Colossians 2:6-10 | Week 7

Colossians 2:6-10 | October 5, 2025 | Pastor Todd Smith

In this powerful message, we're called to examine our spiritual walk and guard against the subtle dangers of worldly philosophies. The key scripture, Colossians 2:6-10, reminds us to 'walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him.' This passage warns us about being taken captive by empty deceit and human traditions that aren't aligned with Christ. We're challenged to reflect on how we received Christ initially - with humility, surrender, and joy - and to continue living that way daily. The message draws an interesting parallel between spiritual kidnapping and physical captivity, emphasizing the grave danger of straying from Christ's teachings. As believers, we're encouraged to develop deep roots in God's Word, remain teachable, and overflow with gratitude. This serves as a powerful defense against the allure of humanistic thinking that can lead us astray. The relevance for our lives is clear: we must stay alert, discerning truth from error, and remember that in Christ, we have all we need for life and godliness.
