In Colossians 2:6 we find the first of four essentials for restoring the church's battle front against the world: "As you therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him."

How does one truly receive Christ? How does this govern our "walk in Him"? That's our focus as we continue our series, "Truth Above All" from Colossians chapter two.

Much of the problem of prayer in our time is the lack of reverence. Does this reflect today's growing irreverence for fatherhood, both human and divine?

How can we ever justify seeking to advance the kingdom of our own self-will when Jesus himself submitted to the Father's kingdom priorities?

James and Job both tell us a great deal about the true meaning of submission to the will of God.

Many postmodern Evangelicals chafe at the idea of utter dependence upon the Father for everything.

Does "forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors" mean that we are saved by this work? No, Jesus had something else in mind: God's anger with an unforgiving spirit.

The last part of Jesus' model prayer is perhaps the most misunderstood. Ironically, it is also a prayer that most Evangelicals cannot honestly pray.

In Colossians 2:5 Paul says, I am "rejoicing to see your good order and the steadfastness of your faith in Christ." In the original, the words for "good order" and "steadfastness" are both military terms. The sense is this: Maintain an orderly and disciplined array as soldiers of Christ. Stay in your battle positions. Don't break ranks. Maintain a solid and fortified front against the enemy of your souls. That's our focus this week as we continue our series titled "Truth Above All" from Colossians chapter two.

Last week's message, "The Atheists' Christmas Billboard Myth," prompted some listeners to ask, "Did you know about the Catholic billboard at the other end of the Lincoln Tunnel? Why didn't you mention this good thing along with the bad?"

Yes we knew about it. But with all love and respect, we must say on the authority of God's Word that it is not a good thing. Why? Because just like the atheists' billboard, this one also propagates deadly myths about Christ's coming into the world.
