We continue to stress the themes of Colossians: 1) Jesus ALONE is the answer 2) Our hope is heavenly, and produces earthly fruit 3) False teaching is dangerous and everywhere. From verses 10-14 of chapter one, Pastor Nick answers the question "How do we bear fruit?” We should:

1. Realize our limited ability, our lack of qualifications, and our need of rescue and forgiveness.
2. Be strengthened according to HIS glorious might.
3. Endure with patience
4. Give thanks joyfully
5. Recognize who qualifies, rescues, transfers, redeems and forgives

Additional Reading: John 17, 1 Peter 1-2, Acts 1:1-8

We encourage you to take 30 minutes each week to read through the whole letter to the Colossians as we continue to look at each verse during our gatherings
