The Work Of Redemption
Text: Colossians 1:20
The apostle Paul took great pains to present the work of redemption Christ came to do. Three aspects may highlighted:-
1. It involves deliverance from the power of darkness (Colossians 1:13).
2. It results in being conveyed into the kingdom of the Lord Jesus Christ (Colossians 1:13).
3. There is full forgiveness of sins (Colossians 1:14).
THE WORK OF RECONCILIATION
There was another piece of work that Paul highlighted. The following text has great richness of thought.
“And by Him to reconcile all things to Himself, by Him,
whether things on earth or things in heaven,
having made peace through the blood of His cross.”
Colossians 1:20
