Holding Fast to Christ's Sufficiency | Dr. Stephen Conley

Text: Colossians 2:16-23   Consider the Insufficiency of Legalism (2:16-17) Following religious rules does not produce godliness; it can lead to self-righteousness and judgmentalism. Look to Christ as the substance of your faith!   Consider the Insufficiency of Mysticism (2:18-19) Worshipping angels and searching for visions will lead us away from the truth of the Gospel. Hold fast to Christ, the fountain head of all wisdom and fulfillment!   Consider the Insufficiency of Asceticism (2:20-23) Self-made religion and discipline for the sake of the flesh leads to enslavement by the flesh. Depend on Christ to deliver you from your sin and equip you in the battle against temptation!
