Listen "Living Justified- 12th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Colossians 2:6-19"

Episode Synopsis

We reach the turning point of the letter. Paul is encouraging the believers to live a justified life, one that is only shaped by the work of God.**apologies, the recording comes part way into the message due to some technical issues. the key part that is messed is how we looked at the full definition of the words: walk, rooted, built up, and established. To walk in not just about movement but comes with the idea of a clearly defined pathway made from one who has gone before. Rooted is agricultural and pushes the idea of being fully nurished. Built up is architectural and is based on the idea of blueprints, constructed with a specific purpose and design. established is a sure footedness and steadfastness. all of this comes together to define what life looks like when we live justified. A work of God, not of us.
