When a debt is paid off the bill may be stamped Paid in Full, or even a mortgage may be burned. In Colossians Paul writes of a handwritten debt being nailed to the cross. A dramatic word image of what Jesus did for us.
Colossians 2,1:15-19
Proverbs 11:15,17:18
Acts 12:23
Hebrews 10:31,8:12,7:22
Psalm 103:12
Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:
- How in debt are we before God?
- How serious is that debt?
- Why is it so difficult to take on someone else's debt?
- Why is our salvation like burning a mortgage?
- What specific encouragements were we given so as to not desecrate the cross and what God has done through Christ?
