From One Kingdom to Another

Pastor Joel explores Colossians 1:12-14, emphasizing the transformative work of God in transferring believers from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of His beloved Son. He centers on the importance of gratitude and worship as responses to God's work of redemption. Pastor Joel emphasizes that believers possess complete forgiveness through Christ's blood, an inheritance as adopted children of God, and a new identity that comes with responsibilities. Rather than viewing our relationship with God as merely receiving marching orders or groveling for forgiveness, we are called to rest in the complete redemption already accomplished and to worship God for His goodness. He challenges believers to move beyond performance-based thinking and embrace the pure, complete, and perfect forgiveness available in Christ, culminating in a call to remember Christ's work through communion.
