Colossians: Paid in Full

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?

Jesus Rose from the Dead?... Are You Serious??... Yes!!!

Sermon discussion topics for parents to use with their children:

• Why do we believe some people when they tell us something is real or it really happened?
• Why do the facts of Jesus' resurrection and the eyewitness accounts point to the fact that He did rise?
• Why do you and I need a risen Savior?

Resurrection, Really!

We Christians make a huge counter cultural claim: a man who was dead three days rose again and is still alive and that man was the Son of God. And we have proof!!

Sermon discussion questions for parents to use with their children:

• What is the historical evidence for the resurrection?
• Why were the actions of Christ's enemies actually helpful in proving His resurrection?
• What is the significance of the actions and convictions of the apostles after the resurrection?
