A study on Colossians 1:21-23

If you missed the sermon you can pick it up here: K.I.S.S.

  1. What is ‘the whole Gospel?’ – Discuss.
  2. Why does Paul describe humanity as alienated and hostile in mind, enemies of God, evil etc. and why do we need to tell people that?
  3. What does it mean to be: a) reconciled, b) presented to God, c) holy, d) blameless and e) above reproach?
  4. What might stop us from continuing in the faith?
  5. Spend some time, as a group, in prayer: for each other; our fellowship and the lost.
