The Beauty of Transformation

Preacher:
Series:
Passage: Colossians 3:1-4
Service Type:

The process of transformation is really quite simple.
Set your minds on things above in order to renew your mind; for example:
1.)Meditate and contemplate on God and His Word.
2.)Keep your mind in communication with God via prayer.
3.)Involve your mind in spiritual worship via frequent assembling with other.
4.)Center your mind on Jesus via the Lord's Supper and your mind will gradually be renewed!

With renewed minds, it becomes possible to put off the old, and put on the new!
1.)To put off the old man with its sins.
2.)To put on the new man patterned after the example of Christ.

In our efforts, we are not alone; God is at work with us! (Philippians 1:6; 2:12-13)

God wants to give us a complete "make over". He has provided the means (Jesus'blood) to remove the deformity of sin. He provides the tools (Bible Study, Prayer, Fellowship) to fashion a new person.

Are we making good use of the mercies of God?

In light of God's wonderful grace, this is our "reasonable" service. Shall we not prove to the world that God's will is "good, acceptable, and perfect"?
