father, may You
reveal Jesus to me and help me obey Him always, Amen.
Memory Verse Col. 1: 16
"For by Him were all
things created, that are in heaven and that are in earth, visible and
invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers;
all things were created by Him and for Him."
