AND NOW! | Colossians 2: 6 (NLT)

“And now, just as you accepted Christ Jesus as your Lord, you must continue to follow him"

What a passage!

Beloved, now that you are saved – born anew in Christ Jesus; I delight in reminding you that:

Now, you need to let your roots grow down into Him, Jesus - the truth and grace (John 1: 17, Act 20: 32) and your lives be built on Him. In doing that, then, your faith will grow strong in the truth you have been taught about Him, and you will overflow with thankfulness.

Don't let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. Words like, you still need to do some certain things, keep some certain laws before you could be blessed, loved and accepted by God.

In actual fact, we already have been accepted by God through the means of Jesus’ sacrifice not through any self-efforts of ours. However, taking advantage of this freedom to indulge in sin is capitally wrong | See Galatians 5: 13.

Factually, when we came to Christ, we were "circumcised," but not by a physical procedure. Christ performed a spiritual circumcision—the cutting away of our sinful nature. For we were buried with Christ when we were baptized. And with Him we were raised to new life because we trusted the mighty power of God, who raised Christ from the dead.

Dearly beloved, when you were stuck in your old sin-dead life, remember, you were incapable of responding to God. However, God brought you alive — right along with Christ! Think of it! All sins forgiven! The slate wiped clean, that old arrest warrant canceled and nailed to Christ's Cross. He stripped all the spiritual tyrants in the universe of their sham authority at the Cross and marched them naked through the streets.

Therefore, seek to grow in the word of His grace alone and. You will be built up doing that | See Acts 20: 32.

NOTE: All taking from Colossians 2: 6 – 15 (NLT & TM)

NOW, SAY | My roots grow down more and more in knowing Christ and Him alone.

LET’S PRAY | In the Name of Jesus, I grow in the knowledge of Christ on daily bases – AMEN!

ViP | I hope you have been blessed with this message. You also can be a tool to bless others by SHARING it. Today, be a blessing.

Grace to your Heart!
