Colossians 2:4-5 Rejoicing in the Firmness of Your Faith
Sound the alarm! I think I’m losing my mind! Have things ever been so out of control in your life you just want to pull the covers over your head and throw in the towel? Have you ever panicked about missing an appointment only to find out that it was scheduled on a different day? And you wonder how you could be so silly to get so worked up about such a thing. Stressing over nothing. Sometimes when you don’t have sufficient information or the information you have is wrong, we can get worked up, stressed out, become anxious over nothing. And this is what the church in Thessalonica was facing. And as we will find today, Paul wrote to encourage them, and to warn them and remind them that God is sovereign and all powerful. I think it’s good for us to be reminded in the same way. It’s good for us to be reminded of key doctrines and most importantly, the gospel.
