Enough: Jesus Plus Nothing
As part of his sermon series on the book of Colossians, this week John warns us of common ways people try to supplement Jesus with other things to get salvation. In the end, we are reminded that Jesus is all we need and nothing else can add to our salvation!
JESUS ISN’T JUST ONE MORE THING TO BE WORSHIPPED AND ADORED, HE IS THE ONLY ONE TO BE WORSHIPPED AND ADORED.
JESUS TRANSFORMS ALL THINGS! (OUR THINKING, OUR CHARACTER OUR BEHAVIOR, OUR HOMES, AND OUR RELATIONSHIPS)
