What does the Bible say baptism’s purpose is? In this lesson, we answer this question in Colossians chapter 2 and consider how this passage helps us to better appreciate what God does in baptism, and also equips us to talk to others who do not believe or understand that baptism is essential for salvation.
While some may find themselves in circumstances that are more naturally encouraging and enjoyable, we may find ourselves in circumstances that push us to our emotional and spiritual limits. In this lesson, we consider how Jeremiah's example equips us to find greater strength in the Lord at times when we are pushed to discouragement and despair.
In this lesson, we consider the final instructions given to Titus at the end of chapter 3 particularly. As we've been instructed to be gentle and peaceable, we are also warned to have nothing to do with unprofitable arguments and brethren who stir up division. This is the last lesson in a series in the book of Titus.
For those God has redeemed, it can be difficult to fully grasp the reality of what God has done for us. But in this passage, we are challenged to more fully appreciate the reality of who we were apart from God and the nature of what He did to save us.
