The Beauty of the Church as the Kingdom of Christ
A KINGDOM LIKE NO OTHER
On Sunday, guest preacher Mike Davis from our sending church, Sovereign Grace Church of Orange, preached from Colossians 1:13-14. He helped us to behold the beauty of the church as the kingdom of Christ. What makes this kingdom better and more beautiful than all the other kingdoms of the world? It is ruled by Christ, the amazing King who is supreme in power and abounding in love. It is a place of redemption, hope, and forgiveness freely given while the kingdom of this world is characterized by condemnation, enslavement, and hopelessness. Its citizens are a special people who proclaim the excellencies of the King and live out the beautifully strange culture of his kingdom. When we behold this beauty, there’s nowhere else we’d ever want to be. Listen to this message to learn more about the kingdom without comparison.
