Colossians 2:2-7

Infinitum is a way of life centered on following Jesus by loving God and loving others through an emphasis on the habits and disciplines of surrender, generosity, and mission. We aim to see the Bible and also the world through these Jesus-colored lenses. This plan inspects Colossians 2.

The book of Colossians has a lot to say about how the gospel should shape our chosen vocation. Over the next four days, we will look at a few key passages in this beloved book, unpacking how Paul’s words should impact the work we do each day.

While imprisoned in Rome, Paul warns believers to remain vigilant against false teaching by beautifully expounding on the cosmic Person of Christ. Jesus is “the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in everything He might be preeminent” (Colossians 1:18). In response to Christ’s preeminence, Paul commands his readers to “seek the things that are above where Christ is…and not on the things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:1-2).

The 4 Living Creatures mentioned in the Bible depict the glorious characteristics of Jesus that we must possess to be effective Christians. As we examine the nature of the lion, you will learn how to exhibit the attributes that bring about efficacy in your spiritual life.
