THIS WEEK'S SERMON

Hold Fast to Jesus

May 17, 2026

Most people want a version of Jesus they can reshape to fit their preferences — activist Jesus, therapist Jesus, political Jesus. But Paul refuses to let us reduce Him. In Colossians 2, he declares that “all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form” in Christ. Jesus is not partly God or merely God-like. He is the eternal “I AM” wrapped in flesh and blood. He slept, cried, suffered, and was tempted like us — yet He also forgave sins, calmed storms, defeated demons, and walked out of His own grave.

And that truth reaches directly into your life. Paul says we were spiritually dead, unable to rescue ourselves. But Jesus became what we are so we could become alive in Him. At the cross, He took the record of our guilt and nailed it down forever. Then He disarmed the powers of darkness and reclaimed what humanity lost in Eden. This Sunday we’ll behold the wonder of the God-man: the sympathetic Savior who understands your weakness and the victorious King who breaks condemnation.
