The True God Colossians 1:1-8

Colossians Church planted through Epaphras Under threat from false teaching Paul— “an Apostle” writes to help He writes down words from God

We Must Think Rightly about God In our culture the word “god” has no concrete meaning for many God is what is conceived in the imagination What if God—the true God, thinks differently about this matter?

We Must Think Rightly about God Apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of GOD GOD the FATHER of our LORD Jesus Christ Faith in Christ Jesus; Minister of Christ Told of love in the SPIRIT

We Must Think Rightly about God In the opening verses he mentions the three Persons of the Trinity “God eternally exists as three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and each person is fully God, and there is one God.” Wayne Grudem

We Must Think Rightly about God The Doctrine of the Trinity teaches that God is PERSONAL and that God has dwelt for ETERNITY in a relationship of LOVE God the FATHER; LORD Jesus—in reference to deity of Jesus

We Must Think Rightly about God Any faith that does not teach that God is ultimately personal cannot be true. The Trinity dwells in an eternal relationship of LOVE The Son is fully God (Col. 2:9)

We Must Think Rightly about God The Son has always been (John 1:1). This truth excludes any faith from being true that says there was time when he was not or that He is less than fully God. The Spirit is a Person as well who has existed for eternity (John 14:16)

We Must Think Rightly about God This eternal God who did not need us chose to create and ultimately save a people He is bringing them into oneness with Him; in an eternal, loving relationship with the Father, Son, and Spirit (John 1:12-13; Col. 1:12-13)

We Must Think Rightly about God The Doctrine of the Trinity makes possible salvation being a GIFT FROM GOD If God were not a trinitarian being, there would be no way for human sins ever to be forgiven.

We Must Think Rightly about God The problem with all other approaches of humans trying to appease God is that we do not recognize how big is our problem Something had to be done OUTSIDE OF US and something had to be done FOR US
