Before you begin
Study overview
God has sent his son, Jesus Christ, into the world to reconcile everyone to himself.
Our purpose
Study Objective
* Colossians 1:19-23
- God, in all his fullness, was pleased to live in Christ because it is through Christ’s death that all are reunited/reconciled to him.
- We know Jesus Christ is the way to the Father (John 14:6), so reconciliation to the Father is through Christ.
* Acts 15:16-18
- When we think all is lost and there is no more hope, God will return to rebuild in us what he first established.
- He wants all his remnants to return to him.
* Ephesians 1:7-10
These mysteries were made known to us as a plan—as what he established from the very beginning—to unite all things in him, things in heaven and on earth.
* 2 Corinthians 5:18-20
- All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation
