Because Jesus was tempted in every way he has a heart that is able to sympathise.

Jesus' joy in serving us and rescuing us

It is impossible for the affectionate heart of christ to be exaggerated or over celebrated.

There’s only ONE place in the four gospels where Jesus tells us about his own heart. Where he pulls back the veil and lets us see into the core of who he is.

Clarity on where to serve often starts with answering the question what needs do I see and how can I meet them?

Through Christ we are totally different people. The Old has Gone, we are now living a new life. We have been raised with him, we are now brand new people. We are glorious and our brand new nature needs to be in the driving seat.

There isn’t a place where Jesus isn’t authorised/allowed to act and rule. No limitation, no restriction.  The courage and confidence is the rock solid foundation of the words ALL authority.

Legalism is the attempt to earn acceptance or strengthen God’s love via obedience. Legalism looks wise desirable and attractive, but unlike the freedom found in Jesus, legalism creates harsh self reliance, an undesirable life, a tight unattractive restrictive life.

COLOSSIANS 2:6-15- The full deity of Christ, and His sufficiency in salvation by faith. For us: do we believe in Christ for our fulness? What other “false gods” are we tempted to add on? What other “gods” are we using as substitute saviours?

The suffering of Paul but the mystery of CHRIST:” in YOU the hope of Glory” as an encouragement. For us: How does believing in “Christ in us the hope of Glory” impact our daily lives? COLOSSIANS 1:24-2:5
