The Uniform You Wear | Colossians 2:1-10

  • Summary

  • Pastor Bart Blair explores the concept of identity in Christ using the metaphor of a uniform. He begins by describing a youth soccer team wearing distinctive pink jerseys, emphasizing how uniforms identify team membership and unity of purpose.


    Blair then delves into Colossians 2:1-10, where Paul addresses the church in Colossae. Paul expresses deep concern for their spiritual well-being, urging them to remain rooted in Christ and not be swayed by false teachings or philosophies.


    The sermon highlights several key points:


    1. Believers should be unified in love and understanding of Christ.

    2. All wisdom and knowledge are found in Christ, not in secret mysteries or human traditions.

    3. Christians must be careful not to be deceived by seemingly reasonable arguments that lead away from the gospel.

    4. Followers of Jesus should be deeply rooted in Him, not easily swayed by cultural winds.

    5. The fullness of God dwells in Christ, and believers are filled with His presence.


    Blair emphasizes that our primary identity should be in Christ, not in careers, hobbies, or worldly success. He warns against putting on the wrong "uniform" - seeking identity in empty pursuits rather than in Jesus.


    The pastor concludes by reminding listeners that our true identity comes from Christ's sacrifice on the cross. While it's humbling, it should also motivate believers to represent Jesus well in the world.


    Overall, the sermon challenges Christians to examine where they find their identity and to ensure they are wearing the right "uniform" - one that clearly identifies them as followers of Christ.
