Die to self? Or count yourself alive?
The Grace Message with Dr. Andrew Farley

info_outlineIn this next installment of our “Complete in Christ” series, we explore redemption, reconciliation, and our full assurance in Christ.
We uncover the mystery Paul refers to and address false teaching and universalism. We also reflect on the practical implications of being complete in Christ and what it means to labor and strive according to God’s power at work within us.
Enjoy!

- Read verse 29 and react to this statement: It’s not legalism to labor and strive according to God’s power at work within me.
- Read Colossians 2:2. In your own words, explain what is “the wealth that comes from the full assurance of understanding.”
