In the second part of the Family Values series, we read together 2 Timothy 3:10-4:5 to understand how the Proclamation of God's Word should be the center of all things in every church. However, 1 John 2:15-16 reminds us of our own fleshly desires, which motivate us to remove Scripture from the center of all things and replace it with something or someone else. Despite our sin in the Garden and today, Jesus overcame sin in the wilderness, submitting to the Father's will and using His Word to overcome Satan. For that reason, we have a Savior who stands in our place, providing us with victory over sin and temptation, which frees us to center all things on God's inspired, inerrant, and sufficient Word.
The Family Values series is a four-part series that addresses four biblical values that should mark every church. In this message, we examine Colossians 1:15-20 to learn that when the church gathers and scatters, the preeminent Christ should be the purpose of all things. We then consider how our own desires prevent us from putting Jesus in His proper place in our lives and in His church. It's only through the finished work of the risen Christ that we can have hearts in which Jesus is preeminent.
