Two Things

 November  26 – Two Things -  Col 1:2

 

     Paul was commending the saints at Colossae for two things.  That they had an unshakeable faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and that they loved one another.  These two things are so important for Christian growth and maturity.

     To be a reproducer in the faith your devotional life must be consistent.  You have to know your God.  You must be able to talk to Him and He must be able to talk to you.  People have come to me time and time again asking for the secret of success to becoming a more stable and mature Christian.  The answer is prayer and Bible Study.

     Out of these two elements develop love and devotion for the saints.  John says in 1 Jn 4:7-8, that the Christian must love one another.  Jesus Himself said, that people will know that we are His disciples by the way that we love one another.  I hope you will be found with these two things, “faith in Christ and love for the saints.
