Pastor Richard "Buddy" Wimberly "Christ Our Life" Colossians 3:1-4

• Distractions can take away from our relationship with Christ
• Our lives are hidden with Christ, and Christ is seated on the right hand of the Father.
• We shouldn't worry about things of this world; we need to see first the kingdom of God.
• The concern of our life should be on heavenly things.
• We need to cast our cares on the one who cares and can do something about it.
• What matters are heavenly things. Spiritual things need to be a priority.
• We have new life because Christ has risen.
• Our sin was placed in the tomb with Christ. When Christ was resurrected, we were also resurrected.
• In God's sight we are seen with the righteousness of Christ.
• We're just here temporarily. We shouldn't make mountains out of mole hills.
• Our righteousness isn't in who we are, but in the fact that we're with Him.
• The things of this life will drag you down.
• If you think of things above, the temporary things of this world will lose their priority.
• Our sins were crucifed with Christ. We've already been judged, convicted, and sentenced. Christ took our penalty.
• We share in His life because we partook of His suffering.
• It's all about Jesus. Jesus offered it to us freely so His life becomes ours.
• We can't hold on to both carnal and spiritual things.
