TITLE: Jesus is Honored

Scripture: Col. 1:15-22

I. JESUS IS SUPREME (1:15-17)

When we say Jesus is preeminent what do we mean? He is (first in everything).

What does it mean that He is supreme?

        1. He is the (authority over all creation). [v.16]
        2. He is (before all things). [v.17a]
        3. He holds (all things together). [v.17b]

II. JESUS IS THE HEAD (1:18)

As head Jesus controls every part of the church and gives it (life and direction).

III. JESUS IS THE FUTURE (1:19-22)

“There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we
must be saved.” Acts 4:12

Verse 21: We were (enemies).
Verse 22: We have been made (holy and blameless).
Verses 23-24: (Stand firm) (Don’t drift).

Two things to conclude:

        1. Make Christ (first in everything).
        2. (Refocus) our attention on Christ
