Through thoughtful reflection on Colossians 1:21–23, this sermon by Br. Thomson B Thomas explores the divine pleasure found in the reconciliation of believers to God through Jesus Christ. It unpacks our past alienation, present reconciliation, and future purpose—being made holy and blameless—urging us to continue in faith as proof of true salvation.
This sermon explores the concept of divine pleasure in reconciliation based on Colossians 1:19-20, discussing how God desires to reconcile all things to Himself through Christ. Br. Thomson examines this reconciliation in three aspects: its essential requirement (Christ as mediator), its extent (things in heaven and earth), and its means (the blood of Christ’s cross).
