Colossians 1:12-14
Colossians 1:12-14 - "...giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins."
***A relationship with Christ is all we need for victorious living
***The gospel of Jesus Christ - the intersection of time and eternity where you find yourself in the presence of the resurrected Christ
***Salvation is the beginning of a new life
***Paul gives three reasons to be thankful
**The Father has qualified them to share in His inheritance
**The Father has delivered them from the power of darkness
**The Father has carried them into the kingdom of His son
***Wherever there is sin, there is the dominion of darkness
Matthew 6:21 -"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also"
***Your redemption ws paid for by Jesus a long time ago, but it is appropriated by you today
***We are powerless over sin until we give our life completely to Christ
***By God's mercy, He provides redemption through Jesus' blood
***Christians are not better than non-Christians. They have recognized their need and turned to God for help
