The Supremacy of Christ, pt. 2

Colossians 1:15-20 The Supremacy of Christ, pt. 1

Fairlea Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church — Thu, 21 Feb 2019 18:11:00 +0000

Why does false teaching seem so attractive and find its way into the church? Because we forget that Jesus is supreme over any pleasures to be found in creation and over any works that we try to add to our salvation.

Jesus is Lord of Creation.

Jesus is Lord of Salvation.
