160 ~ COME ALIVE WITH JESUS - Part 3

Hi, and welcome to the real science and podcast.

We are a local church based here in Chennai.

We are so glad you are with us and hope that this will

encourage Inspire, and in still fresh bathing.

As we continue our new series for the Lenten season.

Come alive in Jesus, we pray that you will come alive.

As you hear these words we have Jaron Nicholas.

Sharing the Word of God With Us to do and how we need to come

alive, to them to come alive, in the new, we have to let go of

the world. I pray that we will allow the

Holy Spirit to reveal the dead parts of our life so we can

embrace them. Are you ready to be transformed

into the moon? Hello, everyone.

It is good to be back with you as usual.

So, we've started series called come alive.

And today, the team is come alive to experience the newer,

come alive in the year. So, So we will get on that.

I scripture that we are focusing on today is Colossians chapter

Colossians 2:20

2, verse 20, all the way to chapter 3 verse 17, but let me

go ahead and pray and then we'll get started.

Heavenly Father, we thank you so much for being us together.

Father, we thank you that. We are part of the new creation

that you have initiated Lord and we thank you that I started a

new creation that you have brought us together in this

Community of Faith that we are part of that.

We are saying father, but we ask that You would use us to show

the people that we come into contact with Lord.

What it means to be human, what is this new Humanity that you

have started? Lord that we are a part of why?

This always we thank you for the safety and the comfort with

which we meet with which We Gather in Your Name.

Lord. And we remember the people

around this world that do not have this Comfort or safety.

And that many times there is anxiety, or maybe even fear when

they think about Gathering or two, because of their

circumstances, their surroundings, what we acid, you

would protect them that you would guard them, that you would

fill them with your courage and that you would give them ways to

be a community, even if they cannot meet in person.

So either we love you. We thank you for how gracious

that you are to us. And father, we ask that you

would truly speak to us through this message, that you would

give me the words to speak that I would help me to recognize

that it is you, that is orchestrating it, this is you.

That is speaking and none of this is because of me.

So father, we come to you humbly.

We your children come to you. To see what day you have for us.

Lord, in Jesus name, we pray. Amen.

So I just mentioned so our team has been Come alive and then

today is come alive to the new come alive in the experience of

the new. The passage we're going to be

focusing on is Colossians chapter 2, 20 all the way to 317

Colossians 2 · chapter mention

rather than read the entire almost 22 verses up front.

As we go through little by little, I read the passage and

then we'll talk about it and then we'll go on like that.

Just a little background for a Colossians.

So this is a letter that the apostle Called wrote to the

church at colossae. So it's called the letter to the

Colossians is very likely that he was in prison while he wrote

this letter. And this letter was likely a

response to visit. He received from a first

epaphras. Is the person that actually

planted the church in the colossi.

So Paul didn't actually planned this church so and so that first

tells them about the fact that the church is doing well.

But he also talks to him about the couple challenges that they

might be facing. Yes, this you community of

Believers is coming together, coming together in this really,

I mean, in this Pagan Society where these had these new people

are come to Believe In Christ. So in response to that, visit

that from a Packers that he got in prison, he pins this letter

to the Colossians. So it's his letter to this kind

of like, New community of Believers.

So the things he has to say is important.

The warnings he has is important for us.

Even us at, we are sign, we're fairly new fairly new church.

So I think there's a lot for us to hear.

So we will start reading at Colossians 2 chapter 20.

They only read like four verses and then we'll talk about it.

So this is chapter 2, 22, the end of chapter 2.

Isaiah 2 · chapter mention

So since you died, Price to be Elemental, spiritual forces of

this world. Why?

I still you still belong to the world.

Do you submit to its rules? Do not handle.

Do not taste, do not touch these rules which have to do with

things that are all destined to perish with use are based on

merely human commands and teachings, such regulations have

an appearance of wisdom with their self-imposed worship their

false humility and their harsh treatment of the body.

But they lack Any value in restraining sensual Indulgence.

So he talked. He begins with this idea that

since you have died with Christ, right?

You died to the spirit of the world.

So the initial idea is you have died with Christ, you've died to

this world and then he kind of focus on what it is that you

have died to. So here in this view versus the

focus, our regulations or rules. So one of the concerns he has

for this church in colossae is It.

He is concerned that they will be drawn to Judaism with its

list of regulations. And like when he says, do not

taste or do not touchy stock, probably talking about the list

of Purity laws, they had and the list of dietary laws they had.

So he is concerned that they are being drawn into it because even

being run into Judaism and The Lawns would be something that's

being taken away from what Christ has done, so that is one

of his concerns. So, In this letter, if you read

the rest of it, you'll see that on one side, there are some

concerns about paganism. But on one side, there are some

concerns about Judaism as well. So he's kind of highlighting his

concerns about them being drawn back into these laws and

Judaism. And he goes on to talk about how

these laws, really don't have the desired effect that you are

looking for. They are such regulations are

have the appearance of wisdom, what?

They have an illusion of it but it is just self-imposed worship.

Worship or false humility and really have no.

Value in, what do you feel like you're accomplishing many times

when we follow these rules? We feel like it is going to make

life better or it is me going to make us more spiritual or it's

going to make us more holy but they really don't have that

effect. So he is kind of clubbed this

these regulations these rules into this idea that they also

belong to the world. So we here living in this

present time. I mean many of us probably

Really aren't? I mean, there might be just

listening, I don't know. Maybe some of you that are

listening and practice Judaism, really, not aware of, but it's

like that. We, I myself have never had to

practice any kind of dietary laws any kind of Purity laws,

but This this applies to us because we many times come up

with our own laws or we follow laws that our culture has what

the seems like as impose on us. So this kind of applies to that

to some laws could be one of your last could be, you put put

career first, could be a lot. Now, the law could be time is

money, is something that people say, all the time.

That could be a lot at we follow, we could have lots

around relationships or friendships One of the lies that

we might have, is we only put time into relationships that

increase our Network, I could be one there in terms of culture

are probably lots of other laws or even in our church, we may

have our own laws like don't associate with that person.

Because of this, in this, this person can't come to the front

door of the house. They can only come in the back

door of the house. There are lots of laws that we

Can do follow many some, maybe carrier, some cultural some

personal that we feel is going to make us better or make us,

holy or make a spiritual. But what we see in this passage

is that these are things that we have died to.

So these are things that belong in the world and Paul start out

saying that these little things that you have died to, they have

they do not have the effect that Looking for, they don't really

have the value that you're looking for.

So now when we move on to that, he will see that he contrasts

since you died with Christ to something else.

So this is now I'm going to read from chapter 3 and I believe

this is verse 1 through 4. So since then you have been

raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where

Christ is seated, at the right hand of God, set your minds on

things above, not on Earthly things for you died, and your

life. Life is now hidden with Christ

in God. When Christ, who is your life

appears? Then you will also appear with

him in glory. So you see, there are two

parallels, kind of going on here in verse 20 since you died with

Christ. Now here since you have been

raised with Christ, so Paul is kind of hitting home.

The fact that when Christ died, we died with him and when he was

raised, we were raised with them.

So we have kind of and what we have died too, is he Gents the

world in verse 20 and then what we are alive, and right now is

set your things on things above, he seated, at the right hand of

God, right? Not on Earthly things.

So, these things that are about, sometimes they may be cancelled.

I said, you take mind on Heavenly things, right?

So we have this contrast going on here.

So, these regulations and laws belong to the things that we are

dyed to To they have no real value, they can't achieve what

we want. And so we have died to that in

the world and then now he's talking about things that really

do have values, the things that we are alive and that we've been

raised up. And so, and these are the things

of heaven or these are the things that are not worldly.

These are the things that are above above as in.

These are the things that are in the same place where Christ is

seated, at the right hand and then in verse 4, he ends with

this. Insurance rate.

That when Christ, who is your life right appears?

Then you will also appear with him in glory.

So like this issuance that we have eternal life and that we

will be with Christ as part of our Salvation.

So now he sets up these two parallels die to the world

raised up in Christ or die with Christ and raised up with Christ

and he kind of fleshes out these ideas even more.

As we read further on in chapter 3, So this is, I'm going to read

verses 5 to 11 and chapter 3. So, put to death therefore

whatever. Belongs to your Earthly nature,

sexual immorality, impurity lust, evil, desires and greed,

which is idolatry because of these, the wrath of God is

coming. You used to walk in these ways

in the life you once lived, but now you must also rid yourself

of all such things as these Anger, rage, malice slander and

filthy language from your lips do not lie to each other.

Since you have taken off your old self with these practice,

I'm just going to read you a verse 9.

So he kind of highlights here, right?

What he beans of this world, what?

He means of the things that you have died too.

So, put to death, therefore, and he starts men talking about

sexual immorality, lust impurity, and then he goes on to

talk about Anger and rage in Malice and Slaughter slander and

filthy language. So he kind of clubs two areas

here. So we are talking about sexual

immorality or sexual impurity so pretty much sex.

And then here we talk about filthy talk and slander and

Malice, and rage, many of these things are expressed in speech,

right? So when he's writing to this

church, and he's talking about what that, these old things that

we are to put away. Are the two things that he

deliberately chooses to mention our sex and speech to things

that are gifts from God. However, have been painted, and

use in ways that they were not meant to be used both these

things have the capacity to, I mean, to really ruin lives, but

more. So, in the context of a church

when these things are Widespread or when they happen, they have

the ability to tear down this community that you're trying to

build so many times these practices cause divide, right?

And These aren't just struggles that the church in colossae was

facing, okay? He didn't just write about the

sexual impurity just because that was what was happening in

the Pagan world around them. I mean, he did mention to them,

but it is also to us because this is kind of what is

happening. All around us in the context of

pollen colossae, if you wanted to commit sexual, Sin.

You can kind of, I had to get up from your house and go to a

temple and engage in Acts that you thought was worshipful but

they really weren't. It was just sexual immorality.

Nowadays, to be honest, you don't have to leave anywhere in

the comfort of your home. In your bed, you have a 6 inch

screen that brings everything to you, right?

So, it is important that these are addressed.

These are talk about, because This is the kind of things that

is important to scripture because here are scriptures

highlighting that. These are the things that we put

to that in the time that he had to write a colossal, he

mentioned two very important things that was necessary to put

to death, sexual impurity and wrongful speech, right?

It is important for us to take that into consideration to the

mere fact that he mentions, this means that it is important for

us to have a good look at this. And At church, we might fall

into this notion that. That there's no sexual impurity

because you're like, I'm married, I don't sleep around.

I waited till I got married to be with my wife and you might

kind of think of those things and kind of brush it under the

carpet and then move on. But then we really can't move on

from that because the thing that Paul clubs it with is speech,

right. There is a lot of speech that

Happens at church, right? And it is important to keep in

mind that a lot of the speech that could be happening, are the

things that we that need to be put to death.

Even simple things that we think are simple like gossip.

Even the mere fact that I said, simple things, you know I don't

have the right idea about the biggest things like gossip could

really bring Division and strife into a community.

So That is something that Paul wanted them to be, are aware of

and that's something that we have to be aware of.

This is, I mean, it really shows us that God is really concerned

with our speech and God is really concerned it.

When it comes to matters of sex, these things are important to

him and the way in which we used to view these things before we

were raised in Christ, has to be put to death.

And if they are not put to that, they will not only affect us but

they affect the Greater Community, right?

You might be telling yourself that there are secret sins that

you can do in the privacy of your home.

That doesn't affect anyone else. But the thing with any kind of

sin, as it always affects your relationship if it affects you.

It affects your relationships, there is always a way it affects

something else, so these things should be put to that.

So these are the things of the world is talking about.

These are the things that we have died to, that is mentioning

and so it should cause us to pause and think about these two

specific areas that is calling us to put to death because they

are important to consider uncomfortable.

They might be, but it is important to consider because

they are important to God. So now in verses, so do not lie

to each other since you have taken off.

So again, this thing, he specifically says, do not like

one of the reasons he's probably highlighting.

This is, Our Gospel is a Gospel of Truth, right?

So any time, there are lies, are being told in the church, it

undistributed almost understood, the gospel.

So it is one of its. So it is very important.

I understand that along with all at the speech that has Put the

debt lying has to be put to death as well because our gospel

is a Gospel of Truth and when there are lies it undoes that.

So now starting with verse in the middle of verse 9, okay.

Since you have taken off your old self with its practices and

have put on the new self which is being renewed in the

knowledge, in the image of the Creator.

Here, there is no Gentile or Jew circumcised or uncircumcised

Barbarian. Viridian City and slave or free,

but Christ and all and Christ is in all.

So, Paul here is bringing to mind imagery that was probably

common in the first century early church.

So during baptism when the new car believer, we go into the

Waters of baptism and come out when they came out of the Waters

of baptism, they were given a new white room to kind of

symbolize this new creation or this new person that had become

so they would take off. Close.

They've been baptized in input on this new wide room to

symbolize that. So that is the imagery that

policy is here. It's talking about take off your

old clothes. This old self used to be and put

on the new. And this new one is has a new

context, right? The you New Life, the cop

primary context is that in the knowledge, in the image of its

creator. Meaning you are an image bearer

of the one true God. That is the new context of our

life. The new context of this new

being that you put on is you are an image bearer of the one, true

God. And then the first thing, he

mentions that he talks about putting on this new life, is

that there is no Gentile or Jew. There is no slave or free.

There is no circumcised or uncircumcised, right?

But Christ is all and it's all. So the first thing that comes

down or like, barriers that divide us humans, many times

location and ethnicity and Heritage are or nationality.

A lot of things that tend to divide but in this new creation,

when you put on this Euro, the first thing that goes away are

these things that divide us with and the thing that comes up to

unites is recognition that we are image bearers in this

Community of Faith, we are image bearers and that Christ is in

all of us. So that becomes a thing that

unifies us right? And it is not the divisions.

It's not the things that make us different that matter anymore,

but it is. This one thing that unifies us,

there is no longer division. So, one of the first things he

tackles as life in this new creation of this new life, we

put on our the divisions that we have that, so they can no longer

so they can no longer be any division.

So, so it's part of the old life.

We see that he tackles the laws and regulations and then Sexual

immorality, and then speech, and then with the new life, he

mentioned about, setting your mind on Heavenly things and then

put on this new self. And then the first thing you

down hose is there are no longer divisions, right?

And so we're going to read on from 12% 17.

So therefore as God's chosen people, holy and dearly loved

clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness humility,

gentleness and patience. Bear with each other and forgive

one another. If any of you have a grievance

against someone forgive as the Lord forgave you, and over all

these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in

perfect Unity, Let the Peace of Christ rule in your hearts since

as members of one body, you were called to peace.

And be thankful. Let the message of Christ dwell

among you richly as you teach and admonish.

Punish one another with all wisdom through psalms hymns and

songs for the spirit singing to God with gratitude in your

hearts. He kind of fleshes out what he

means by these heavily things are things that are above or

things that are not worldly, right?

So these heavily things he's talking about our compassion.

Kindness humility gentleness patience, right?

And above all love. So he is setting out the things

that we should be dwelling on. Right.

The things that we should be living in.

So we have died in Christ, right?

So we have died to the regulations to pretty much and

the immoral speech or sexual impurity.

And then we have been raised to this new life.

That things, aren't Heavenly things.

And these are those things that he's talking about compassion.

Kindness humility gentleness about love and then he talks

about how you treat people, right?

He says, if anyone has a grievance against you, forgive

them as the Lord forgave you? So, he setting up and expanding

on what this new life is what it means.

To clothe ourselves. In this new creation that we've

been created, and this is what it looks like so.

And then, after you tell us these things, right?

And he talks about love He goes on to give a glimpse of what

life in this community of Believers in Colossus should

look like and what our life as a commuter Believers here should

look like to write, says, Let the Peace of Christ rule in your

hearts since as members of one body, you were called to Peace.

So, peace peace Among Us is one thing that you drool and be

thankful. That the message of Christ

dwell, among you richly as you teach and admonish one another

with all wisdom. Through psalms hymns and songs

from the spirit singing to God with gratitude in your hearts.

So this word of calculus in gratitude or mentioned.

You're right. That should be the way of life

in this community thankfulness and gratitude to God for what he

has done thankfulness and gratitude that because of him we

have died to the old world and because of him we have been

raised up into this new creation.

And the way we keep this community strong is through the

sharing of the word through worship together.

So all of these things, build, a strong Community, all of these

things, he's encouraging the church in colossae to take

pardon. So kind of the recap, right?

We started with We've died in Christ.

So we kind of died to the law and then you mention about your

you've been raised with Christ. And then when you erase, you

talked about the Heavenly you of mindset on have a few things.

And then he talked about because you have died in Christ, put

these things to death. So the things that were

important or the things that were part of our old life, he

said put to death, right? And you mentioned two things

sexual immorality and speech and Then he talked about what it

means to have this new life will be raised in this new life and

the things that govern the new life.

Our kindness gentleness meekness humility, love forgiveness,

right. All these things had the

standard. Those are the Heavenly things

that govern it. And then he talks a little bit

about what the group of Believers might look like who

are part of this new life. So All in all, when you look at

this. What Paul is really conveying to

us to the church is the gospel. The gospel does care about

eternity, right? However, more often than not the

gospels main concern throughout scripture is a life here on

Earth is how we live this life here, and that is what Paul is

talking about here. The gospel message that he wants

to convey to the church in colossae is that we have died in

Christ and that we have put to that those things and that we

have been raised and again. So as we've been raised, we are

part of this new creation. We have died and we have been

raised. So we have died to the world,

this old creation and we've been raised into this new order it.

The idea is very much that we've been East into almost a new way

to be human. A new way to be human, meaning

the most genuine and only way to be truly human, is in light of

the Gospel. Only way to be truly human, is

to be part of this new creation. That Christ is the firstborn of

that because of his that we have died to the old and because of

his resurrection we have been raised to the new.

So we are part of this new creation rate and the things

that Govern Us in this new creation, are not the things

that used to go. Unless, in the past, those

things are to be, put to death, the things that are the

governess, our kindness humility meekness love forgiveness, right

gathering together in worship, having an having thankfulness

and gratitude be the rhythm of our life.

Because of because we know that we are part of this new

creation, we know that we can generally be human because of

the work that Christ has done. for us as as I Was preparing the

sermon, I Probably for the first time in my life for at least the

first time in recent history. I was reminded again that I

indeed and part of this new creation, right?

And it made me look at things when they popped up a little

different. Some of the examples are a

couple examples I'm going to share with you or probably maybe

on the sillier side. But they were important to me

because that was kind of what I was going through when I was

Prepping for the sermon there, always distractions.

Primarily the 6 inch screen that we all have distractions.

Do go look at every notification distraction is to browse the

news after I was in the middle of prepping and I was thinking

through this idea that I'm New Creation when that distraction

popped up first. I found myself telling myself I

am dead. So anytime there was a

distraction to take me from what I was supposed to be doing.

I told myself I am dead I was actually Priced when it came

when that happened to me, but it made me feel like an

internalized, this to that, that I was learning for by starting

with scripture. So, this past couple days as it

as I've been prepping anytime. I was tempted to go to the phone

to distract myself. I said I am dead and I was able

to come back and stay on course and not the silly example.

I I chew my nails, right? Might be a very trivial example.

I don't have any crazy stories for you to it, but I found

myself saying and I was tempted to too many, too many ills.

I am dead and there was this reminder that I was dead to the

always. Am I live in the new creation

and I have self-control and when I've found it difficult to be

part of this new creation, right?

The thing. Govern, the new creation,

humility compassion, meekness are difficult things.

So when I was faced with those difficult things, I told myself

I'm alive because we are alive in those things and we can

function those things and let those things govern our lives.

So it is just my example. I was telling myself, it's when

things were pulling me back to the old told myself I was dead

when things were difficult as we Embrace, as we Moving forward in

the new life. I told myself.

I was alive to remind myself, right?

We live in a world that is constantly tugging at us.

Back to the old. We just have to step out the

door or turn on our 6 inch screens to know that it doesn't

look like a new creation around us.

It doesn't look like New Creation has been initiated so

the world reminds us in tries to pull us back.

So we taking the initiative and choosing to I believe that we

indeed are part of this new creation is an Act of Faith.

So faith is a big part in. This is just not believing God

for something, but in this case, faith is actively choosing to

believe that even though around us, it doesn't seem like New

Creation. Oh, we constantly being pulled

back into what was old. We in faith.

Believe that we truly are part of this new creation, that god

and goddess initiated through what Christ has done, right?

And so and that we can be this new creation in this world that

we can show the world around us that new creation indeed has

been initiated right and that people are welcome to be part of

this new creation. So now my wife shared something

with me which I think I really fleshes out this almost constant

tug-of-war that we have. So it's it's a story, a short

story or more like Imagery to help us understand.

So I'm going to read it to you and I'm going to kind of close

after that. So imagine yourself traveling

down a long Country Road, looking ahead on one side, you

see a high chain-link fence and on the other side, you see an

open field as you drive closer, you can see people behind the

fence and people in the field. You slow down to take a closer

look and you discover that the fence is actually part of a huge

cage. The people inside are trapped

with no way out. There is a man in the cage who

seems to be in charge and he is angry.

He shouts orders at the people telling them what to do.

Sometimes the people in the cage seem to protest but eventually

they do with the angry man tells them to do or what he tells them

to do. The cage is a picture of our

situation apart from Jesus, apart from Christ.

The angry man's name is sin and he reigns in the cage.

Syntel's, the people what to do? The whole world is a prisoner of

sin. But those who are in Christ have

died to sin, Paul uses his picture to describe what God

does for us in Christ. When you come to Faith In Jesus,

God moved you out of the cage and into the field.

God moved you from imprisonment to freedom from an old life, in

which sin was your master to a new life in which sin is no

longer in a position to control you.

Being in Christ puts you in a new position in relation to sin

sin is still your enemy, but it is no longer your master.

The angry man will still shout instructions across the road and

when he does, you will immediately feel that you should

do what he says after all. That's what you always did

before. But the fact of the matter is

that the angry man is is no longer your master.

You are under no obligation to do, what he says, you are not in

the cage. You are in the field, you are

free. Resistance to sin was ultimately

futile. When you were held hostage in

the cage, but out in the field, you are in a position to fight

and you can triumph over your enemy.

Every person is either indicator in the field.

You cannot be in both places at the same time and knowing where

you stand is a crucial part of discovering your new identity in

Christ. So We are part of New Creation,

just like that told you, right? Many times things.

Our old world sin are the old creation that we came out of is

constantly shouting barking orders at us.

And maybe our initial reaction is do it, because that's kind of

what we've always done. But we are part of this new

creation. We no longer need to listen to

those commands, right? For some of us, those shouts

come from all over the place many times.

The shouts are probably coming from your phone and they want

you to do something. It could be coming from people,

it could be coming from past experience, you'll be coming

from anywhere, but fact of the matter is we are part of this

new creation, we have a new master, our masters Christ and

our masters no longer sin. So kind of want to end with how

This, the passage ends up with over 17 and I'm going to leave

with you a couple of thoughts about what how they really

fleshes out, how to distinguish our old life from our new life,

okay? And it says, whatever you do,

whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord,

Jesus giving. Thanks to God the Father through

him, do it in the name of the Lord Jesus.

As I was reading a resource that was using to prep for this

message. It said, Could you put the

banner up in the name of the Lord?

Jesus to anything you do or do anything you say?

And it really got me thinking, because I think that would help

us to distinguish old from New, Right?

Could be in the name of the Lord Jesus yell angrily.

At our children. Could we in the name of the

Lord? Jesus?

Shame. Our spouse because we just don't

agree on something. Could we in the name of the

Lord, Jesus be rude to somebody because they were rude to us.

Right? Could we in the name of the

Lord? Jesus think about somebody else

when we are married. So we couldn't write, but could

be the name of the Lord Jesus show compassion when compassion

was not shown to us. Yes.

Could we in the name of the Lord?

Jesus be. Loving when what we have

received this hatred? Yes.

Could we in the name of the Lord?

Jesus. Show love to our children or be

gracious to them despite anything that has happened.

Yes. So let's keep that in mind.

As we come to the end of this, right?

Can we do, or say the things we say in the name of the Lord?

Jesus. So, thank you so much for

joining us and being with us. I want to say a word of Prayer.

Every father, we thank you so much for giving us this message.

Thank you so much for this. Reminder that we indeed are part

of a new creation that you initiated or we no longer have

to suffer under the old. But we can live in Freedom under

the new record so far, they help us to internalize this help us

to remember this Lord this week, and for the rest of our lives,

that you indeed have called us to this new creation that we are

part of Of this because of what you've done when we died with

you but more. So we have been raised into this

new creation with you and let the way we live.
