Colossians 2:8-10 / David VanAcker

8 See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, 10 and you have been filled in him, who is the head of all rule and authority.

The big idea of this sermon is that all ideas have consequences. What we believe determines how we act. False beliefs take us captive. True beliefs, which are always rooted in Jesus, set us free. The main takeaway is to see that no one takes us captive with false beliefs and to seek the freedom that is found only in the Truth of Christ.

Memory Verse

Isaiah 40:28-29 Have you not known? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. ²⁹He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might he increases strength.
